2020-02-09 State Touch Champs, Divas Pre-Season Starts




S: It was so exciting going into State Champs this year. I worked hard to get here, through operations and injuries and fitness, and I finally made it! It was cool being part of the team and training with them.

Our first game was against ECU, and we played well, but they beat us convincingly. We then played Northern, and we managed to beat them. We then played Southern lost to them, but beat Ellenbrook. We finally played Goldfields on Sunday, and we beat them, so we ended up 3rd where we played ECU again, and once again we lost. Amazingly, Northern won the whole tournament - we beat them in the second game, and we were very surprised.

I pulled my hamstring on the second game, but managed to play 3 full games in total and appear in the others, which was such an achievement considering the journey. It was great fun, and looking to do it next year for sure!

C: Callie is growing soooooo much! We can't believe it, and the training is going well.

Aiysha: It was great to see Dad out playing and he was looking pretty sharp. I wish I caught his Goldfields game on video though, but I stayed out all night and didn't get up! Doh!

Clara: I was so sad for Daddy when he pulled his hamstring, especially in the semi, but so happy that he played so many games! Well done Dad!
