First of all a big thank you to
all those players who have been turning up regularly at training each
week. It is now 5 weeks (counting this week) till the comp kicks off on
the 14 April when all three grades play Kempsey at home.
Now is the time for everyone to
start turning up at training, some of you come for one run and then
disappear for a week or two, some of you have turned up and signed the
Rego form and that’s it. With the comp just around the corner
everyone has to start turning up to as many training runs as possible.
We have three trials lined up with the first one this weekend, so
let’s see everyone at training this week. Gary will be back this
week to do the training.
The schedule for the trials is
as follows:
17 March V Taree at Taree
with kick off at 3.30. Under 18’s play
Coffs Harbour in Coffs.
24 March v Muswellbrook
at Stuart Park with kick off around 3.30. There will be a pig on the
spit after the game with the Muswellbrook boys so everyone is
encouraged to stay around.
31 March v Armidale at
Stuart Park with kick off 3.00. Under 18’s play
Coffs Harbour as well. Hopefully there will be some junior games as
well. This day will be used as the season launch and there will
be a feed on in the club with music as well after the game, where
everyone in the Club is invited to come along both past and present
players to make a night of it. It is planned to name the first grade
team for the first week that night.
So once again get off the couch
and get to training and let’s make this year the year of the
Pirate in all three grades.
