AFL 9s Girls Team - State Runners Up!
We were thrilled to share that our AFL 9s girls team progressed to the State Competition after their outstanding performance at the recent Northern Metropolitan Regional Finals!
The team competed with incredible determination and teamwork at La Trobe University in Bundoora today.
- In Game One, they faced Mansfield Primary School and secured a convincing win with a score of 42–18.
- In Game Two, they played St Mary's Swan Hill and came out on top in a tight match, winning 38–32.
In Game Three, they continued their strong form with a 38–26 victory over Ballarat and Clarendon Primary.
Their strong skills, sportsmanship, and unity on the field were evident throughout the day and were a credit to themselves and to our school community.
In the grand final, the girls gave it their all against a strong Geelong College team but ultimately went down 27–11. Despite the loss, their effort, resilience, and team spirit remained unwavering.
We were so proud of their achievements and the way they represented our school with pride throughout the competition. Well done, girls!
