Brookers come out on top

It was a blustery day on the hill over the weekend, but that didn’t stop the Senior team for Gembrook-Cockatoo football from securing a well-earned victory over Officer.

In challenging conditions, with strong winds and a sudden power outage, the team stayed focused and came out on top, showcasing determination and resilience on the field.

A special shoutout from the club went out over social media to the dedicated volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly despite the loss of power. Their quick thinking and commitment ensured the day could go ahead as planned.

Well done to all involved — both on and off the field — for turning a tough day into a winning one!
