The 2016 Women's Under 18 Australian Championships was the a field hockey tournament held in the Tasmania city of Launceston between 8–17 July 2016.

Queensland 1 won the gold medal by defeating New South Wales State 2–1 in the final. Western Australia won the bronze medal by defeating Victoria Blue 3–0 in the third and fourth place playoff.[1]

Competition format

The tournament is divided into two pools, Pool A and Pool B, consisting of five and six teams respectively, competing in a round-robin format.

At the conclusion of the pool stage, the top two teams of Pools A and B progress through to the semi-finals, where the top placed teams of each pool compete against the second placed team of each pool, with the winners progressing to the final.

The third and fourth placed teams then progress to the fifth to eighth place classification, while the bottom placed teams progress to Pool C (carrying over points) for the ninth to eleventh place classification.

Teams

Unlike other National Australian Championships, teams from New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria are eligible to enter two teams.
