PENNANT PRACTICE for WOMEN
Pre-season practice for the Sunday and Friday Pennant season commenced on Tuesday evening for the Women’s squad. The three goals we have for our pre-season are to improve our skills, play as much matchplay as we can and build a strong team culture. Jas will be sharing her expertise and experience with us as our coach.
After the year that has been, this year’s season will be unique due to the continuing pandemic and the need to negotiate playing the game we love safely. After completing only three rounds last year, we are very much looking forward to the commencement of the season.
Thank you to all who have said ‘yes’ to representing Yarra Yarra in this year’s Friday and Sunday Pennant:
Andree Leigh, Anne Kaiser, Charlotte Fraser, Janelle Brown, Jennifer North, Karan Smith, Kellie Baker, Lauren Goddard, Leanne Vassallo, Meagan Love, Meg Thorley, Megan Rothwell-Jones, Mel Foster, Rebecca Thomas, Shanaiah Fernando, Sonia Kirkman, Sue Baker, Thanh Chau and Vanessa Agius.
We look forward to the ongoing support and interest of our members again this year.
