The B team unfortunately had a tough draw however, the A team came away with 2 wins!
Girls Year 9-10 AFL
The 23rd of May was the inter round robin for the girls footy. These fantastic group of girls went into the day with nothing but positivity knowing that it was going to be a tough day due to numbers. The girls fought their way to a win against Eltham, Abbey Andrews kicking the opening goal in the first 30 seconds of the game and Ava Beck running out the mid field to secure the win. The second game was always going to be tough up against a full team of Viewbank, the Greensborough girls played with might as they came with in mere points, the buzzer beating them to it. Fantastic effort to all who played special mention to Saoirse, our ever reliable full back managing to keep Viewbank’s scores at bay.
YEAR 7/8 GIRLS AFL
On Tuesday 23rd May, the 7/8 Girls AFL team competed at the annual AFLW Gala Day held at Anthony Beale Reserve. The girls have been training at various lunchtimes since the start of term.
The girls were lucky enough to have Riley Wilcox, Western Bulldogs AFLW player- who got drafted at pick number 21 in the 2022 AFLW draft along for the day, where she helped coach the girls in both of their games.
The girls first came up against Viewbank. After a dominant first half, where they controlled much of the game- the girls came out winners, also getting to play a lot of different positions throughout the game.
The second game saw the girls face Charles Latrobe. Charles Latrobe were short a few players, so after the first half, Greensborough lent some players to make it a more even contest. Greensborough came away winners again, with lots of fun to be had!
The 7/8 Girls AFL team will now advance to the Northern Metropolitan Region Finals held on Friday 21st July at CT Barling Reserve.
