Subscriber only CELEBRATING her first national success as head coach, Sara Rogers also has a better understanding of what the NRL and AFL teams are enduring during COVID restrictions. After initially fearing the Queensland under-18 women would miss the latest Australian hockey tournament in Tasmania, Rogers oversaw the team s unbeaten performance. Queensland won the gold medal match against Victoria after sudden death shootouts. That was Queensland s sixth victory to go with a 0-0 draw with NSW in the qualifying rounds. But just to get to Launceston to contest the championships was a feat in itself. Just before Easter, the Greater Brisbane area including Ipswich went into the three-day lockdown.

Subscriber only AFTER the Norths juggernaut clicked up a gear and rolled to another huge victory, the warning was clear. The Norths Devils will only get better in this year s Ipswich A-Grade hockey competition. Sunday night s 7-1 victory over Easts came after the Devils surrendered the first goal. We probably needed a goal against us to start with just to wake up, coach Steve Profke said. With only four training sessions under their belt, last year s grand final runners-up displayed plenty of firepower with Profke s sons Zac (four) and Riley (two) dominating the goal fest. However, the other teams are already on notice.
