Redback women seal win against Lockyer and South Toowoomba
WOMEN'S Aussie Rules is hotting up on the Darling Downs with regular round robin events between the Redbacks, Lockyer Valley and South Toowoomba.
The Warwick-based Redbacks hosted all three teams on Sunday and scored their first win - 2.2. (14) to 0.2. (2) against Lockyer Valley. Women's games are played at Roddies Oval.
South Toowoomba is the most experienced and skilled women's team in the league and beat the Redbacks on the day.
After round 4, South Toowoomba is unbeaten, the Redbacks have one win in three games and Lockyer Valley is yet to record a win in four games.
Player Yolande Cave said the Redbacks were happy with the game against South Toowoomba.
"We were much more competitive than in the earlier game against the same team and the win against Lockyer Valley was our first," she said.
All ladies games are playing in a round robin format alternating from Warwick to Gatton and Toowoomba every two or three weeks.
The next round is at Gatton on June 30. Redbacks play South Toowoomba at 1.30pm and Lockyer Valley at 2.30pm.
The Redbacks had 13 players for last Sunday's home games out of a squad of 15 and welcome more players to training at Roddies Oval each Tuesday and Thursday at 5.30pm.
