12.01.2022 Due to today's weather we have decided to postpone our presentation and AGM until next Thursday 12th November. See you next week Bullsharks!

U12's Boys - Played a great game against the South West Tigers. All players showed great team work which saw the ball moving from end to end along the field. There were plenty of good marks, great kicks and multiple goal scorers in a 60-11 win. Player of the match was Rowan Armstrong who showed one of his great goal celebrati...ons. U12YG's - The girls made the trek to Wilton to play the Wollondilly Redbacks. The sky was grey but the rain held off until the final minutes.

Player of the match went to Jess Robertson, who was everywhere on the field and also scored 4 goals. Special mention to Catalina who was definitely the muddiest at the end and also scored 4 goals. U18YG's - Played a muddy match against the East Sydney Bulldogs down at Rosedale Oval. Unfortunately they did not come away with the win this week but there were serious displays of some amazing talent from our girls. Final score was 49 to 26.

05.01.2022 Our Under 12's working hard for a finals spot.

05.01.2022 Welcome to our Round 8 wrap up! Under 9 Orange - Played a tough game against a very good Ingleburn Black team. After a slow start the team played much better in the second half. Player of the match was Jake Burden. Under 9 Blue - Lined up against Ingleburn White this week. After a slow start the team clicked into gear and we controlled the game until half time. Ingleburn came back in the 3rd quarter, but we finished strongly in the final quarter. A great game by the whole ...team. Player of the match was Lachlan Robertson. Under 10 Orange - Played a good game today with the help of some of the Under 10 Blue team against Ingleburn. Player of the match was Dain Christiansen. Under 10 Blue - Played a very strong game against Ingleburn. Our team was relentless in our pressure and handled the damp and slippery ball well. The most pleasing thing was that everyone did their bit and our team work was excellent. Goal scorers were Jeremy, Declan, Alex, Charles, Hadi and Caden. Players of the match were Samantha Gifford and Charles Basha. Under 11's - Had a rematch from last week with Camden. This week we played much stronger as a team beating them with a convincing 82 to 14 win. Congratulations to the team for playing a hard game of footy. Player of the match this week goes to Salim. He went down with an incident of the ball but came back out on to the field to tackle the hardest we have seen all season. Congratulations Under 11's on a strong and fair game. Under 12's - Played a cracking game this week with a dominant performance against the Macarthur Bulldogs. Some great chat between the team throughout the game. Some first goals scored by Liam, Lucas and Tom. Player of the match was Hayden who displayed great sportsmanship today. A great effort all round. Under 12's Youth Girls - Put in a determined game against Camden on Sunday morning, keeping them scoreless for the entire game. The girls worked hard as a team and showed great sportswomanship towards their opponents. Player of the match was Emma Duggan who was unstoppable in the centre. Under 14's Youth Girls - Put in a courageous effort against Camden. The Bullsharks girls never gave in and kept Camden to their lowest score this season, despite the game not ending in their favour. Unfortunately, despite the girls and their 'never say die' attitude, there were some serious injuries that occurred during the game. The player of the match was Ashleigh Irving, who at her diminutive size took down the biggest girl on the Camden team in scene reminiscent of something from David v. Goliath. Under 18's Youth Girls - Played their first proper home game this week against the Maroubra Saints. After losing by quite a large margin last time, it was good to see the girls put in a really good game and only lose by 12 points, a testament to their improvement across the season. Best on field this week went to Mackenzie Jackson who on numerous occasions beat two opposition players to score goals!

Player of the match was Jonah. Under 12's Youth Girls - It was a big game today for the U12's YG with a top of the table clash against Baulkham Hills Hawks - who have defeated every team in the comp by at least 60 points. The game can only be described as an epic battle and probably the best game of footy of the year, but unfortunately they were delivered their first loss of the season going down 32 to 15. Player of the match this week has been given to the whole team, every single one of these girls gave 200%. Under 14's Youth Girls - Put in a dominant performance over the Parramatta Lions today. The girls were joined by Zimra who scored the majority of the goals with a final score of 142 to 16. Player of the match was Ashleigh Irving who was brilliant, as usual.
