The Renegades women followed up their win in Division 1 at the Bendigo Dragon City Tournament with a win in the Division 1 at the 16th Annual Horsham Tournament.

Despite enduring howling winds, flooded tents and sunburnt shoulders, after 6 tiring best-of-three round matches, Reds faced Geelong Phantoms in the final.  After 2 hours of quality hard-fought volleyball, Renegades finally took home the winning medal in 5 long sets.  A big congratulations is in order for Sheila Babayan, who was awarded the well-deserved MVP for the women's div 1.  Nice one Sheila.

Not all Reds wore our bright red playing tops, but played the tournament with other teams. Reds could be found in the Div 2 Mens Winning team, and both the Div 1 Mens & Womens Runners Ups teams.

Looking forward to waving to the Giant Koala again next year.

"In the end the experience of Sheila Babayan and the clever hitting from Jess McMillan and Sarah Tarquinio proved the difference."
