We sent our first representative side away for many years. Our under 14s travelled to West Wyalong on Sunday and won. Well done boys, a full match report will come later. The two under 17s sides both went down to Parkes. They got the lights going over there this week.
The local derby between the under 14s was a great game, the Forbes Green team coming out on top over the slightly more favoured Forbes Blue. Results will follow.
Both under 12s sides travelled to Parkes and were beaten. The boys are just warming up – wait until next round Parkes!
This weekend the under 12s and 17s play each other at home. Under 14 Green are the only side to travel.
This weekend shirts, draws, team contacts and rules will be handed out. This should be quite helpful to players and parents.
The Milo kits should be here next week.
