Girls show their skills
PORT Fairy’s JJ College Oval was a hive of activity last weekend.
Round two of the Football Southwest GoGirls Gala Series again provided plenty of action, with social matches aimed at girls between the ages of nine and 14 who are getting used to playing in a nine-a-side competition.
