Australia Green U20W got up early in their opening game of the Pan Pacific Tournament and managed to stay ahead vs Auckland’s Waitakere U20W.

# 12 Aus Green’s Sofie Pontre, leading scorer of the game with 5 goals, admits that the game was a lot rougher than she expected, so the team had to really work hard to maintain their lead. Pontre said she really enjoyed her first game of the tournament, and it was good to be back playing in New Zealand since her first Pan Pac experience years ago in the U14 age group.
#8 Aus Green’s Danielle Morrissey thought the game went very well considering this was the first time they had worked together as a team.
Waitakere put up a strong fight in the last three quarters, with #5 Simone Couvee scoring 2 goals to stay in the game.

Final Score:  Aus Green 15 – Waitakere 6
