Both the Junior and Senior teams qualified for the Winter IPSSO AFL finals in second position.

The Junior team played Wollondilly in their semi. We played a tight opening quarter but our opposition pulled away in the second to hold a commanding position. We rallied at half time and played much better; outscoring Wollondilly in both the third and final quarters. Unfortunately, we didn’t do quite enough to qualify for the grand final.

The Seniors game against St Peters Anglican closely mirrored that of the Juniors with a tight opening and then getting overrun in the second term. Down by 34 points at half time, we clawed ourselves back to give us an outside chance but alas we were not quite good enough to cover the deficit, losing by seven points.

Both teams we played in the semis went on to win their grand finals, and both by a greater margin than what they beat us by.

Both our Junior and Senior teams have some exceptionally talented players.

It has been a great joy and privilege to coach both teams this year, seeing skills develop and camaraderie that a team sport nurtures so well.
