A Big Thank you to all those players and there Families who helped with the Chocolate Fundraising Drive. Most of you may be unaware the Canada Bay Council increased the costs of hiring courts substantially this season and the profits we made from the fundraising Drive will help to pay for trophies and gifts that are given out on Presentation Day.
Well Done to all players, coaches & umpires. Hope you had a Great Year.	How does the Final Series work? The Semi finals are played on Saturday 19th August at the same time you usually play. The top 4 teams in each grade participate in the finals series.

The Final is played on Saturday 26th August and the winner advances to the Grand Final. The Grand final will be played in Saturday 2nd September Things you may not have known : ● Nominated umpires control these games and uniform checks do take place so remember to take out all you’re piercing (nose, ears & belly button) Your nails are cut short and rounded. Ensure you have correct black pants on. Failure of any of the above may mean you miss the game ● During Semi’s and Final’s if a game is a draw at the end of regular time 5 minutes each way is played. If there is still no result Golden rule is played where the first team to be 2 goals ahead wins ● If at the end of the Grand final the game is drawn both teams are named Joint Premiers and no extra time is played.
