Williamstown CYMS has broken through for its first ever win in the Victorian Amateur Football Association women’s premier season.

After being promoted the top flight weeks out from the season, the CYs started the season with a couple of tough results.

It was a different feeling on Saturday as they had a convincing win against the Old Yarra Cobras.

The CYs kicked four goals to none in the first quarter and it was game over at half time with the side leading 61-0.

The CYs couldn’t continue the scoring pace in the second half but still won the last two quarters to come away with a 12.11 (83)-2.0 (12) win.

Alessia Acquaro kicked six goals in the best on ground performance for the CYs.

Krystal Russell was strong on debut, while Marli Russell also had a strong game.

The CYs will be aiming for a second win on Sunday against MUWFC, which is yet to have a victory this year.

Meanwhile, Williamstown CYMS got its second win of the men’s premier B season on Saturday.

Facing Fitzroy, the CYs came away with the win, 11.9 (75)-13 (55).

After trailing by one point at quarter time, the CYS held a two goal lead at the next two breaks before finishing off with a three to one goal final quarter.

William Bokma and Will Smyth kicked three goals each for the CYs.

The pair along with Jordan Busuttil, who was an emergency for Essendon’s Victorian Football League side, were named their best.

The CYs face Old Ivanhoe this Saturday.
