A tour to remember ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ผ๐Ÿ‡ธ

Lucy Voyvodic, Tabitha Packer and Jazmin McKay headed to Samoa with the Australian Pathway team, taking on Samoaโ€™s Invitational Team across three matches while experiencing Samoan culture along the way.

Lucy also had the honour of captaining the side, leading a group that came together for the first time and grew throughout the tour.

โ€œWeโ€™ve grown so much, both as players and as people, and getting to experience Samoan culture along the way made it even more meaningful.โ€ ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’›

Thanks, Glasgow ๐Ÿ’™

For some, it was a debut. For others, another chapter in an incredible career. But for every South Australian athlete, the 2026 Commonwealth Games delivered moments theyโ€™ll never forget.

Thanks for the memories, the medals, the PBs, and everything in between.

Until next time, Glasgow ๐Ÿ‘
