Wales have finished fifth at the Wheelchair Rugby League World Cup in Australia.
Jodie Boyd-Ward captained the side to a 52-30 victory over Scotland in Wollongong, in her 51st and final international game.
She made history in her previous game against New Zealand when she became the first player in wheelchair rugby league history to win 50 caps.
Stuart Williams scored a hat-trick of tries for the Welsh side, with Fionn McCabe scoring two and John Berriman one.
Wales had lost heavily against England and Ireland before beating the USA to finish third in Pool A.
They then beat New Zealand 64-36 in their minor-places semi-final, before rounding off the tournament with a convincing win against the Scots.
