The first ever AFL Barwon Senior Female Representative squad has been announced ahead of their landmark clash with Northern FNL at KFC Oval on May 18 as part of a massive Interleague triple header.

The team will be coached by revered Geelong AFLW captain Mel Hickey, who was appointed last month. Geelong Amateur coach and Geelong legend Tim McGrath and Geelong West Giants’ Simon Cavallo will be alongside Hickey as assistant coaches. Their expertise and experience will be invaluable for all players involved.

The squad of 52 will be trimmed following training sessions on Wednesday, May 1st at Geelong West’s West Oval, and Wednesday, May 8 also at West Oval. Two final training sessions will be held on Tuesday 14th of May and Thursday the 16th at a yet to be decided venue.
