She stepped up after 5 consecutive years in the Junior U16 division. Playing as the opening catcher, she started in 7 of the 10 games for NSW.
During the tournament Maddi fielded 1.000, meaning she made no errors throughout the tournament.
She was given the honour of catching during the gold medal match, which was both mentally and physically hard. After 3 innings it was 0/0
Vic Blue in the 4th scored 4 runs, which NSW fought back to equal and bring back to 6/4 in the 6th.
The final innings saw NSW score another run which they then had to defend.
With 2 out, runners at 2nd and 3rd base, Maddi completed the 3rd out to give NSW the victory in a nail biting match.
Congratulations to Maddi and NSW for this great achievement.
