NSWTA Regional Champs 14/16's - Sydney Scorpions Champion Permit 25/04/10  Fresh on the back of their recent NTL Opens & Senior Champion Permit win, the young Sydney Scorpions Boys & Girls 14's/16's did the permit proud with all four teams appearing in their respective Finals helping the Scorps take out the NSWTA 14/16's Regional Champion Permit. 



Excellent weather conditions at Orange allowed for superb touch to be played with the Boys & Girls 14's both narrowly losing their Finals in drops-offs.  The Boys 16's, under the guidance of Coach David Nolan took out the title 4-3 beating Northern Eagles.  Last but not least the Scorps Girls 16's won all of their 7 games over the weekend to completely dominate the division.  An impressive 6-1 semi final win over Rebels was followed up by another fantastic win in the game that mattered 5-1 over Hornets.  More reports later in the week including all the Scorpions Medal Best & Fairest Winners and NSWTA Merit Teams.  Further info can be found via the NSWTA website.  All the scores from the weekend can be found here.

You can read the Girls 16's weekend report on their webpage here now.

2008 NSWTA 14's/16's Regionals:  Following on from a successful NTL by the Sydney Scorpions Open's and Seniors teams, it has been the junior teams that have really put the Sydney Scorpions on the map. At the recent NSWTA 14's/16's Regionals held in Forster on the weekend of 29th and 30th March, Sydney Scorpions were named as the Champion Junior Permit in NSW, thanks to the efforts of players, coaches and managers of all 4 teams.

After an encouraging Junior State Cup in Wollongong by all affiliates within the Scorpions region, selectors had a difficult task in choosing players to represent Sydney Scorpions at the 14's/16's Regional Championships. Those selections were vindicated with all 4 Scorpions teams making the semi finals, with 2 teams (Boy's 14's and Boy's 16's) taking out the titles on offer and the Girl's 14's falling just short in the final.

The coaches, managers and support staff had a huge task in moulding those players selected, into competitive teams in the short time frame between JSC and the Regional Championships, and what a job they did! The success of all 4 teams is a true indication of the efforts of the coaches, and also reflects on the tremendous job that the Scorpions Junior committee is doing with the juniors in our region.

And the players, what can you say. Their behaviour, off field dress and playing gear, were the envy of the other permits and was backed up on the fields of play with some amazing skills on show. It made all involved, very proud to be associated with such a group of fine young people.
