Despite going down 61-44 to Chiltern, Bushrangers' coach Bailey Lang said it was a special occasion nonetheless.

While A-grade netballer Sarah Robinson helped advocate for the round, it recognised Indigenous netballer Coby Surrey, who has played over 250 senior games at the club.

"It was very special to be a part of that," Lang said.

The Bushrangers called upon the talent of their B-grade side, with several players out due to illness.

Rachael Cavallin was strong in goals for the home side, while Aliza Robinson and Gina Garland also put up a good fight.

Lang pinpointed the first quarter as the downfall for the side.
