The teams comprised four players each, and St Mary’s entered four teams; 16 teams participated in the event. St Mary’s A achieved 1st place with 18 points, Jeppe Girls U18 A placed 2nd with 16.5 points and 3rd place was awarded to Dainfern College on 15 points. It was an enjoyable and successful event, and we are very proud of our St Mary’s girls.
