In 1888, the Black Diamond Cup, Australia's oldest existing and active sporting trophy, was first awarded to the champion team in the region. In 1888, a touring Fitzroy Football Club defeated Wallsend by 10 goals to 5. The following year, Wallsend defeated Fitzroy. Excerpts from the Wallsend Australian Football Club: Commemorative Program & Club History (1985), compiled by Ross Walters (Life Member 1985): Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 5 Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 6 Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 7 Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 8 NSWFA clubs of the day were playing for the Alexander trophies as West Sydney, City and Redfern joined the throng. The code enjoyed wide interest in the Newcastle district where by 1884 Newcastle City, Newcastle, Merewether, Northumberland, Hamilton and Wallsend together with the afore-mentioned Maitland were in existence. Wallsend maintained their connection with Sydney AFL when they played West Sydney at Wentworth Park on 7th July 1894 when "there were several thousand people present" which ended in a draw, West Sydney 1.9, Wallsend 1.9. Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 9 Reformation – Return to the League Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 10 The Black Diamond Australian Football League – Modern Era The Black Diamond Australian Football League (BDAFL) was formed in 2000 from a merger of the Newcastle Australian Football League and the Central Coast Australian Football League. The name "Black Diamond AFL" derives from the Black Diamond Cup which has been awarded to the Newcastle AFL Premiers since 1888 (Wallsend). During the 2000-2002 BDAFL seasons, Wallsend was amalgamated with West Newcastle under the guise of the ‘Demons’, winning a BDAFL premiership in 2001. This win was against Cardiff, with the scores being: WEST (21.9-135) d CAR (18.13-121). Seniors folded soon after this win. The Junior Club - Our First Premiership of the Modern Era In 1984 the Wallsend’s Under 17 Team under the guidance of Coach Ross Craney (who is still a coach and life member in the current Wallsend Swans with the Under 9’s) won the premiership. To celebrate the occasional the Club in collaboration with major sponsors, Compass Pools arranged a special bottling of forty dozen bottles of ‘Draytons Rich Port’ wine. In 2005 the local Wallsend community again backed the Swans and they re- entered the local, current junior competition. Today the Wallsend Swans are a very fast growing and friendly club for children from the age of 5 to 14 based at Bill Elliot Oval, Maryland. In the past five years we have seen extraordinary growth with a 300% increase in our numbers and have expanded the number of teams in the local league exponentially. Wallsend Swans JAFC Handbook – Season 2016 11 In 2011, we were recognised by NSW/ACT AFL as being one of the largest and most successful Auskick Centres in the Hunter Region Area, and our Auskick Coordinator (Sharon Beck) was awarded the “Regional Auskick Volunteer of the Year”. In 2013 the community spirit of the Swans was again recognised, with Julie Cox awarded the Newcastle Junior AFL’s Volunteer of the Year’. In 2015, Wallsend Swans finally saw some finals action after a number of years of being absent, with both our Under 15s and the Under 17s joint venture team with Lake Macquarie making it to the Preliminary Finals. This was a fantastic feat, especially for the Under 15s who comprised of predominantly new players who had only played together as a team for ½ seasons.

    Surrey Park Junior Football Club Hear us ROAR! www.surreyparkjfc.com.au Date 29/05/2016 Opponent Glen Iris N Round No. 6 Venue T H King Oval Match Report This week saw the boys travel to the T H King oval which I am reliably informed, is steeped in a rich history of sporting achievement…for some. The Panthers were about to make their own. Justin was Captain and represented the team well at the coin toss. Now, some people ask me why I’m talking into my phone at the game. First of all I’ll say, it’s not unusual for me to multi-task. Between election campaign strategy meetings, both domestic and international, chairing various boards via ‘FaceTime’ (the thing where your face comes up on a phone, technophobes), admonishing my brokers for selling too soon, I find time to record match reports on the fly. This week it went something like this: https://youtu.be/wvnydzZXBEI?t=98 GOALS! GOALS GOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLSSSSSSS!!! Harry scored 1 on the end of some great clearance work by Billy and Rohan, ably supported by Tom Macey and Justin. Harry scored another, after combining really well with Jack. Then Jack swooped on a loose ball created by a turnover forced from a great tackle by Barnaby, and snapped truly over his left shoulder. We kept it going in the 2nd with a really nice running goal to Julian provided by some link play with Harvey. Ezra and Harvey combined well for a chain of handballs and the mids were continually driving the ball forward.

