AFLPNG Touring Squads 2012-04-16
It is an exciting time for AFLPNG with the AFL Season in full swing; the representative calendar is almost upon us. In 2012 AFLPNG have been invited to participate in the U/16 and U/14 QLD state championships and for the first time the Open Women's State championships.
The under 16 Binatang's will be the first to travel with a team off 22 players from all over PNG arriving in Brisbane on the 1st May to play in the Championships and returning on 7th May. There will be 2 games played at Yeronga JAFC and 1 game at Zillmere JAFC in Brisbane. Our first encounter will be against the West Brisbane Taipans which should be a very tough first up game!
Next will be the PNG Open Women's Flames, taking a group of 21 Women to the first ever QLD state open Women's championships in Cairns to be played at Cazaly's AFL Ground. The Open women will be travelling on the 4th May and Returning 8th May playing games against QLD South and North QLD. This should be a fantastic tournament and hopefully PNG Flames come home with a victory!!
The last travelling Squad will be the Under 14 Binatangs, travelling to the Sunshine Coast from 25th June to 30th June. This will be the first exposure for many of the young players and a great opportunity for them to further develop their AFL skills against some of the best players in QLD.
AFLPNG are looking forward to this fantastic opportunity for these talented young Men & Women from all around PNG to play AFL at the next level.
AFLPNG are always looking for financial assistance for travelling sides. If anyone would like to sponsor a travelling side please contact AFLPNG on 325 4943 or admin@afl-png.com
