Tasmania will play seven games over the next eight weeks, with 2 games against TAC cup teams Sandringham and the Oakleigh Chargers, followed by 5 National Championship games. Three games will be played in Tasmania – against Victoria Country at Bellerive Oval on Sunday June 5 and the New South Wales / ACT at Aurora Stadium on Saturday June 25.
Tasmania’s leadership group was announced at its final training session at Aurora Stadium on Wednesday night, with John McKenzie from South Launceston honoured with the captaincy of the team. John will be supported by two vice captains Martyn Allison (North Hobart and Zachary Hislop (Burnie Dockers).
The Tasmania Under 18 team has won the NAB Division 2 National Championships titles in two of the past three years, a feat Coach Mathew Armstrong is looking forward to the challenge of repeating.
“The players have worked hard over the summer period - we feel the squad is a more even group than in 2010, but they are certainly looking forward to testing themselves out against the country’s best under 18 players.”
