In a repeat of week two's final, the Ferns had to fight another titanic battle against Olivia MacDonald and Alaina Chacon, before sealing the win 2-1 (19-21,21-19,16-14).

In windy conditions on the weekend, Zeimann and Polley took an early 7-1 lead before MacDonald and Chacon came roaring back to level it up 7-7.

'It's a mental game, because we train with the girls all the time, and they beat us last weekend,” says Alice Zeimann.

'We're really stoked with how we handled that pressure.”

'For us, it's a real mental thing when we get to that 13-13 stage… we really have to keep the foot on the throat and keep doing our thing. We came out and defended really well and made some really big plays when we needed to,” says Shaunna Polley.

In the Men's Premier, Mount locals Sam and Ben O'Dea put on a clinic in a dominant first set that didn't give Tom Hartles and Tom Heijs a sniff.

'The biggest danger for us was going into cruise control. It was about figuring out when that was going to happen and stopping it, and making sure we were having fun.”

'It's home town, home crowd. We just know the beach, and play all over the world, so it's cool to come here and play some really cool events right here,” says Sam O'Dea.
