We also had our Palerang Under 13's team play at home this week against Canberra Grammar, winning 1-nil.

Fantastic defense in goals from Tess Gurling and Leroy ensured that Canberra Grammar were unable to get any points on the board.
A particularly great game for Kayla Honey, and Will Mortimer - both players going from strength to strength every week.
The coaches and managers are so impressed with how these players have come together and worked as a team, remaining undefeated so far.
