WA players to watch at the U18 Championships

The ones we're looking at in the '26 boys and girls national champs.

G’day punchers! After a heap of trial games, this Saturday we’ll finally see the WA U18 boys and girls squads play their first official games of the 2026 U18 National Championships.

They’re playing a double header against South Australia at Mineral Resources Park. The boys start at 10.30am, the girls at 1pm. You should go.

And if you do go, I’ve compiled a list of the players to keep an eye on in both sides here. Some top-rated prospects, plus a few of my favourites.

This post is for paid-up Jumper Punches members - if you like what we’re doing, why not consider jumping on board?

Alright, let’s get stuck in.
