It was a well deserved reward on the weekend for our Under 15 Girls, with a 34 point win over their closest rival, Hope Valley in their SANFL Juniors Div 3 grand final played at Richmond Oval.
The win represents a second straight premiership for Mt Lofty in the Under 15 girls comp.
This year saw more than half the team either new to the club or new to Under 15s, having come up from under 13’s. But with a great female Devils culture pumping through the club at Mt Lofty, the girls were soon playing as team.
Never scared to give to ball off to a player in a better position, or put their body on the line to shepherd for their team mates, meant that the team were outscoring teams week in week out. This team culture was clearly evident throughout the Grand Final, running over their opponents in the last quarter: 6.5.41 to 1.1.7.
In the week leading into the Grand Final, the club’s senior women team helped out by providing tough opposition in a training match. The support from the club’s senior women was wonderful to see. Maybe sometime soon they will be playing together!
CONGRATULATIONS DEVS! We are all so proud of you!
