It is going to be a great evening and I look forward to seeing you all there on the night. PLAYER MILESTONES RISING STAR WINNERS Josh Murray - Josh loves the contest, sees ball and gets ball no matter what position he plays in. Josh just loves Under 8 Black playing footy with his mates. James Paglia - James is an enthusiastic participant and trains well. He has a long and accurate kick and has Under 9 Green already shown great improvement during the games. Gus Simpfendorfer - Gus has been playing consistently well this season. He has improved his game immensely Under 12 Green and has been listening to instructions and playing good team footy. Charlie Nancarrow - A great start to the season, showing strong offensive play kicking some great goals, while Under 11 Green also providing great run and ferocious tackling for the team. Calvin Lehr - For showing great persistence and all round improvement as well as playing with outstanding Under 12 Black spirit and attitude when playing for the opposition team as an even up player. RISING STAR WINNERS Paddy Byrne - Paddy started the year a little unsure but has really found his feet in the last few rounds. The Under 8 Green highlight, and perhaps turning point, was the Round 2 game again Glen Iris when late in the game Paddy got to the ball first and received a free kick for a push in the back.

    DO IT FOR THE JUMPER THE CROWS JUMPER'S FIRST 25 YEARS This page is intentionally blank DO IT FOR THE JUMPER! THE CROWS JUMPER'S FIRST 25 YEARS PREFACE There were several catalysts or reasons behind the writing and production of this book - the history and heritage of the club jumper. The history - a systematic record of the design, development, changes and use of what the Australian Football community recognises as the Adelaide Football Club playing strip. The heritage - the tradition, importance and cultural influence that the jumper engenders, represents and plays within the culture of the Club, its players, members, fans and supporters. The Heritage Committee was established for the purposes of ensuring that the history, the culture and the achievements of the Adelaide Football Club are preserved for the present and future generations of members and fans of the Club and for football and its supporters in general. One of the key purposes of the committee, identified in its charter, is to provide leadership and make recommendations to the AFC Board in matters relating to the heritage of the club and nominates the club jumper as a significant heritage item, sacrosanct in fact. The Heritage Committee was asked to have input into the recognition and celebration of the Club's 25th year. One suggestion it made was to look at not records, achievements, games or individuals but to focus on a constant throughout the 25 years - the club jumper. Recently, a secondary school student, Lachlan Avery, asked the Club for help with a project he was doing.
