WOW, what a great morning and a fitting end to the season for Junior football.
Fun and excitement was over flowing, and it was great to see so many happy faces.
Sad however as the season is over for this year.
The Under 7’s have really excelled this season with great play and enthusiasm.
A very large thankyou to all players, parents and coaches for making this year so much fun.
I would also like to thank our wonderful sponsors in this age group.
Next year will see some new sponsors joining the family, so keep an eye out for some striking new uniforms.
The Under 9’s have also grown this year and its always great to see young players start to put together the skills and teamwork that makes football so enjoyable.
A credit to all players and coaches, and we look forward to seeing there development in future years.
Once again a large thankyou to the Under 9sSponsors.
As expected, the Under 12’s showed us what football is all about.
Never give up and keep playing till the end.
