Good luck to all players, coaches, umpires and supporters. We can't wait to see who earns their spot in next week's Grand Finals!

Last Saturday Night our junior members came together to celebrate the 2026 season at the Junior Presentation Night.

The evening celebrated the achievements of our youngest players, umpires, leaders, and volunteers of the Association, with all roles contributing to our community in their own meaningful way. We also heard from Bella Sackley and Hallie Browning who spoke incredibly about their experiences in the Junior Leadership Program and STiNgAs Program, respectively.

Congratulations to our major award winners from the night!
