Champions Program: Success Stories

A few months ago, the Burra Rays were offered a position in the Samoa 7s competition by Rugby Australia - the only Australian club team selected to attend! The girls travelled to Samoa and competed in the Vodafone 60th Independence International Sevens Tournament played over 10-11 September 2022 and were crowned Women’s Champions 2022!

Inner West Magpies AFL Women's Premier Division took on the current Premier’s, Manly Warringah, on the weekend at Picken Oval. The teams fought it out in the pouring rain and mud with our Magpies prevailing in a 29-11 win!

All of us at Workplace Law want to congratulate Sydney FC’s W-League Captain, Teresa Polias on playing in her 150th game for the Sky Blues in a fantastic 2-0 win against the Western Sydney Wanderers. Not only is Teresa an amazing player, she is also a wonderful leader - humble but also determined, hardworking, competitive and loyal. Teresa also shows other athletes that, while challenging at times, it is possible to ‘do it all’ by playing professional sport and building a successful career off the field.

It is natural for some fatigue to linger into 2021 following an eventful 2020 and as we await the vaccine roll out. However, as we start the new work year (wherever ‘work’ may be for us in the current pandemic), it is a great time to start building new habits to help us remain healthy, energised and motivated throughout 2021.

The Aussie Sevens girls have entered the final few weeks of Olympic preparation for this year. The information we have received so far from the International and Australian Olympic Committees says that they are feeling very confident about the games going ahead in Tokyo in 2021.

Congratulations to all the players and coaches of the Central Coast Roosters on winning the 2020 NSW Harvey Norman Women’s Premiership title.

We are tremendously proud of our existing ‘Champion’ athletes and teams and are excited to announce a new partnership with the GWS GIANTS as the official player partner for defender, Ellie Brush for the 2020 AFLW season.
