🏏 It was a huge school holiday period for some of our young Hawks! 💚💛

A couple of weeks ago, we shared that a number of our junior players were heading away to compete at the Indoor Cricket National Championships.

We are incredibly excited to report that they returned with an outstanding list of achievements, including National Champions, Player of the Tournament awards, Australian Merit Team selections, and even Australian Indoor World Cup selections!

👏 Bree Chapman was named Under 14 Girls Player of the Tournament and earned selection in the Australian Merit Team.

👏 Joshua Geldenhuys captained Queensland to the Under 14 Boys semi-finals and was selected to represent Australia.

👏 Lane Chapman was named Under 16 Boys Player of the Tournament, helped Queensland claim the National Championship, and was rewarded with selection to represent Australia.

👏 Aidan Steinhardt was a member of the Queensland Under 18 Boys team that were crowned National Champions.

A huge congratulations also goes to all of our other junior Hawks who represented Queensland with distinction and produced exceptional performances throughout the championships.

We are incredibly proud of every one of our young Hawks and can't wait to welcome you all back to the club. The future is looking very bright! 💚💛🦅
