Richmond welcomed some of Australia's most talented female footballers to Punt Road Oval last Friday as the AFL Youth Girls National Championships came to a close.

The Club hosted three finals matches, before President Peggy O'Neal and AFL female football ambassador Daisy Pearce presented participants with awards. 

In the opening match of the day, NT Thunder secured a 47-point win over Woomeras.

NSW/ACT were the Pool B premiers, taking down South Australia by 65 points.

The Pool A play-off for a podium finish was fought out between Vic Country and Queensland, with the host-state prevailing in a two-point thriller.

The Pool A grand final was held at the MCG, as a curtain-raiser to Richmond's Round 7 match against Hawthorn.

Vic Metro finished the tournament with the silverware, following a dominant week that culminated with a 95-point victory over Western Australia.

The Vic Metro side is no stranger to Richmond's Punt Road Oval and used the facilities as its training base.
