A confident Griffith University squad has travelled to Tasmania for the opening game of the inaugural Women’s Aon Uni 7s Series. Griffith face University of Adelaide in Friday’s opener with kick-off at 2pm, in a game which will be livestreamed by the Australian Rugby Union.
Australian Sevens Rugby recruit Demi Hayes will link up with the Griffith team for the weekend, but another elite star Shannon Parry will be absent due to her Wallaroos commitments in Ireland where she helped Australia qualify for the 2021 World Cup before injury interrupted her tournament.
Griffith will also be without Bachelor of Sport Development student Ashleigh Cooksley who picked up an injury after she was originally named among six current students in the travelling squad.
