Mason Kilpatrick, Archie Williams, Lenny Perrella and Max Rodgers cleaned up for the white team.
Kaelan Cowley, Eli Coombs, Aiden Drew and Archer Nunn were the cream of the crop for the under-12 red team.
“It was just a really good night, great atmosphere, it was an amazing job for all of us because it was a big event,” club president Kylie Parsons said.
“The whole club was just proud to have their first really successful season, with the under-16s narrowly missing finals and the under-14s got to the qualifying final or the semi-final.
“So, we're just really proud that we're moving forward and having a good crack at being successful and hopefully feeding into that senior club.”
