SEASON REPORT Berowra Wallabies Junior Rugby League Football Club 2019 SEASON REPORT Berowra Wallabies Junior Rugby League Football Club 1 2 Presidents Report As Berowra recovered from the December hail storms it was a slow start to 2019 for all clubs in the area, but come season launch the Wallabies fielded ten teams from U6s through to U20s. We’ve seen great improvement in all of our teams over the year and to me it was really rewarding to see the skills, teamwork, fun, friendships and club spirit continue to grow, as well as welcoming new families to join in all the action rugby league can offer. Some of the highlights include: Our ‘Joeys’ pre-school program continued to grow participation rate of boys and girls in the 3- 6 age group with ten players graduating to U6s. With some eligible to play U6s again next year, this is a great introduction for both players and parents to rugby league. In the Minis, we again fielded two U6 teams alongside teams in the U7s and U8s. Continuing our super hero theme from last year, these teams took the field this season sporting a new Captain America jersey design which was a great hit with the players. The players exhibited some great skills and showed tremendous development throughout the season which will form the basis for seasons ahead. Watching the enjoyment and progression of our mini’s is always a highlight of any season. Of our six competition grades we had five teams make it into the semi-finals with the sixth, our U20s, only missing out on for and against in a tough Sydney wide Gold competition. For our U9’s in their first year of competition, the team grew in confidence, and skill as the season progressed, finishing fourth at seasons end before losing a tight semi-final against Asquith. In the U12’s it was year of development as they went up to a full field with 13-aside under MOD rules and moved to the larger Northern Conference competition. Fielding teams in the Gold and Silver/Bronze competitions both teams acquitted themselves well. The U12 Golds finished third and progressed to the preliminary final before losing to Narrabeen Sharks; whilst the U12 Bronze made up of U12 and U11 players, finished fourth and progressed to the second round of the semi-finals before losing in extra time to Avalon Bulldogs. A big thank you to Brett Carter and Dan Ferrington for taking on the coaching roles for these teams in 2019. Our U14s Berowra and U16s Grizzlies teams were both Minor Premiers and progressed straight into the grand finals. Whilst both teams narrowly lost their grand finals it was a fantastic season for both teams, something I’m sure they will remember for a long time, and which they and their coaches should be extremely proud of. A special mention and huge congratulations must go to the following players who have reached this year a milestone with the Wallabies. Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 3 A special mention and huge congratulations must go to our players that reached 100 and 200 game milestones with the Wallabies this year. This is a terrific achievement for these players some who have played from u6s right through to u16s. As a club we would like to thank all our players with how they have represented our club, whether that be displaying excellent sportsmanship on the field, supporting and helping out junior teams or helping raise money for charities, you have all helped build a fantastic culture at the Wallabies. Thank you to all the parents for supporting your kids and teams all season and we hope to see you all back next year at the Wallabies. Spread the word about our great club and bring along a new mate for 2020 to join in all the fun associated with playing the greatest game of all. On behalf of the players and committee we would like to extend a huge thank you to all of our coaches, managers, and trainers for all for their time, effort, knowledge, patience and dedication in working to get your teams to realise their full potential. It is a huge commitment but a very rewarding one and the development of players is so evident and that is directly attributed to your efforts. We hope to see you all back involved next season. We would like to acknowledge all our sponsors for their support in the 2019 season (shown here in the pages of the year book). In a tough financial environment, we deeply appreciate each and every donation made from our sponsors. Without our wonderful sponsors we wouldn’t be able to get these kids on the field. A big thank you to everyone involved on the committee and their families. Your dedication, effort and commitment to ensure everything behind the scenes runs smoothly so the players are able to get on the field each week is very much appreciated. I would also like to thank all those who volunteered where they could at setup or pack up, on the BBQ, running lines, or in the canteen throughout the year. Go the Wallabies. Bryan Summerhayes Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 4 Treasurers Report The 2019 season saw the Berowra Wallabies producing a financial surplus. Cash reserves improved by 80%, improving the viability of the club. While registrations came in closer to the start of the season than what was planned, the late surge pushed registrations 7% above last year. The support of the local community also provided a 8% lift in the club’s sponsorship programme. Pleasingly a number of new sponsors were added to our programme, extending the coverage of our club. Costs were managed well throughout the year, despite the fact that a number of 2018 costs were paid during this season. The success of the canteen has continued this year, and it continues to be a vital part of the club’s surplus. It is important that we continue