Girls represent region at VLine Cup

Paige Duffy, Maddison Ibrahim, Hannah Loughnan, Trinny Preer and Mia Spiteri were initially selected in the restricted age group of mainly under 15 in 2021 before the postponement but got chance last week to show their skills.

The V/Line Cup comprises three divisions – two boys divisions and a girls division – and features representative teams from seven regions playing in a total of 21 matches. Each team contested two matches over the four days. A girls division has been part of the program since 2010.

The local girls featured well in both their matches with Paige Duffy receiving best for the North East Border team against Barwon and Maddison Ibrahim and Hannah Loughnan among the best players in the team’s convincing win against Goulburn Murray. Paige also captained the team in their second match.
