Congratulations to Team SA who recently placed 4th at the 2016 Bruce Cup which was held in Albury, NSW.

The Bruce Cup started in 1939 as an under 15 competition between Queensland and New South Wales. In 1963 it became a primary school event when the Jack Pizzey Cup was introduced for secondary school competition. The event continued as a competition between Queensland and New South Wales until the 1980s when other states joined. The Bruce Cup is now a national competition with all eight states and territories competing.

There were a number of great performances by the SA team throughout the week, with special mention to Mia Tsoukalas who won the Girls SSA Consolation Plate.

>Full results available here.

Thank you to Jenny Woolley (Team Manager) and Sam Wall (Team Coach) for looking after the team and ensuring a good time was had by all.
