It was a tough weekend at Blackwood with our A Grade, U14 Boys and U17 Girls enjoying good wins, but most of our other teams going down against the Woods. While our Senior Women were overpowered, it was a great Super Sunday at Blackwood, with Laycee Dawson playing her 100th senior game for Mt Lofty, our first female to achieve that. Congratulations Laycee! See you next weekend Devs fans!

Congratulations to Max Bawden, who headed out to Blackwood on Saturday for his 50th A Grade match.
Quiet by nature, but when that footy is in his hand Max goes hard as Hell. Having played juniors at Mt Lofty, Max first played A Grade as an U18 in 2018, before heading to Sturt and playing a year at Pembroke OS. We were very excited to see Max come back home in 2022 and make his mark at Mt Lofty. Always giving back to the club in every way, we couldn’t be luckier to have Max at the Devils.
Congratulations Max, always giving ‘em Hell out there mate
All roads lead to Blackwood this weekend, as our boys take on the Woods on Saturday, followed by another Super Sunday for our girls, with our U17s and Senior Women both playing at Blackwood.
Also on Saturday, our U16s and U18s will be playing off for the Courier Cup. This tradition sees the top two teams in each division at the halfway point of the Home and Away season play off for the Courier Cup when they meet again in the second round of the season. Good luck boys!
Our U12s have a bye this week – enjoy the break. Meanwhile, our U12 Girls take on Hectorville away and our U14 Girls take on Port District at home on Sunday.
