WOMEN'S AFL Action - This Weekend - Sydney International Sportspark Sydney - Rooty HIll


Blacktown International Sportspark Sydney is the home of women’s sport with 2 huge days of cricket and AFL action this weekend.

Mayor of Blacktown City, Councillor Stephen Bali MP is thrilled with the calibre of events in Blacktown. “Blacktown is the ideal venue for these games and I encourage everyone to head to the Sportspark and cheer on these incredible women. I wish Alex Blackwell and the NSW team all the best on Saturday and acknowledge her role in changing the game for women in cricket.”

First up is the Women’s National Cricket League Grand Final where defending champions NSW take on WA, looking to nab their 18th title in 21 seasons.

Australia vice-captain Alex Blackwell this week announced her retirement from international and state cricket, ending one of the game’s longest and most decorated careers - 15-years for Australia and 17-years for NSW.

The game will commence at 10am Saturday 24 February on Oval 2 and has FREE entry.

AFLW will kick into the Sportspark on Sunday 25 February, with GWS Giants looking to for back-to-back wins against reigning premiers, Adelaide Crows. GWS Captain and local school teacher, Amanda Farrugia will be hoping to continue the success of the team who are undefeated in Blacktown.

Entry to the game is FREE, with First Bounce at 4:35pm.
