Izzy Trenorden, club coach and team leader of Sturt I in its Preliminary Final clash with Blackwood I on Saturday 14 March 2026, said it took a "huge surge from our top side" to come from behind to win.
Izzy Trenorden's report:
At a third of the way through the game, we were down by 8 shots.
But we pulled our socks up and got on with the task at hand.
No afternoon tea break meant we had to work through it.
Standout performances came from Paul Clohesy, Jack Trenorden and Shane Ettridge who all played exceptionally well.
I’m really proud of the group and how we played.
It’s a credit to the game style we’ve played all season and the direction we’re growing in.
We’re looking forward to this Saturday and to seeing a wall of blue supporters.
