University of the West Indies (UWI) Revolution and Jetsetters 'A' will contest this year's final of the Jamaica Netball Association (JNA)/Supreme Ventures Divisional A League tomorrow, following semi-final victories over Ebony Strikers and Ravens 'A', respectively, on Tuesday.

UWI Revolution secured their spot in the final with an exciting 46-40 win against Ebony Strikers. Alicia Williams led the way for UWI Revolution with 34 goals from 47 attempts, and received support from Shawnett Kerr 12 goals from 19 tries. Lorraine Lewis, 28 goals from 40 attempts, Sandra Stephens, eight goals from 11 tries, and Yendi Edwards, three goals from six attempts, were the leading scorers for Ebony Strikers.

Jetsetters, who were demoted from the Super League last year, recorded a nail-biting 35-34 victory over Ravens 'A'.

The C. Lloyd Walker-coached Jetsetters, who led 23-18 at half time, achieved the win courtesy of Shantel Edwards' 22 goals from 28 attempts. Edwards received good support from Annette Miller, who netted 13 goals from 18 tries, as they had to stave off a good comeback from Ravens 'A' in the second half.

Phyllis Thompson, 17 from 18 attempts, Novlette Vassell, 11 goals from 14, and Keisha Clarke, six goals from eight tries, were the leading scorers for Ravens 'A'.
