Lainey Steps Her Way to National Gold!

A quick sidestep, sharp instincts and an impressive ability to read the play. Lainey M (Year 7) brought her touch football skills to the national stage, helping Queensland claim gold at the School Sport Australia Touch Football Championships.

Representing the Queensland 12 Years and Under Girls team, Lainey competed in Newcastle, NSW, from 25–30 October against school teams from across Australia. After a gruelling week of fast-paced touch football, Queensland emerged as national champions!

Lainey’s evasive footwork and quick change of direction make her a threat with the ball in hand. Combined with her ability to anticipate the play and spot opportunities in the defensive line, these skills earned her a place among Queensland’s best young players.

The championships provided a demanding test of skill, fitness and teamwork, with Queensland combining attacking flair and committed defence to secure the gold medal.

Congratulations, Lainey, on an outstanding achievement. Your Clayfield College community is incredibly proud. What a way to finish a week in maroon!
