In a Mid West first, the West Coast Hawks have qualified for the Grand Final in every grade of football and netball, that is nine grades all up. This is an outstanding feat! They had to do it the hard way too, with only the Colts Football and Under 13 Netball going through via directly via the 2nd Semi Finals. The Hawks won all seven grades of football and netball Preliminary finals that they competed in on the weekend.
This gives them cast iron grip on the DuMonte Trophy as the overall premier club in Mid West. Of course they also have the opportunity to get a perfect score in the DuMonte if they win all finals next week, but there are other clubs with no desire to be on the wrong side of this type of history.
Whatever happens next week, the West Coast Hawks club as a whole must feel very justifyably proud of this achievement.
