No football played, but still plenty of planning and organising going on, to not only get through this season but to set our mighty club up for season 2021 & beyond.

21.01.2022 Just a reminder - we are still seeking coaches for some of our junior sides & volunteers to help run the junior program. Remember - it’s support in these areas that allow our kids to play & enjoy football. Without volunteers, our junior program would not run - please consider helping these kids out - even in a small role - all hands help with the work required. Coaches will be provided with the required training & support. These young kids are the future of our club

Our new recruit and cousin to Mason, Naomi Johnson is also raising money for this cause. Link below.... Any support is appreciated https://www.facebook.com/593217654/posts/10158438913347655/

16.01.2022 Today is R U OK Day - reach out & check in, as we all have difficult days. "Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh. There was a pause.... "Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet. "No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do." "That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend. "What are you doing?" asked Pooh. "Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either. "But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh." And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right.

08.01.2022 Attention Under 18.5 Men’s: To all Under 18 Men's Players Guys Pre Season training recommences this Monday 18th January at the Small Westy Ground at 6 PM. Attendance by the Under 18's was poor pre Xmas and it was the same few regulars who turned up and did the work getting fitness and skills started.... Its a huge year this year and there is a lot to learn with Under 18's being introduced to Game Plans and Structures which all players will need to know and understand if we are to have any success. With numbers we have anticipated it is planned to run two sides, we have 2019's Under 17's and a lot of boys coming up from Under 16 level to the Senior Club this year. Under 18's football is vastly different to junior football with fitness and skill levels way above junior levels. This year training attendance will play a significant role in who gets the opportunity to play in practice games and then into the opening rounds. If you dont know the plans and structures and dont have the fitness levels to keep up you will not be selected to play Starting PreSeason Training in February or March and expecting to be able to keep up wont work. Over the next three weeks til the end of January we expect every player who intends playing this year in the under 18's to attend at least 3 sessions. If you cannot get to a session then a call or text to the Coaches - Glen on 0418592527 or Brett on 0414 204 135 must be made to let us know why you cant get there and when you will train next. Guys this is not junior football where everyone gets a guaranteed game, this is senior football where you must earn your position in the team. At the end of January if we dont have the commitment from enough players for two teams then it is likely that only one team will be entered in the under 18 competition which means those that haven't committed to play will miss out. Season 2021 starts Monday

03.01.2022 Re: the upcoming AGM
02.01.2022 This Thursday is R U OK Day? But let’s start earlier - check in on a mate, colleague, friend, family & see how they’re faring & then follow up - there’s more to say after R U OK? offer an ear & really listen suggest outside professional support make contact again & follow up... It’s tough in Melbourne at the moment for many, make the time, give support to each other & remember, there’s no shame in reach out & seeking help. Remember, from next Monday some restrictions ease: 2 hours outside for exercise Singles can nominate 1 person & form a bubble Curfew 9pm - 5am Let’s support each other & get through this. Life Line: 13 11 14 Kids Help Line: 1800 551 800 Headspace: 1800 650 890 Beyond Blue: 1300 22 46 36
