Auskick Gala Day A really great turn out for the annual Auskick gala day at the new location, Perth Demons home ground Lathain Oval – one Year 3 team, two Year 2 teams, two Year 1 teams and one large Little Stingers team. We had over 60 kids representing SPJFC which was great. The kids were in greats hands with the volunteer super coaches and parent helpers getting kids in uniform, getting them working some drills to warm up, always important to avoid injuries with a long day of footy ahead, then off they marched to take on the other clubs. The little tykes of the club the Little Stingers had a big day but they all worked and played hard and pushed on game after game. There was a couple of breaks for food and drink replenishment and some excited chatter for mum and dad, then back out on the field to go it again. The little people did the club proud to go in and give it their best, you know footy is a passion when they go go go for hours. the year 3s are the kings and queens of Auskick. These kids play The year 1 teams had a good mix of clubs to play with some hard and have a ball doing it, pun intended. Some seriously great fierce competition, and that’s just what the SPJFC kids brought to football by the year 3’s the coaches and parents should be very the day. With a taste of the gala day last year the kids were keen proud to have a group of kids that give it all they’ve got and have to get into it again this year. The two teams teamed up together fun doing it. when one had a bye and proved they are part of a great club not just individual teams. Way to go year 1’s. All in all a very successful day, I look forward to next years Gala Day, the district delivered a fantastic event at a great location, The year 2 team also had a great day, by the second of Auskick seems they even have access to mother nature by bringing the most of these kids are veteran gala day players and had it all sunshine out all day. under control, working together to dominate in their games, for those kids that had their debut gala day they certainly went Thanks to all the parents that helped with coaching, getting kids unnoticed as the newbies. All the kids played well and had heaps in uniform and supporting both the kids from our club and other of fun all day but that’s just how we roll in South Perth people, clubs we had lots of positive feedback from other clubs parents we’re superstars! about how supportive we are which makes me very proud to be apart of SPJFC. The year 3’s had bigger challenges on their hands with the competition picking up the paces in this age group, obviously, Olivia Raison – Auskick Co-ordinator

Year 10 The 2014 season is my third year of coaching at the South Perth Junior Football Club. I coached one of the Year 9 teams in 2012 and the Year 10 team in 2013. After two successful seasons, with the South Perth Year 9 Green team winning a premiership in 2012 and the South Perth Year 10 team winning the premiership in 2013, a main goal for the Year 10 South Perth players this season was to achieve more success for the South Perth Junior Football Club. The Year 10 season involves playing games After Round 14, the Year 10 team had 13 It is important to acknowledge the great against the Year 10 East Perth teams in wins and 1 loss and is sitting 3 games clear effort by Russell White as team manager a cross district competition format (such on top of the Perth / East Perth Year 10 this season.

The umpires train every Wednesday between 5.30 and 7.30pm with a combination of on field drills and fitness training, and instruction on rules, interpretation and decision reviews in the training room. They work together as a team, with the more experienced umpires passing on their knowledge and capability from game practice to the new umpires. Social functions organised by the Demons District Football Umpires Association also provide the opportunity to develop new friendships.

Depending on experience umpires from South Perth, we have controlled games from year 4 up to year 12 this season. With this new gained experience, we are now able to progress through to the next levels, ultimately moving to advanced development squads and umpiring at senior community level. Former players from South Perth Junior Football Club are currently involved in umpiring at senior levels including WAFL matches. There is a clear pathway for umpire development, with the training and mentoring provided by the Demons District. Young players with a passion for the game are encouraged to consider umpiring.
