Awesome work boys !! great start to the tournament for our U18s - 4 from 4 👊🏼Pool play is now complete in the u18 Girls Nationals. Atlantis Tridents are looking strong and remain unbeaten in pool A. In the top spot in the pool means they have a direct passage to the Semifinals. They will play the winner of North Harbour Black (third in PoolA) and Hibiscus Coast Gold (second in pool B).
North Harbour Maroon has finished top of the table in Pool B after a 4-4 draw with Hibiscus Coast Gold. As both teams ended on even points the teams scores were compared against the third placed team in Pool B. This was Atlantis Aqua and both teams had won 9-2.
