Ryco supports inaugural AFL NT Youth Girls’ State Championships
Ryco 24•7 Darwin has thrown its support behind the inaugural AFL Northern Territory Youth Girls’ State Champions
hips in September.
“This will be the first event of its kind in the Northern Territory and Ryco’s support will enable us to run an outstanding event,” said AFLNT Female Development Manager Breeanna Brock.
A first for the Territory, the company is supporting the advancement of high-performance sport for girls and female football programs in general.
“Ryco 24•7’s support of this event will provide the opportunity for girls to participate in a structured talent identification system similar to that of their male counterparts.”
The carnival will expose participants to high-performance testing such as the beep test, vertical leap test and a range of skills tests, all similar to those conducted at the NAB AFL Draft Camp.
“This carnival will give the girls an opportunity to compete at a Territory level against their peer group. These girls will be the future talent for the Female Football player pathway,” said Brock.
Representative teams chosen from the Middle School Girls’ program from areas all over the Northern Territory, including Darwin, Palmerston, Alice Springs, Tiwi, Maningrida, Wadeye, Gove and Katherine, will compete in a two-day carnival at TIO Stadium from 27-28 September 2010.
