U16/U18 Country Championships
March 29, 2022
On the weekend of the 19th and 20th March, Bacchus Marsh competed in the U16 boys and U18 boys in Division 3 and 4 Country Championships in Ballarat. There were some fantastic games played across the weekend at the new Selkirk Stadium at Wendouree, as well as the Minerdome.
U18 boys
The U18 boys had a great start on Saturday with 3 wins from 3 games.
This pushed the boys into Division 3 against the top teams at the tournament and they came up against Maffra in the quarter final. Maffra proved themselves a level above the Lions and went on to win Division 3. Great effort across the weekend boys.
U16 boys
The U16 boys had a very busy Saturday with 4 games in 9 hours. They won 2 of their first 3, before playing an awesome game against Hamilton, which they eventually lost. This pushed the team into Division 4 for Sunday’s games. The boys then proceeded to win 3 close finals by no more than 5 points, showing awesome stamina, composure and effort to take out the Division 4 title.
Fantastic work boys!
Thanks to coaches, team managers and parents for their commitment on the weekend.
