Derwent A-Grade Women Storm to 2011 Premiership
Congratulations to Jess Tremayne and the A-grade women's team for your
impressive and gutsy 2 - 1 win over OHA in the A-grade grand final on Saturday.
Congratulations on a Sensational Effort!!!
A glorious result for all the hard work you have put in over many years to reach premier status. Hats off to all the girls in this year's team for your dedication and commitment, and also to those earlier players who have helped to build an increasingly strong side over the past decade, and who share in this win too - we noticed very few dry eyes in the dug-out when the final siren sounded!
