- The 7/8/9 Boys Red will take on Mount Barker this Tuesday for their chance at a grand final spot.
- Both our Under 18 Girls and Men’s B teams are currently sitting on top of the ladder with one game remaining – an excellent position leading into finals.
Well done to all teams – and best of luck for the upcoming matches. Go Griffins!
Volleyball Finals
- Our Juniors reached the finals on Tuesday and put up a strong fight, but were defeated by Bethel in a tough match.
- The Griffins White team played a thrilling semi-final against Lemmingos yesterday, narrowly missing out in a very close game.
The Men’s Premier team wrapped up their season with a hard-fought draw against the top side. It has been a fantastic season of growth and development for the group.
Congratulations to all our volleyball teams for their commitment and determination throughout the season.
