MONBULK JUNIOR FOOTBALL CLUB
Another fine day of football for the Monbulk Junior Football Club.
UNDER 10s MAROON
Up against Wesburn in the fresh air of the Warburton Highway, the boys took another step forward – they were all switched on and staying in position, they moved the ball really well and gained plenty of scoring chances. Again against some older kids, but they tackled and chased hard. Great signs with some good passages of footy.
Awards: F. Clunie, W. Davidson-Tuck, D. English, J. Munro.
UNDER 10s GOLD
Fantastic effort by the team again – the team work was impressive and the hard-running position was great to watch.
Awards: C. Seamer, B. Downey, Z. Gates, M. Pithouse, C. Hooper.
UNDER 11s
An early start didn’t slow the kids down. Fast start, strong finishers, with lots of contributors.
Awards: B. McIntosh, O. Huidobro, J. Prys, T. Kostich Anderson, K. Gates.
UNDER 12s GIRLS
The girls moved to a new position this week. They came to understand their new roles in the first half and really took big steps forward. In the second half, especially with transfer of the football. Their vision and team work is fantastic. Great to watch.
Awards: B. Tipping, H. Koolstra, S. Beecroft, A. Coffey, J. Woodgate.
UNDER 12s BOYS
A brilliant effort from start to finish. Run and carry was a highlight with the ball movement from end to end. With speed and skill.
Awards: J. Downard-Pengilly, J. Higgins, I. Hylton-Stewart, J. Blandthorn, M. Blom.
UNDER 14s GOLD
The team is starting to work out what they need to do to have opportunities to score. Better at going forward and putting together good ball movement.
Awards: M. Bateson, J. Turner, A. McDonald, A. Whyman, B. Sander.
UNDER 14s MAROON
A four-quarter effort was what the coaching group was looking for. Up against a stronger team, the contested ball was great and we couldn’t ask any more of our boys. Their ball movement into space resulted in scores. A great effort.
Awards: J. Farmer, L. Fransen, B. Hughson, C. Baker.
UNDER 16s
The boys did a great job today. The club gave three players to the opposition to help them with numbers. The boys’ attitude and effort was fantastic all day. Well done.
Awards: C. Stiff, T. Trezise, J. Spencer, B. Woolridge, T. Badgery.
Forfeited by Wesburn.
