23.01.2022 COVID-19 UPDATE To the Border Raiders Family, As you would all know by now on 17 March 2020 FFA suspended all football activities in Australia until 14 April 2020. ... This evening FFA have announced that this suspension will continue in effect until 31 May 2020.

11.01.2022 Congratulations to our very own Jeff Scott on being recognised by Moama Anglican Grammar for his volunteering contributions to the community and our Club! Thanks for all your hard work Jeff! Whilst we have been busy readying the club to return to footballing activities it is important to take the time to recognise and appreciate the tireless efforts of the volunteers within our club and our community.... Volunteer week is the perfect opportunity to do this. Our volunteers, be it coaches, committee members, linemarkers, parents and other volunteers put a staggering amount of their own time and energy into making sure that everything is organised so that our players can focus on playing football. Often this time and effort goes unrecognised and we encourage the Border Raiders family to take the time to thank the volunteers that make it all happen. To our volunteers on behalf of the Border Raiders family, thank you for all your fantastic work!

08.01.2022 The club has tonight made the difficult decision to withdraw our junior teams from BASL competitions for season 2020. We will instead be entering our junior teams into a modified local competition to be announced in due course. In light of the border closures and the conditions of the NSW border crossing permits, it is not viable to continue in BASL competitions for this season. Many of our members live, work or are educated in Moama and cannot afford to self isolate for a 14... day period after travelling to Bendigo for an away fixure. We understand that this will be disappointing news for all our members however the committee and volunteers will work hard to ensure that there is viable local soccer available for our members and the wider Echuca Moama community in the near future. Community sport is so pivotal in these difficult times and can offer a fantastic sense of community in addition to the substantial mental and physical health benefits. Please stay tuned for further announcements. We hope that you, your friends, colleagues and family will join us to participate in the new local competition for 2020 when it is announced. Please note that no decision has been made in relation to our senior teams as the BASL senior competitions do not commence until 26 July 2020. Training for all age groups is cancelled for tomorrow night. Should you have any questions, please message the page or email [email protected].
08.01.2022 Over the next couple of weeks we will be placing posts featuring our sponsors of 2019. Without their financial help throughout the season we would struggle to field sides in both our senior and junior competitions. So thank you very much for putting your hand in your pocket and helping us out. Where does the sponsorship funds go? ... These funds are used to run the club. For example, purchase of new equipment, hire of grounds in Moama, referee payments, insurance and affiliation fees with BASL. No money is used in paying players. As we are playing in an amateur league and therefore all players play for the love of the game and club. If you or your business would like to sponsor the Raiders in 2020 please contact our sponsorship co ordinator Jonathon Keele on 0428 638 682. Go Raiders in 2020.

Furthermore, we are excited to confirm that Football Victoria have advised a Return to Play date of 28 June 2020. This is still a working date but it is something that we as a club are very excited about and we are sure that all our players are excited to get back into playing the game.
