Blake Hughes Football Achievements

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—Speaker I am always thrilled to see young women excelling in the sporting arena, and North Shore has fostered many exceptional female talents. I want to acknowledge the undeniable talent and sportsmanship of Mosman High School student Blake Hughes, who has achieved remarkable success at both state and national levels. In August last year, Blake represented NSW Combined High Schools at the secondary football National Championships, which was held in Perth. She played a crucial role in securing the national title for NSW Combined High Schools. New South Wales won all five games, and defeated Western Australia 4-0 in the final, defending their title. Blake was consequently awarded the highly esteemed NSW CHS Blue Award, which recognised her athletic ability, sportsmanship, and contributions to both school and sporting communities. Blake was also selected for the Australian All Schools team, which toured the United States in January this year. I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Blake for her extraordinary achievements. I look forward to watching her continue to shine in future.
