Ash Bourchier named inaugural Farrer League Netball Player of the Year

Farrer League Netball Ash Bourchier Player of the Year Barellan Two Blues

Ash Bourchier, captain of the Barellan Two Blues, has been named the inaugural recipient of the Farrer League Netball Player of the Year award. The honor was determined by weekly votes from A-grade coaches.

Bourchier finished the season with 48 votes, narrowly defeating runner-up Ruby Gillard of East Wagga-Kooringal, who earned 45 votes. Bourchier demonstrated remarkable consistency by polling votes in every game she played, including two instances of receiving the maximum six votes.

This award adds to Bourchier’s existing accolades, which include winning the Marilyn Brooks Medal in both 2019 and 2023. Bourchier noted her surprise at the win, as she had not appeared on the leaderboards at the season's halfway mark.
