We’ve reached the penultimate stage of the Southern Corridor Women’s Open Tackle competition with four teams remaining in the fight for a spot in next week’s Grand Final.
Stingrays have set up a semi-final clash with minor premiers Milton-Ulladulla on Sunday after defeating Warilla-Lake South in their Elimination Final last week. In their only other meeting this year, the Bulldogs came out on top 8-0 with Illawarra Steelers Harvey Norman Women’s representative Josie Strong (pictured) scoring all the points through a converted try and penalty goal.
