The winter season has finished and we have lots of news below regarding results from finals. There were some trophies collected by Weston Creek at the annual Capital Football awards night including a new award for Club Champions Masters. This award is recognition of the sheer number of players we have in the category (especially the women who field three teams), and the strength of our Men’s Div 1 Masters results. Well done (“old”) girls and boys! We hope to field a 3rd Men’s Masters team next year to catch up with the girls.
We are busily looking ahead and planning for next year, including an application to re-enter the Women’s Premier League competition which Capital Football is restricting to eight clubs in 2012. I’m sure with the strength our teams showed last year and the skilled and committed coaches we have on board we’ll have no problem being accepted.
We held our Junior Presentation night which was a big success. I was also lucky to attend my first Senior’s presentation night for our club this year. On what is traditionally the Women's, night we managed to get two Men’s teams along and look forward to an even bigger night next year!
Special thanks to Donna O’Brien and Fran Sankey for guiding the women’s arm of the club again this year. Donna was also continuing to act in other roles for the club since standing down as President last year. Both are heavily involved with football across Canberra and are unable to continue on in their roles, though we hope to retain Donna’s coaching services. We are looking for a new women’s chair. Also thanks to Debi Gair who has performed a marvellous job as Treasurer for two years and we are looking for two people to replace her as Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer.
Hope you’re all enjoying any summer soccer and look forward to catching up soon.

Every kid who runs onto a footy field, and every star who achieves glory and fame has had a mum, sister, wife, girlfriend, or some other woman supporting their dreams. These women are the silent stars, who do it for love, and not external recognition.
