The 2017 Women's Under 21 Australian Championships was a Field Hockey tournament held in the New South Wales city of Wollongong between 7–14 July 2017.[1]

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

Competition format

The tournament is divided into two pools, Pool A and Pool B, consisting of four teams in a round-robin format. Teams then progress into either Pool C, the medal round, or Pool D, the classification round. Teams carry over points from their previous match ups, and contest teams they are yet to play.

The top two teams in each of pools A and B then progress to Pool C. The top two teams in Pool C continue to contest the Final, while the bottom two teams of Pool C play in the Third and Fourth-place match.

The remaining bottom placing teams make up Pool D. The top two teams in Pool D play in the Fifth and Sixth-place match, while the bottom two teams of Pool C play in the Seventh and Eighth-place match.
