OUR games set down for last Saturday and Thursday afternoon training were cancelled due to the flooding of the fields.
There are another couple of recipients of the Lions Club Sportsmanship award that I would like to mention.
Luca Wallace cheers his team on, even from the sideline while waiting for a run. He listens closely to his team parent and always puts in a huge effort. Soccer, like any sport is about learning, growing and being a part of something bigger than yourself. It’s about high fives after a good play, bouncing back after a tough moment and just enjoying being out there with team mates. That is exactly what Luca does and we are very proud of him and lots of our players. Well done Luca and thank you Tea Gardens Lions Club.
Lucca Fidden took out the Lions Club Sportsmanship honours back in round 7. Lucca is a true all-rounder on and off the field, always puts her whole heart into the game, encourages her team mates and reads the game beautifully. One of her team mates was yet to score so far this year so Lucca rallied her team mates and did everything she could to set up her team mate for a goal, and she nailed it with the crowd going wild at what they had just witnessed. Moments like these remind us that sport is not just about winning, it’s about friendship, support and lifting each other up. Well done Lucca and congratulations.
Walking Football (soccer) is on again this Saturday. Come along to Memorial Oval at 12 Midday for the meet’n greet and kick off at 12.30. Everyone and anyone over 50 years old is welcome.
Bring a chair and a cold refreshment. Hot sausage sandwiches, Tea, Coffee, soft drinks available at our canteen.
Drop in for a look!
