Weekly Update - 3rd October
Greetings Rovers fans!
Welcome to another edition of our Rovers news update! We appreciate your ongoing support and enthusiasm for all things Rovers. As we gear up for an action-packed weekend, both our senior and junior teams are set to take the field this weekend.
Join us for a slice of fun at our pizza night following junior training this Wednesday. Stick around, grab a bite to eat. Plus, for our junior players, after Wednesday’s training, you’ll find out which team you’ve been assigned to.
Jake and the incredible team from The Hurlocker Fitness are here each week with their weekly fitness training sessions. Mark your calendars for every Wednesday at 4:45 PM to gear up for a 5 PM start. This is not just an opportunity to get fit but a chance to make the most of your time while your kids are in training. For the unbeatable price of $10 per session, you can join in on the fitness fun. Payment can be made conveniently to one of our dedicated committee members. It’s the perfect way to stay active, healthy, and involved with the Rovers community.
A round of applause goes to CFN Fusion for their stellar victories over the weekend at the Bulls Masters Country Challenge. Plus a very big thankyou to those that helped setup and served in the canteen over the weekend, it is very much appreciated.
See you all on the field!
