Well our last home game for the season - wow it has gone very quickly. Thank you to everyone who has helped with the roster this year, turning up on time and filling in where needed. It has been greatly appreciated.

A few notes for this week......

JUMPERS
A reminder that all jumpers MUST be returned at the conclusion of the last game (VS BELGRAVE at Belgrave) next sunday. Remember to bring along something to change into as it can get very cold without a jumper on!!!!! If you are not playing the last round please return your jumper at the conclusion of this weeks game.(Vs Yarra Junction at home) Each team manager will collect the jumpers for their team.

FAMILY NIGHT
Last one for the year, casserole and curry - anyone interested in cooking please give Carey a call 9755 2460.

ROSE COTTAGE
Tickets will be on sale this sunday, please come along and help support this event - not only is it a fundraiser for the club it is also a really fun night.

2011 SEASON
Planning for the 2011 season will commence very shortly and with this in mind it would be helpful to have an idea of our numbers for next year - therefore would you be able to reply to this email indicating your intentions for next year....ie Players re-registering, parent helpers for teams etc......It would be greatly appreciated. Also if you have any ideas to help our club improve please feel free to include those too.

ROSTER
Below is the last roster for this year - there are a few gaps so if you are able to help out please call Carey and let her know.

Good luck to all this sunday,

Well we a really back into the swing of footy - especially as I look out the window at the fog and rain. Brrrrr!!!!! Great to see our numbers growing and everyone getting involved and helping around the club.

The committee are calling for anyone interested in filling the following two PAID positions.

1. Cleaner

After a home game we are required to leave the club rooms clean and tidy ready for the senior club to use them during the week. This involves cleaning out the two change rooms, vacuming the carpet and a quick mop of the ladies toilet and kitchen. It is estimated that this would take between 1 - 2 hours. This would need to be done either Sunday evening (after family night) or first thing Monday morning. Payment would be $50. If you are interested please contact Ian Taylor (we only have 5 home games remaining).

2. Barista

Late last year the club obtained a coffee machine (courtesy of the Sassy General Store - Thank You), which is sitting idle in the bar at present. We used this during the final we hosted last year with a great response from those who purchased coffee. It is a great fund raiser for the club and we would like to get it up and running during this season. We require the services of an experienced Barista (maybe suited to a student) who would be available from approx 10 - 2 (hours may be flexible). Payment would be $40. This again is only required for home games (5 games left for this season). If you are interested or know someone who may be please contact Ian Taylor.

Good luck to all the teams on sunday.

Go Bloods,

Liz Horner.

Training has now concluded on Monday nights and will change to Wednesday nights (same times) commencing Wednesday 24th March. Football boots may now be worn on the ground. Remember to notify the coach/team manager if you are unable to train.
