U14 GIRLS

Claim Silver at ACT Club Championships

Richmond’s U14 Girls delivered an outstanding performance at the ACT Club Championships in Wagga over the weekend, finishing with a well-earned silver medal after a thrilling Grand Final that went all the way to a penalty shootout against Nordek.

The team showed great composure and consistency throughout the tournament. Richmond recorded two wins and a draw in the preliminary rounds to finish top of their pool, setting up a semi-final clash with Wagga. The girls produced a strong performance in the semi-final to secure the win and book their place in the gold medal match.

The Grand Final proved to be a tightly contested battle, with the match ultimately decided in a dramatic penalty shootout.

Richmond travelled with eight club players, joined by two athletes from DVE to complete the squad. The weekend showcased excellent teamwork, with players stepping up for each other and contributing to a fantastic overall team effort.

A big thank you goes to coach Matt and team manager Daniel for their leadership and support throughout the tournament, as well as to the parents who made the trip to Wagga and helped make the weekend such a positive experience for the athletes.

The ACT Club Championships continue to be a fantastic tournament for our junior teams and provide a valuable opportunity to gain match experience ahead of major competitions such as the Australian Youth Water Polo Championships (AYC).

Congratulations to all the girls on a terrific tournament and a silver medal performance. 🟡⚫️
