Items Needed for the Quiz Night
Thank you to those club members who have already donated items for our raffles and auctions. We are, however, still hoping for more so if you are yet to check your cupboards and shelves for unwanted gifts, now would be a great time to do so. Please give your donations to your team manager or drop them off in the canteen during your training sessions. Thank you
Peoples Choice Raffle Books All sold and unsold raffle books need to be returned to your team manager by the middle of June. Please remember that we get to keep 100% of all proceeds generated through the sale of these lottery tickets. So with 10 tickets in each book, the Woodside Warriors will make $20 per lottery book sold. Please let you team manager know if you think you can sell a second book. Page 2
PERSONAL INJURY
Parents and caregivers need to be aware that the Woodside Warriors SC does not insure players against personal injury during matches or other events. We advise parents and caregivers to arrange adequate medical and ambulance cover for their children.

CANTEEN HELPERS
We would still love to see more parents helping out in the canteen particularly on training nights. Come on in, dont be shy. Having a dry run will make it far less stressful for when you are rostered on during your home games.

CLUB ROOM TABLES
Please remember that if you want to sit and relax while having your post training snag, the club rooms are open until 6pm

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Seniors Update 2014 has seen further expansion within our club with the formation of a Seniors side, which competes in the Collegiate League on a Saturday afternoon.
There are currently 19 players in the team consisting of past players, current coaches and a few new club members. They range in age from 16 to 46, which means they are able to bring youth, experience and skill to their games.
Coached by Andy Thorpe, the team has a leadership group including Lee Maker (Captain), Matt Thoday (Vice Captain) and Steve Knipe (Deputy Vice Captain)
At the start of the season, the team were placed in division 5. Following a shaky start the team has gone on to produce three wins, one draw and two losses, which currently places them equal third in the league. As the majority of players had never played together before, this has been a great result.
Due to the large number of players and given it is the first year for the team, a playing schedule has been developed to ensure all players get as close as possible to even playing time throughout the season.
There is a high expectation that the Woodside Warriors can build on the current squad for next year, which means the club will have a first and a reserve team allowing healthy competition for places on each team in the future.
The club would like to thank Airport Electrical for sponsoring the seniors team and enabling them to purchase the Woodside Warriors team strip.
You can find the fixtures as well as the ladder and team information on the website www.collegiatesoccerleague.com.au, under the division five sections, game results are also listed in the Sunday Mail each week in the sports section.
All home games are played at 1.00pm so why not come down and give your support, the team would appreciate it.
Lee Maker (Captain)
Working Bee Many thank to those of you who gave up your Sunday to help with the working bee. And especially to those non club members who let us use their equipment and gave up their free time to help make our club a better place. Thank you
