It was a tightly contested game against their nearest rivals as it came down to less than a goal to separate the two sides with the Swans coming away with a 2.4 (16) to 2.0 (12) win.
Jenna Richards was overjoyed with the result and their side's performance.
“The game was really good it was a really tight tussle,” Richards said.
“Leeton played so good and really gave it to us all game.”
Teammate Abby Favell was happy to see her side’s hard work pay off in the decider.
“It was really good to be out there, and in the end, we came away with it which is good,” Favell said.
“It feels so good we wanted this all season, and it has been in the back of our minds, so it is really good. All our girls played well, and that was how we were able to come away with the win working as a team.”
Richards wanted to pay credit to the Crows for providing great opposition in the final.
“Mikayla Jones was great for them,” Richards said. “She played amazing every week she just comes out and plays her hardest.”
Leeton-Whitton Blue took a convincing victory in the under 13s, defeating Leeton-Whitton White 11.9 (75) to 0.0 (0).
