Queechy Penguins GNL Women season preview 🏑

A fleet of talented youngsters ready to take the next step has club legend and new coach Nic Duffy excited for 2021.

After finishing fourth at the conclusion of the 2020 regular season the Q's enjoyed a pulsating shootout victory over South Burnie in the elimination final before going down to an experienced West Devonport in the prelim.

Player losses?

Emma Kremerskothen – year off to recharge
Jess Curtis – year off to recharge
Mikaela Clarke – ankle surgery (but hopeful of a return later in the season)

Player gains?

Laura Tuson – intended to play last year before Covid hit. Ex-OHA and state junior

Who’s tearing up the training track?

Too early to tell!

Goals for the season?

After finishing third last year, we are obviously keen to go at least one step better and make the GF.

Young player to watch out for?

Our crew of young players including Lucy Cooper, Jaimie Duffy, Izzie McRobbie, Millie Smith and Amelia Duffy are all capable of making a real difference this season.

Tip for the premiership?

I think West Devonport will be the team to beat. They have picked up Madi Clark and Issie Sharman which adds to their already impressive list.

Biggest improver for the season?
I don’t really know the ins and outs for each team, however I think that LC will be the one to watch. Their young players have another year under their belt and combined with their experienced players should challenge a few teams.

Can Queechy take that next step and play off in the big one in 2021? ... See more
