The squad performed admirably given that after all the withdrawals, the average age just reached 17 – by far the youngest side that competed. We had two 13yr olds and five 15yrs or younger – 7 juniors in total.
“With most of their opponents being a decade older and a decade more experienced, they held their own in most games. Great leadership and support from Zac Corr-Johnson (Carlingford) and Adoni. Tom and Katie, still both juniors, rounded out the leadership group that made mature decisions regarding playing positions, and supported the very young girls unconditionally. I’m very proud to be associated with such a fine group of young men and women! “
