Another Pennants session has come to a close, and our Junior Pennants team has certainly left their mark. We want to extend our congratulations to Georgie, Hayley, Tanisha, Spencer, Laeson, Jack, Owen, and Aiden for their outstanding performance that made our club proud!
Our team secured an impressive 3rd place, with just 1.5 points separating them from the top five contenders. The battle for victory couldn't have been closer, with Mt Warren Park ultimately claiming the top spot with 55.5 points.
One of the highlights of the season was undoubtedly our new team shirts, which looked fantastic. Not only did our players look the part, but they also played like a well-oiled machine, showcasing their dedication and skill on the course.
To all the parents out there, we owe you a massive thank you. Your unwavering support, love, and, let's not forget, the ability to drive a car, have been instrumental in keeping our team thriving. Without you, our team simply wouldn't be what it is today.
A special shoutout goes to Alana Travers-Jones, the true queen of organisation and serving as the guiding light for all our new Pennants players. As we reflect on another incredible year for our Junior Pennants team, we look forward to even greater achievements in the future.
Last night, our club hosted a memorable shirt presentation event, and it's safe to say that everyone had a fantastic time. We had the pleasure of sharing some exciting news about our juniors, and it was heartening to see the smiles on their faces as they received their brand new club shirts.
The juniors truly looked fantastic in their new gear, and we can't thank our sponsors enough for their ongoing support. Without their contributions, events like this wouldn't be possible.
As we move forward, we're looking forward to an incredible season ahead.
