Mayday Tournament Wrap-Up🥎

What an incredible weekend of softball! Our team showed heart, determination, and true grit, finishing the tournament as Grand Finalists.

After a hard-fought run, we made it all the way to the Grand Final, where it came down to the very last innings. In a nail-biting finish, we unfortunately went down 2–1 in a game that could have gone either way. While the result didn’t fall our way, the effort, teamwork, and resilience displayed by everyone was something to be incredibly proud of 💙

A big thank you to all the officials Brett, Jaime, Annette, Amanda and Coady who made the tournament possible, your time and dedication don’t go unnoticed.

Special shoutout to Aviae Massey and Hayley Wilcox on their selection in the All Star Team, such a fantastic achievement! And a huge congratulations to Hayley Wilcox for being named the Tournament MVP 👏 An outstanding performance all weekend!

So proud of this group — onward and upward from here! 🔥
