WALKING FOR A CAUSE

Last month, our president Chris participated in a 96km walk to support Soldier On's life-saving mental health services to help our brave veterans and their families.

"Why 96km? Because I'm taking on the length of the Kokoda Track to honour the courage and sacrifice of our veterans, both past and present."

Chris ended up walking 101kms and raising nearly $400 which was over his target of $300.

Great effort for a worthy cause!!

SEE YOU LATER

We say see you later to one of our long time umpires.  Ryan Powell is off to Melbourne.  Starting back in 2012, we have watched him grow from a junior to a senior umpire and start in goals and end up field umpiring.

 

We wish you well in your new adventure in life and pop in and say hello when you are in town!!

 MEMBERSHIP FOR 2022

 

Please consider becoming a member of our association as it helps us to help you and our group.  We would encourage all who are umpiring to join up.  The benefits of being a member can be found here.

 

Membership forms and fees can be found here.  Juniors we do need a parental consent, so you will need the printed form with a parents signature to be submitted. Parents of juniors, if you would like to join up it will be great to have them on board.

 

If you have any further queries do not hesitate to ask a committee member!

FARKUP

 

Don't forget to get your FarKup entries in to the secretary. 

 

For those that are new to the group, our FarKup award is presented every awards night to the person who has the best boo boo for the season.

 

So if you see or know of any FarKups let the secretary know and it does not necessarily have to be football related!!
