AWARDS KEEP COMING FOR AUSTRALIA’S GOLDEN GIRLS
The Qantas Australian Women’s team post Rio glow continues to shine with the team announced as the “A-Team of the Year” at the 2016 I Support Women in Sports Awards in Sydney on Wednesday evening.
The awards, now in their sixth year, recognize and celebrate the incredible achievements of Australia’s female athletes- from a grassroots level through to the realms of professional sport for both teams and individuals.
Qantas Australian Women’s Head Coach Tim Walsh: “On behalf of the entire squad and management I would like to thank the 2016 I Support Women in Sports Awards for acknowledging the team’s hard work and success in 2016.
“The award is a credit to the amazing dedication and talent of every woman in this squad who worked so hard to make the dream of gold medal success a reality.
“We truly hope that the efforts of the Women’s Rugby Sevens team inspire a whole new generation of young women and girls to pick up a Rugby ball, get fit and active and participate in our great global game.”
The award comes in the middle of an intense pre-season training for the Qantas Australian Women’s Sevens team who are preparing to defend their HSBC Women’s Sevens World Series title.
In an Australian first, fans will have the opportunity to see the Qantas Australian Women’s Sevens team in action alongside their male counterparts at the HSBC Sydney7s this February.
The Aussie girls will begin their HSBC Sevens World Series defence in Dubai when the series kicks off in early December.
