Redcliffe’s Division One men Joshua Blakey and Josh McPaul and Women’s Premier League One player Annelyse Tevant are in the Opens squads for the Australian Indoor team.

It’s a great achievement for Tevant who is still eligible for the junior squad, but has jumped straight into Opens. Jordan Bliss was named in the Emerging Indoor Squad.
