U10 - Beaumaris Kings

The last game; and there's one thing we know.... Most of our kids just don't run. Saying that they played well and were up against a VERY improved and changed side. I want to thank everyone for volunteering their time and money to make this a very enjoyable season.

Congratulations to Orlando for receiving the outstanding achievement award for his overall performance this year


Coaches' Corner : 
The first half we were still asleep the second half we started jogging and things were a bit better but overall not our best game of the season. Hopefully everybody will want come back next year and do it all again. Thanks to Jason and Karl and all the parents for helping. One thing we did improve on was the half time fruit which was of a high standard every week, some weeks had 3 or 4 selections.


We need to get all the stingray playing tops back so they can be recycled for next season.

U10 - Sandringham (Hurricanes)

The best we've played all year and we lost. We were ahead then some poor defense let in 3 easy goals. We came back but the clock, and Harry's hat trick, was denied. It's been a tough year but the boys have improved 10 fold. Looking forward to the last game and perhaps we can go out with a win.

****THE BETTER TEAM LOST****

Congratulations to Jackson Curtis for receiving the outstanding achievement award for his previous game.

Coaches' Corner : 
Another tough game where we played well but in the end lost the game. We have one last game to get our defense working and that's it for the year.
Also training on Wed night for last time - we will do some stuff and then get the parents into a game.

U10 East Bentleigh (Stingers)

Another game the boys should have won. This was however the game where they all ran like the wind and gave it their all....... If only they could clear the damn ball. POWER boys POWER. As can be seen in the pictures they did have a 25 year old playing for them (refer to photo) and a few boys with mustaches but the game was played in good spirits and they all had fun. Jackson's goal was a cracker and we need more POWER behind each shot.

Congratulations to James Loffel for receiving the outstanding achievement award for his previous game.

Coaches' Corner : 
It was a good effort with 2 players away. We need to work on clearing from defense which cost us in the end. We managed a record with 4 keepers today which seemed to work ok. We will train on Wednesday night as usual with no games next weekend.
