Under-15s take on Oldies' team

Woy Woy Rugby League players from the Under-15.1s, who were the runners up in this year's Grand Final, will take on a team of coaches, trainers and committee at their presentation picnic on October 23.

The Golden Oldies team formed to be part of the fun match at the presentation day at Woy Woy Oval.

Club president Geoff Staunton who organised the match said "The Golden Oldie Team has been training weekly for the past month.

"We don't know how we will go, however we do not want the Under-15s to think we are a walk over"

Mr Uptin said there was a real bond between all the boys, most of whom have played together since the Under-10s winning that grand final and making it to most grand finals along the way.

"They were there on grand final day, giving support and cheering on both the Under-10 teams.

"The younger players looked on in awe as the older boys prior to the match gave them a stirring rendition of The Want To Win.

"It was a very proud moment for the club as a whole, to see the boys at this age, along with about 100 other club supporters, keen to be there for the younger players."

The presentation day at Woy Woy Oval will commence at 1pm.

Other events on the day will include a touch football match with the Under-13s against the women of the club, three legged races, with an older player buddying up with a younger player, sack races, and egg and spoon races involving the whole of the club.

The canteen will not be open and no alcohol will be allowed.

"Pack a rug, picnic basket and be prepared for fun and laughter as well as the presentation of this year's trophies," Ms Uptin said.
