A testament to our pathway – how good to see Braves Champions coaching our Junior Braves!
Led by dual Olympian and Opals bronze medal-winning captain Tess Madgen as Head Coach, and Brave veteran Taylor Bell boasting over 370 games as Assistant Coach, our Under-16 Girls are in expert hands as they charge through the VJBL season.
Along with Co-Assistant Coach Tristan Purss the triple T’s led the team to take overall 5th place at the recent National Junior Classic held in Melbourne.
The girls had a hard-fought weekend, Madgen has nothing but pride for how the team went.
“We are incredibly proud of all 11 players who represented themselves, their families and the Braves with great character and skill.
“To lose by 1 point in the quarter final to the team who won the whole tournament proves we are right up there with the best in Australia and we can’t wait to continue to improve and grow as players, a team but most importantly as people throughout the rest of the VJBL season.
This team always plays the right way and with tremendous effort and they continue to have success because of that!”
Just like Madge, we can’t wait to see where the rest of the season takes this team!
