There are just a couple of points I wanted confirm with you all.
1. The on ground catering will be operational from Midday Saturday and 11 a.m. Sunday. The bar will operate both days.
2. I can confirm that the Under 16's match at 10.45 a.m. Sunday will be the deferred Under 16's TAFL fixture between Inverell Saints and Manilla Magpies. The coaches confirmed this today.
3. The weather forecast suggests late rain Saturday and showers on Sunday. There is a drought here so we won't be complaining. The Saints have obtained marquees from JobLink Plus for spectator cover if needed (or for Collingwood supporters whichever applies!!)
4. I will be doing live pre-match reports on 2NZ, between 11am and midday both days. I would appreciate teams making coaches available for interviews etc. This is a great opportunity to push our great game into rugby league heartland. The support of the Inverell Times, Radio 2NZ and the Super Radio Network has been outstanding. I was advised today that both Prime and NBN would be filming for news and may also require some interviews. All media are to be given access to all parts of the ground at all times.
Safe travelling, everyone. The gates will be open from 10am both days at Varley Oval the home of the Inverell Saints FC.
