Thanks Ball Kids!!!
The Senior club is totally thankful for the support of our Junior club who week after week provide us with enthusiastic, fantastic ball kids for our W-League and Central League Games.
The kids are so cool and do an amazing job out there every Saturday on the field in the wind, the wet, or the sun collecting wayward balls so that the games can continue with minimal stoppage time.
Thanks Kids you are amazeballs :)
