The minis had a great time learning the game with fun being the main aim for these little blokes.

The under 9s played their hearts out all year with no reserves.

The under 10s had a top year, making it to the final, coming up just short - again, with no reserves. A few more players next year will see these talented boys go all the way.

The under 11s had talent to burn but need to work on discipline and next year will be great.

The under 14s showed they can play footy and made the finals where injuries hampered their challenge.

The under 16s were the pride of the fleet, and made the grand final despite many others saying they would struggle without any seniors in their ranks.
