The NSWRL is today pleased to announce an extended squad for the Harvey Norman NSW Sky Blues for the Ampol Women’s State of Origin match at GIO Stadium on Friday 24 June.
NSW Sky Blues coach Kylie Hilder selected the 24-person squad following the NRLW Grand Final on Sunday 10 April. The squad includes six players from NRLW premiers Sydney Roosters and nine players from NRLW runners-up St George Illawarra Dragons.
“This squad has been chosen as a reward for all the players who performed well in the recent NRLW competition,” Hilder said.
“There is still opportunity for other players to push their claims based on their performances in the Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership, and the Country v City representative match.
“I’m looking forward to working with all the players when the final team is chosen next month.”
The Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership starts this weekend (23-24 April) while the Country v City representative match will be held in May.
The extended squad named today will attend Ignite HQ Centre of Excellence for a presentation and team dinner on Wednesday 27 April. A media event will be announced closer to the day.
