For the fourth time in 10 years the Donnybrook Ladies Hockey Club team are A3W Premiers.  The win came on Friday night when Donnybrook beat Bunbury Team Associates at the Bunbury Hockey Stadium.  Played in perfect conditions in front of a big crowd of supporters, the Donnybrook team played composed hockey for the full 110 minutes.  From the first whistle the pressure was intense from both sides.  The halftime score was 0-0 and Donnybrook knew the momentum had to be maintained.  Midway through the second half, after some intense play in the circle, a goal was scored by Donna Whitton.  All players continued to mark their opponents closely and Donnybrook kept Associates scoreless.

The younger players Shae Tylor, Georgia Rutter, Sharna Denholm and Emily Graham have all come into their own and continued their domination and played with fierce determination and great poise.  It was a family affair with Tracey Tylor playing with her daughter Shae and sisters Donna and Kirsty, and Felicity Graham playing with her daughter Emily.

Donnybrook previously won the premiership in  2005, 2008 and 2010 with four playing in all four premierships being Mary Clarke, Felicity Graham, Lydia Torrisi and Tracey Tylor.

The forward line players comprised Mary Clarke, Georgia Rutter, Felicity Graham, Donna Whitton, Lydia Torrisi & Kirsty Tylor.  The halfback line players were Lisa Glover, Tracey Tylor, Shae Tylor & Emily Graham.  Fullbacks were Wendy Cain, Sharna Denholm & Kym Stewart and the goalkeeper was Georga Hetherington.
