The sun shines of footy again this Saturday. Our seniors and reserves take the trip to Waverley to take on UTS, while it’s a week at home for the thirds and Under 18s.

The Matches
10:00am – Under 18s v St Ignatius Riverview at Gore Hill
12:00pm – Third Division v UTS at Gore Hill
12:00pm – First Division v UTS at Waverley Oval
2:10pm – Premier Division v UTS at Waverley Oval
Waverley Oval
To get to Waverley Oval, get onto Warringah Expressway. Take the Harbour Tunnel, and continue onto the Eastern Distributor.
Take the Bondi exit. The SFS and the SCG will be on your right. Keep going straight ahead to the end, and keep going straight ahead onto Oxford St, continuing along Sid Einfeld Drive past Bondi Junction.
Turn left at Bondi Road. The oval is about five blocks away on your right.
Please note that the ground is currently a construction side. The old western grandstand was recently demolished, and construction of a new grandstand is getting under way on the western side.
The construction zone is fenced off. Under no circumstances is anyone to enter the construction zone. A UTS official, with accreditation and a hard-hat, will retrieve any balls that end up in that area. The players will have demountable rooms, but showers are limited. As an alternative to long queues for the showers, UTS have made shower facilities available at the nearby Trumper Park.
Contrary to what was previously advertised, we are now advised by UTS that there will be canteen facilities at Waverley Oval.

Our Opponents
This week’s opponents are UTS. This season is the Bats’ first in Premier Division; after winning back-to-back premierships in First Division, they were promoted for this season. UTS are coached by former North Shore mentor Michael Hosking.
It’s been a tough initiation for UTS in Premier Division, and they are yet to win a game. But they’ve had a few close calls; and our team will need to stay on top of their game to win this one.
Our reserves take on UTS’s reserves, and our thirds will play their thirds, in what will be a test of the depth of both clubs.
And for our under 18s, taking on Riverview, top spot will be on the line.
Online Coverage
Score updates will be posted on the North Shore website during the course of the day. After the game, more detailed scorecards will be available by clicking the Fixtures/Results tab above. Later in the weekend, photo galleries from the weekend’s action will be uploaded.
After-Match Function
After the matches, please make your way to the BridgeView Hotel in Willoughby.
Go Bombers!
