AFL Schools and Universities Coordinator Mark Ayers said it is a fantastic achievement to reach the AFL SportsReady State Cup Final.
“Congratulations to all teams for making it through to the final of the AFL SportsReady State Cup final,” Ayers said.
“This year’s event was the biggest of its kind with over 120 schools participating throughout the seven regions in NSW/ACT and two competitions run in the Sydney Swans and GWS GIANTS zones.
“It all comes down to Wednesday now where only one team can be crowned the best school in NSW/ACT for their division.
“Best of luck to all teams and I look forward to an even bigger competition in 2012.”
To make the day even memorable for the participating schools will be an opportunity to meet the GWS GIANTS and watch them train.
