OLIVIA HIGGINS

Ms JENNY AITCHISON (Maitland—Minister for Regional Transport and Roads)—On October 1st many of us tuned into watch the NRLW Final between the Newcastle Knights and the Gold Coast Titans. A member of the victorious Knights side was hooker, Olivia Higgins. Originally, a local junior player for the Aberglasslyn Ants, Olivia Higgins is now a NRL Women's three-time Premiership winning player. Olivia won her first premiership with the Sydney Roosters before returning to the Hunter and joining the Newcastle Knights to score her second premiership and the Ron Griffiths' Coach Award in 2022. This year she has had yet another successful season with The Knights beating The Gold Coast Titans 24 to 18 in the Grand Final. Olivia comes from a proud rugby family. Her sister Sophie, and brothers Liam and Luke all have highly respectable rugby careers. Congratulations Olivia for an amazing 2023 rugby season and your 3rd straight NRWL Premiership win.
