Statewide Super SA U19 Girls Squad Release

By ZAC MILBANK

SANFL has released the 2021 Statewide Super SA U19 Girls Squad, with 30 of the state’s brightest young female players named to play in the NAB AFLW U19 National Championships next month.

In an historic first, SA’s girls will don the treasured red guernsey at the NAB AFLW U19 National Championships to be held on the Gold Coast from April 11 to 15.

Previously, SA has joined forces with the Northern Territory but now coach Tim Weatherald will guide his charges as a standalone outfit against Queensland (April 12) and the Allies (April 15) at Metricon Stadium.

But first, the Croweaters will tackle Western Australia on Sunday March 28 at Flinders University Stadium, the first of three contests this season.

The Norwood Football Club would like to congratulate the following girls on making the squad.

Jade Halfpenny, Sarah Branford, Alana Lishmund and Jess Williams.
