The first win of the weekend went to Glenn Hall-s Grade 14 Boys who triumphed 3-1 over Macarthur Rams at Garside Park in Granville. The win sees the Academy 14 Boys progress to the Preliminary Final next Saturday against Granville Rage.
The Grade 16 Academy Girls team were also in action on Saturday and travelled to Homebush to play the Sutherland Sharks. The Academy girls also had a convincing win which will see them play Manly next Sunday in the Preliminary Final.

The Grade 15 Boys played Sydney University but were unable to secure a win with the final score 3-1 to Sydney University. The Grade 15 Boys will now progress through to the Preliminary Final against Western NSW Mariners next Saturday.
