Well, the 2009 season has now come and gone and the Club had some great success this year with our Firsts side winning the Premiership and Dean Connors taking out the Sanders Medal for League Best and Fairest.
Ressie’s again made finals for the second year in a row and look forward to 2010 where they hope to take the next step in making the Grand Final.
Third grade had a great year once again under first time Coach Matt Scoular, Matt has agreed to terms and we look forward to seeing this side play well in 2010 and hopefully make finals.
The Under 18’s played some great football this year with a side that Coach Donnie Ollington said played above most sides in sprit and heart and most games with only 16 players. We see a new appointment onboard for the 2010 season and the new PATHWAY for juniors coming on will see us hopefully with a squad of 25 or so players.
We played our first season in the Sydney Women’s AFL League with long time stalwart Belinda taking charge each week to rally the girls to play. 2010 will see this side grow in stature to hopefully break new ground for us as a Club and make the finals in the competition.
Well, it is only a few weeks from preseason training and there is a lot going on behind the scenes to make 2010 a great season for us as a Club and we look forward to bringing more excitement to the sides with recruitment of players and coaching staff now in full swing. Head Coach Daniel Kenny was awarded the Coach Of The Year at the U@MQ awards on Friday the 23rd October and the Club winning Sporting Achievement Of The Year.
As I made mention at the Presentation dinner we will be losing the Green and Gold and playing in a new strip consisting of Red, White and Black, of which we are currently working with 3 suppliers to arrange some designs to put forward to the AFL for acceptance and then work to have these ready for next season.
So keep an eye on the web as well as your inbox for important announcements and we look forward to seeing all current and new players in late November.
Regards
