CHALLENGE CUP

Ms JODIE HARRISON (Charlestown) — Over the Queen's Birthday long weekend, Feighan Oval, home ground of the fantastic Warners Bay Bulldogs, played host to the Challenge Cup—a chance for local AFL juniors to showcase their skills and celebrate a sport which is rapidly growing in popularity in the Hunter Region. The two-day tournament, featured under-13, under-15 and under-17 boys' and girls' teams from AFL Hunter Central Coast. I would like to acknowledge the players and officials who made the Challenge Cup such a success, in particular AFL Central Coast competition coordinator Lauren Francis for organising a much-expanded event. Congratulations to the Challenge Cup regional winner – comprising of teams predominantly from Warners Bay, Cardiff and Newcastle City. I wish all the players the very best for the remainder of the season.
