AFL Mackay Juniors Playing on Saturday at Sarina
This Saturday (18 May) sees AFL Mackay Juniors Football being played at Sarina Showgrounds for the first time.
The local Club Sarina Demons will be hosting the Mackay City Hawks Under 9’s and Under 11’s at 8.30am and 9.30am respectively.
AFL Mackay Juniors host Under 7’s, Under 9’s and Under 11’s under lights each Friday night at Harrup Park – this concept has, and still is a huge success with ever increasing player numbers and development of AFL skills, and now the competition has expanded with including Clubs from surrounding areas of Mackay - namely Sarina Demons, Alligator Creek Bombers and Pioneer Valley Power.
Having a home ground and home game is an exciting step forward for the Sarina Demons as mentioned here by Demons President Vanessa Creeley “....
“It is a very exciting time for the Sarina Demons we have just managed to gain a new home ground at the Sarina Showgrounds which is prime real estate when it comes to road frontage. This is a credit to our great Club as many members have made this come to fruition. We are thankful for the Sarina Show Society in seeing the benefits of us being a part of their fantastic grounds. This move is going to help our relatively new Club (being only 3 years old) grow via way of player numbers due to more exposure to the community and also with sponsors.
All the Club and especially the kids love being able to play at home, and this home game being the first for the 2013 season will be extra special.
Our next home game will be us hosting the Country Carnival on the 28th July and we are excited about this as we get to accommodate all the Mackay Clubs and showcase our great new ground.
With the exposure our new home ground will now give us as a Club we are looking forward to inviting and embracing the Sarina Community and surrounding Districts to be a part of our great family orientated Club and to attend the Country Carnival. We look forward to witnessing the wider community getting to enjoy and experience our great game AFL.”