We have attracted 13 Clubs/18 teams to this tournament and we thank you for this dynamic demonstration of the growing strength of Women’s AFL community. The Challenge was developed in response to the identified need for clubs to secure competitive pre-season trial games; to test new players and provide a real game environment beyond clubs internal training. Clubs are also seeking to build the capacity and skills of volunteers for club game day officials by providing game day training and experience. We have been supported in the development of this project by AFL Sydney. For 2019 we have chosen the AFLX format to ensure maximum participation with two fields and two pools operating on the day. The Breakaways designed the Challenge event as a Carnival & Clubs Picnic to encourage comradery amongst the women’s clubs and players while still engaging in competitive football. We encourage teams to spread the story about women’s AFL. Use the promotional material with your club logo and bring you friends, team mates and support your team - bring a marquee, picnic and picnic rugs - enjoy the day.

  • VAFA Field Umpires 2012 Coaching Manual
    VAFA Field Umpires 2012 Coaching Manual EXPECTATIONS In preparing to umpire in the VAFA in 2012, I’d like you to consider what the coaches expectations are of you as umpires. A few thoughts are listed below but you might have others in mind: Strive for an excellent knowledge and understanding of the Laws, their Interpretations and the Spirit of the Laws Train regularly with purpose and enthusiasm Attend and participate fully in coaching sessions Seek continual self-improvement Attempt to apply feedback from your coaches Be open, honest and approachable in your communication with your coaches and the football community Be loyal and supportive of your colleagues Build positive relationships with the football community Take pride in the job that you’re doing Be a role model in behaviour and personal appearance Place the safety and welfare of the match participants above all else More, please… In the two umpire system, umpires using their partner’s whistle as a trigger In the three umpire system, the MZ umpire taking control of ball ups and boundary throw ins from around 35 metres to the arc. Reason: there must always be an umpire in the EZ close to goal Umpires working as a team. Good consultation between all umpires. Plenty of tap throughs, including awareness of the position of the other umpire for “chest tap throughs” For set shots at goal, the umpire staying at the mark until the player with the ball has stopped moving For set shots at goal, the umpire displaying forward vision while and after backing off For effective

  • Surrey Park Junior Football Club Hear Us ROAR!
    Surrey Park Junior Football Club Hear us ROAR! www.surreyparkjfc.com.au Date 10/05/2015 Opponent Bulleen Templestowe Round No. 5 Venue Templestowe Reserve Match Report After a wet morning, the Templestowe ground for the Colts game looked in surprisingly good condition, and after four losses, the boys were keen for a win. Unfortunately, they fell less than a kick short after a competitive game. We began kicking with the wind, and a free to Hans Anjou gave us the chance for an early forward entry, which led to a rushed behind. With the breeze being quite strong in the sections of the ground that weren’t sheltered, marks were hard to judge, but a Jack Stewart mark sent the ball forward, and a free to Harry Lacchiana gave us our second behind. James Marshall’s snap a few minutes later added another point to our score, while some good smothers kept the ball in our forward line. Hans again kicked it forward, but Templestowe’s loose men were proving a problem. A free kick to Templestowe gave them their first score, albeit a minor. When the kick-out was judged over the line, the pressure was back on Surrey Park, but the Panthers stood tall and cleared the ball. Fierce tackling from both sides meant that the quarter time score line was a mere three points to one in the Colt’s favour. Determined to make up for not kicking a goal with the wind, the boys forced the ball forward and got the first score of the second quarter.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • 2016 Female Diversity Championships
    2016 Female Diversity Championships DAY 2 Match Report Kickstart South Australia were still searching for their first win of the season after being on the end of a brilliant team performance from Victoria. The Vics took the game convincingly, setting up the match in the first half, to sit comfortably 15 points up at half-time. Hailee-Jane Stokes was a stalwart in defence halting the South Australians entry as Chelsea Briggs-Baksh kicked a goal and produced plenty of assists in the 4.7 (31) to 0-1 (1) victory. Kickstart A blistering second half from Tasmania saw the side nearly pinch their first win of the Kickstart tournament when taking on NSW/ACT. Frantic calls were coming from the Tasmanian bench as the ball hovered around centre half forward in the final minutes of the game. But on the last line of defence Rheanin Booth took a strong mark in the goal square to ensure her side would take victory. Erin Naden backed up stunning performances on the first day with another blistering game. She showed her class with an outstanding run through the centre of the ground shrugging off a host of opposition players to send the ball inside fifty, helping her team to a 1.4 (10) to 1.0 (6) win. All Nations Northern Territory may not have got the result against Western Australia but their sportsmanship on the field reflected the meaning of inclusion at the tournament. Both sides shared a laugh and a chat before the second half got underway, but pleasantries stopped when the ball was thrown up.
