Welcome to Roos News

Welcome to the April edition of Roos News.

Can you believe we are only just a week away from the 2021 season commencing?  A lot of work has been going on behind the scenes with our committee and volunteers working tirelessly to get things ready.

Your coach or manager will be in touch shortly with details on the first three rounds of the season’s draw.  Our FIRST home game will be on Saturday 24th April which is very exciting as we have a newly upgraded oval to play on.

Trial Matches

On the 28th March three of our League Tag teams were given the opportunity to play a trial match against the Leichardt Wanderers.

For some of these girls that Sunday game was the first time they had played, so it was an awesome opportunity to get that first game under the belt before the season starts.

We were fortunate enough to have the Forestville Ferrets offer their home ground Ferretville as the venue, where the sun was shining and there were meat pies and hotdogs for sale!  We are very grateful for the Ferrets’ hospitality.

Season Launch

Please mark in your diaries Thursday 22nd April from 6pm for our Season Launch.  Training will happen as normal, with teams training from 5pm, asked to finish by 6pm for formalities for commence.

For those teams training from 6:30pm, don’t worry, there will be plenty of food and drink ready for you when you finish your session.

We look forward to seeing everyone there!

Volunteers Needed!

Do you want to make a contribution to the Roos?  Not sure what role you could do?  Do you have an hour or so to spare on home game days?

We are looking for volunteers to take on the role of Game Day Ground Managers.

If you are able to assist please email our Coaches and Managers Co-ordinator David Zimmer at david@thezimmers.id.au for more information.

 

Merchandise Store

New items have been added to our merchandise store, Roos Polos and Jackets for both men and women.  These new items will be embroidered with the Roos Logo.

Feedback so far on our jackets are that they are warm and definitely weather proof especially during the last spell of rain we have had.
