From 7.30 with a few games to keep the night entertaining! CATS OF 2014 Check out our website or facebook page www.neerimneerimsouthfc.vcfl.com.au or ‘Like’ on facebook: Neerim South Cats PRESIDENT’S REPORT Glenn Flowers A warm welcome to The Longwarry footy and netball club today. At half time in the seniors today I would like to welcome all of ours and Longwarry’s life members, committee and workers for afternoon tea. I would also like to welcome everyone to stay back and have a drink after the game. Last week against Poowong in atrocious conditions we weren't good enough to get over the line and a win against one of the top 3 sides on the way home is imperative to our chance of playing finals footy. The same can be said about the second's who really struggled for any cohesion last week and were totally outplayed by Poowong. The junior boys continue to impress with the U18's having great success so far. We have to pick ourselves up and be positive and really challenge the Crows today. The netballers will also be desperate for wins today to keep any hope alive of contending in the finals series. Our Cat Draw 2 weeks ago was a great success for the club and all who partaked in the evening. A big thank you goes out to the coordinator’s of this event in Bec Ladds, Nicole, Harry and Hummers who did a great job of bringing it all together and thanks also to Kim Fawcett who did a great job of selling the tickets in which only 4 were left over and Andy Smith who did the music on the night.