to have the help from across the club to run the canteen, without the assistance of club members the canteen would not be the contributor that it is. Throughout 2019 the club also supported a number of projects, including the new scoreboard, AED and beginner programmes. As we head towards 2020 the club has commenced building its financial plan, including sponsorship programmes, to ensure a surplus is repeated. The committee is committed to improving our surplus and cash reserves in order to support future projects and programmes. Greg Mitchell Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 5 Sponsors All of the season highlights would not have been possible without the valued contribution from our sponsors. Your generosity and involvement have given children in our area an opportunity to build lifelong friendships and skills through playing rugby league. Thank you to all our club, major and team sponsors: CLUB SPONSORS MAJOR SPONSORS Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 6 TEAM SPONSORS Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 7 Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 8 Joeys In 2019 we again kicked off the pre-season recruitment with an eight week ‘Joeys’ pre-school program running at Warrina Street Oval after school. The program focuses on developing healthy lifestyles and fundamental movement skills like catching, passing and balance in a fun team environment. Led by our qualified coaches alongside Kyle Jefferey from Rising Stars Sports Development, the goal of the program is to capture the imagination of children aged 3-5 years old and demonstrate to parents that ours is a safe and well governed sport run by enthusiastic volunteers, so that as they transition from preschool to primary school they choose junior league with the Berowra Wallabies as their sport of choice. Our ‘Joeys’ continued to grow participation rate of boys and girls in the 3-6 age group with ten players graduating to U6s. It was also exciting to see the launch of the Baby Bears programs across the North Sydney Junior Rugby League district clubs on the back of the success of our Joeys program that launched last year. Thank you to everyone involved each week running the program. Keep an eye out for our Joeys program running again in early 2020, it’s a great way to keep our kids active, meet new friends and learn more about junior league. Berowra Wallabies 2019 Season Report 9 U6 Maroon Report Coach: Marc Pasparne Manager: Kaela Pasparne We had a great season with 5 new players this year joining our team. It was a great season of watching the team change as they got to know each other. All players gained confidence and skills that helped them grow as NRL stars this year. Aryah was the only girl in our team! She was ferocious in her tackles & managed to score some try’s in her 1st season with the club. Kaise was our youngest player & had no fear this year. He committed to every tackle & would try to run straight through each time he got his hands on the ball. Duke was our speed machine who scored several try’s for the team this year & mastered tackling by the end of the season. Jono was always ready for the ball! Watching him laugh as he would get past the other team to score his try put a big smile on his face as well as the team. Xander thrived in his first season and was quick to get the aim of the game. He managed to score try’s, tackle & put in 100% effort each week. Will, Brax & Mase continued to grow in their 2nd season of NRL & will be players to watch.

We went into camp at the Pullman Hotel in Auckland on TWednesday , where the players had a recovery session followed by getting the rest of their kit thanks to BKL. That was followed by a family dinner in the hotel, then it was off to the airport to catch our Air NZ flight to the UK, with a short stopover at LA airport. The only excitement on the flight was me getting a bleeding nose as we flew out of Auckland and it never stopped the whole bloody way. The team doctor could not stop it until we got to London but all is well now. We arrived Thursday in London and stayed at the Marriott in Kensington with the first day a recovery ses- sion, with a team dinner in the hotel followed by massages for the players. The next day started with a rolling breakfast from 7am till 10am ( the same pleasant way we are starting each day) and next was monitoring and hydration in the team room, followed by a team meeting . Lunch in the hotel is followed by a weights and mobility session at a local gym called Equinox, with a team dinner out of the hotel. Saturday was much the same but Sunday we had a training run at Harrow school (very flash) followed by weights and recovery session at the school then back to the hotel for team activity which just happened to be going to an NFL game at Twickenham between the New York Giants and Los Angeles Rams.

And if there is a player who polarises opinion more than Manu, I have yet to meet him. So I better declare that I will not hear a bad word said about the bloke. Now it seems the big fellah is going to take up an opportunity to play with Salford, a British club in the UK Super League. Big Manu’s contract with us doesn't expire until the end of the 2018 season, but reports from Guardian rugby league reporter Aaron Bowler say he has signed with the Salford Red Devils. He has been a bit player of late, suffering from a range of injuries, and it is clear other players are more fa- voured nowadays, but it is easy to forget it is only a few years ago we were celebrating Manu becoming the first NRL player to score 10 tries or more every year for a decade, and that he was International Winger of the year in 2008 after the Kiwis’ won the Rugby League World Cup.
