Our Intermediate Team finished 2nd in their book and the Intermediate Red and Year 7 team both placed 3rd in their pools.

The teams were placed against one another in the finals series and the Senior Blue team went on to win in the Grand Final. We would like to congratulate all girls on their fair play and achievement. A big thank you to the parents for their eager support and also to our students that umpired and assisted with coaching on the day.
