Unfortunately, the girls were slow to start the day and lost a number of early matches that they probably should have won. These losses proved very costly and resulted in the team being ranked 4^th in their pool mid-way through the day. However, in true St Pat’s fashion, the girls rallied and won their final games which allowed them to progress into the playoffs for minor positions. After a convincing win in the first round of the play offs, the girls then drew St Josph’s in the playoff for 5^th and 6^th position overall. The girls played St Joseph’s in the round of the day and were beaten by a better team, however, the girls showed their true potential in the playoff and were leading the game until a controversial decision by the umpire after the final siren led to the girls going down by 1 point. While it was a disappointing way to end the championships, the girls should be extremely proud of the way they played and improved throughout the day.

A big thank you to coach Mr Baca for his efforts with the team on the day.

The team consisted of Skyla S, Hannah W, Valentina S-M, Amelia C, Ava S, Mariah A, Chloe C, Olivia L, Patressa A-L, Gabrielle L, Stephanie B, Tapenisa M, Georgia T, Rebekah N, Ava M, Lily S, Witi J and Adele L. Coach Mr Baca.
