Firstly, thank you to those that have their names down to compete in this event.
Basically to run a successful event, be it Juniors, Youth or Adults I believe you really have to have the kind generosity of a sponsor to get behind the event and make it worthwhile for all to compete in because unfortunately gone are the days of competing to win or have a go - it really is all about money!
If you change the format and increase qualifying games and final games this will also mean an increase in the amount that you have to pay towards lineage, which in turn leaves less in the prize fund.
For Fairfield and Bankstown we tried to incorporate ways to increase participation by females and juniors into these events!
We have many dedicated and interested parents out there who want to see the Juniors and Youth grow, granted we don't have too many sponsors.
This is a problem - but when there is a problem there is always a solution! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Attached is an updated squad listing.
Looking forward to seeing most of you on the weekend.
Take Care, Sue
