Well what a deluge of rain that was. Our Roccoco oval looked more like the aqua fun parks we visit on the coast.
No football of course over last weekend as we all assess the damage, wait and continue with our 2022 pre-season campaign.
In fact, there was still plenty happening at the Roccoco Noosa Tigers and it started last Tuesday night when the crew from Outside the Locker Room addressed 70 men and women on the subject of mental health which was justly applauded by all that attended.
Later in the year the same team will speak to our entire senior and colts lists on the effects of drugs and alcohol in an educational process that is just so relevant and important to sporting clubs like ours these days.
Great to see Noosa girl Bella Smith being named in the emergencies for the Brisbane Lions AFLW team over the past few weeks. My insider tells me she is burning up the track at training and seriously pushing for a senior spot in what is the reigning premiership team who are also flying. Keep at it Bells.
At this stage our practice games this weekend are still going ahead with the colts up against Moreton Bay from noon, seniors up against Mayne from 2pm and our women playing a six quarter game against Surfers Paradise from 4.45pm. For all further updates please look at our Facebook page and social media over the course of the week.
And of course one of the social days of the year ,the annual golf day is this Sunday from 11am at the Noosa golf club. One not to be missed.
On a sadder note the Noosa Tigers AFC send their condolences to the families of Bob Cross and Michael Sobey who both passed away last week.
Bob was, of course, an ex-Tiger treasurer and superb volunteer whose son Brad has been a pivotal member of the Tiger family for over two decades.
And Michael was a sports mad pillar of our community who frequented our presidents’ lunches and race days.
Both will be sadly missed.
See you at Roccoco oval Saturday and at the golf day on Sunday.
Should be a cracking weekend.
Go Tigers
