2010 Another Successful season for the Hornsby Berowra Eagles
Another season has come to an end, season 2010 has followed on from our best ever year last year with success throughout all age groups.
This year another successful Auskick Program was conducted it has been fantastic to see so many of the future stars of this club working on improving their skills, of note was a couple of players who started the year in Auskick but moved through to complete the year playing football in the under 9's congratulations to all players, parents and coaching staff for their contribution this season.
The under 9's and 10's although not playing in a structured scored competition throughout the season will be playing over the next 2 weeks in Gala days against visiting clubs at Rofe park, I would like to thank the Clubs Junior Co-ordinator, Under 9's red Coach Adrian Browne for his effort in getting this organised, this gives the kids the chance to play against other clubs in a finals type atmosphere and enjoy a couple of extra weeks of playing footy.
Congratulations to all other teams, each of our graded teams have had a successful year with the Under 11's 12's and 14's making the finals. The under 13's were unlucky in missing out in playing in the finals by 1 win, this indicates strength throughout the club with all teams more than competitive as the younger teams merge in the older age groups in structured scored competitions.
With Finals footy upon us I would like to re enforce the Code of Conduct to all players and parents that will be involved in the upcoming finals. I have learned this week from the AFL of a member of our club being reported by umpires
The code of conduct is on our website please be familiar with it. Abuse of umpires will not be tolerated with action being taken by our club and the AFL
Let's enjoy the success of our young players making the finals and not spoil it by remarks directed to the umpires or officials. Remember that your behaviour as a player or parent reflects not only on your team but also our great club.
Let's all enjoy the upcoming weekends in the finals campaigns
Hopefully we will have some success from this weekend's finals to report to the rest of the club Membership as our mighty young Eagles attempt to progress through the finals. To all teams participating in the finals be aware that the whole membership of our club wishes you the very best of Luck.
