Woy Woy Swans hold 30-year reunion

The Woy Woy Peninsula Swans Australian Football Club held its 30-year reunion weekend over the June long weekend.

"Past players came from as far as Queensland, Victoria and Tamworth for the event," according to committee member Ms Belinda Campbell.

"Most codes had their ground closed and games cancelled on the June long weekend, but Rogers Park was opened late Friday and the Swans reunion weekend went ahead."

Ms Campbell said an enthusiastic crowd turned out to watch the current team win against Gosford Tigers on the Saturday.

The reunion dinner was held at the Woy Woy Bowling club on the Saturday night.

"The friendly atmosphere and the food at the club were exceptional and helped to make the night a great success," Ms Campbell said.

"There were club newsletters, photos and trophies on display from the past 30 years.

"Past Clubperson Bill Best and current president Danny Brown cut the reunion cake."

More than 100 people attended the celebrations.

"The past players had the opportunity to pull on their boots again in the Golden Oldies Game.

Ms Campbell said there were now only seven games left until the semi finals with the last game of the season to be held on August 12.

Only three of the games will be home games, to be held on Saturday, July 1 and 8, and August 12, at Rogers Park, Ocean Beach Rd, Woy Woy.
