Now that the season is well under way and most registration issues have been sorted out, the association are now publishing the draw up to 3 weeks in advance.This should be the case for the remainder of the season which should help everyone plan their weekend activities with more certainty. However, due to various reasons there may be amendments to the draw, so please double check your match schedule regularly.
This coming Sunday (May 20th) will see our SWA team play in round 2 of the State Cup. Their opponents are Bass Hill RSL and the match takes place at Lockwood Park, Waterloo Rd, Chullora, kicking off at 9.00am. If anyone is free please come along and support the girls.
Team photos will take place on Saturday May 27th & Saturday June 2nd. Managers for our Saturday teams should have received an email and also a text message reminding them of this. Please get all your paperwork in this weekend. Sunday girl’s teams will receive their information packs at a later date and their photo shoots will take place in July.
Senior teams that wish to have photos will need to contact us to organise this.
The May coaches & manager’s meeting will take place next Monday (May 21st). Please note that due to renovations at Club Menai this meeting will be held in the upstairs section of the Menai Indoor Sports Centre (Allison Cres, Menai). There will also be a Special General Meeting (SGM) commencing at 7.30pm, immediately before the coaches & manager’s meeting. The SGM is being held to vote on a change to our constitution (as set out below) and should only take 10 minutes.
The coaches & manager’s meeting is very important especially at this time of year where there is a lot of information we need to pass on, so please make sure there is a representative of your team there.
Coaches please check out the online coaching manual you can access via the ‘Coaches and Managers’ icon to the left on our website.
We are still looking to fill the following committee positions (referees coordinator for club refs, assistant grounds officer & assistant equipment officer).
We are also still looking for more ‘club volunteers’, so please consider getting involved in the life of the club through one of these positions.
Bookings are coming in fast for the 25th anniversary function on June 15th. Those teams that have not done so, please get your forms in as soon as you can.
The number of reports being lodged in the weekly newsletter is falling off. Please lodge these reports so others in the club can read about the exploits of your team.
Good Luck and Go the Mighty Brumbies
