35 Reunion Feedback As reported in the last newsletter what a brilliant night the 35 year senior reunion was. Kudos to all involved. The feedback has been brilliant & to give you an indication of the interest. The day the photos & summary newsletter story went onto our website the stats showed over 4,700+ page opens.
Coaches We have to say a big thanks to all our coaches who have got their teams off to a sensational start this season. A special big thanks to Deano & few other Dads & players who have been visiting the multi-cultural boys at St Pauls school & doing some one on one skills training. Also a big thanks to Senior Chairman Adrian “Bear” Wallin & Senior Coach Tony King who have done cameos helping the regular coaches train our U10s & U11s. The kids love the seniors helping out & we will see more of this in the future. However, don’t forget to be reciprocal & bring the family to come & watch some senior games to cheer on their new mentor coaches.
Sponsor Thanks A big thanks to new club sponsor U6 Dad Luke Aston & his company OzWide Freight for supplying new U9 Guernseys & fence signage. Very much appreciated. Please always support all our Puma Sponsors. To find their details just click on the logos on the LH side of this page. We will also send out a newsletter soon highlighting all team & club sponsors.
Clothing The demand was so high we ran out of most stock of our Puma Apparel earlier in the year. We have now restocked our junior shirts, socks & junior training singlets. Also for the fans we now have new SAFC hoodie jumpers & jackets. All are available for sale at the bar. But be quick!
