The
3rd Division Women's team are back on track for the finals after a
2-0 victory against Uki on Sunday. Goals were scored by mother/daughter duo Jo
and Georgia Slade.
Other
teams looking to make the finals rounds are the Men's 2nd and 5th
Division, Boys and Girls 14's teams. The under 12's 1st Division
team had a commendable game on Saturday against Goonellabah with a very tight
match. Well done to all teams and coaches for the season so far. Your
dedication and enthusiasm is what keeps our club moving forward.
Remember
if you would like to post some photos of the junior comp on the Woodburn Wolves
website contact Tracy Knox via the site and have them on display for the
community to see.

We desperately need Mums and Dads to help out in the canteen... DONT BE SHY... Step up and do your bit.
The Jobs are not hard, .. (Anyone can butter bread rolls, stock the pie warmer , and make a cup of coffee etc).. If you can lend a hand PLEASE see the girls in the canteen..... They are always happy when they get some help.
Please Remember,, Your kids wouldn't be playing at Woodburn this year if it wasn't for the support of the committee.. And, at times, the committee need parents to help too. Many hands make light work.
______________________________________________________________________________________________ Competition Procedures All Coaches, Players and Parents should read the information in the Competition Procedures below, so that you are familiar with the rules of the Competition and procedures that are suppose to be carried out during the games... Clubs who do not follow these procedures can receive FINES imposed by Football Far North Coast.

Parents or Coaches of junior teams are
asked to send in a quick game result and info on your teams effort on
the weekend. email it to . Tracey Knox ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Player of the Week Competition: Northern NSW in conjunction with McDonalds are promoting Junior ‘Player
of the Week.’
We would like to encourage junior players (U6 &
7 and U8 & 9) to submit their photo to be selected randomly as Player
of The Week.
Click on the link for more info.
They would appear for that week on the Northern NSW
Football website and receive $100 of football gear.
Parents will need to submit details of the player and contact details of
parents/guardians of selected players who will be contacted for approval.
Should the selected player come from our zone, the players photo will also
appear on our zone website.
I am also happy to take player photos as I
travel around and I will organise appropriate forms that parents can give
consent for this purpose. More information will appear soon on the FFNC
website.
Coaches of the junior teams are encouraged to send
a game report to Tracey Knox so that she can include it onto the web Page.
Junior teams enjoy reading about their games on the web too. (Not too long,
thank you. ) Maybe just the team results, game scorers etc.
So, once the games commence, could coaches please consider doing one each week,
or if your team has a good game, and you think a game report is worthy of
mentioning. Reports can be sent to
Swearing or any inappropriate language towards
other teams or officials will not be tolerated at all. We recently had a bad
example of this from spectators. Not only does it damage our reputation but is
also embarrassing for players representing our club. Demonstrating good
sportsmanship from the side line is most important and any downgrading comment
is not only insulting and totally unacceptable but also remains a bad
reputation on our clubs image. So remember Football is the game for kids, and
next time think about being positive and not negative, our club is counting on
you!
