Junior footy kicks off

MONBULK JUNIOR FOOTBALL
Season 2017 has started for the Monbulk Junior Football Club with some age groups having multiple entries and the creation of an Under 12s Girls team.
Round 1 saw all teams taking the field in good spirits and competitively with the majority playing against Olinda on a sunny Sunday.
Under 12 Girls were at Belgrave but lost against a more settled and refined team in Belgrave.
This week, Round 2 saw Monbulk Junior Football Club hosting Woori Yallock at home and due to the sheer number of teams being fielded this year by Monbulk, two of the teams – Under 12s Girls and Under 14s Maroons – took to the field at Silvan Football Ground.
It was a day of mixed success but ended on a high with the Under 16s scoring a win and a great family atmosphere of the club’s first meal night.
