Annual Report 2007 - Glebe District Hockey Club

week for the team and caused Graeme and Danny many unnecessary headaches during the
year. The job of the Club Captains grows more difficult each year and Graeme and Danny did
an outstanding job in difficult times. Those of us who choose a team sport need to think more
of their team and club mates because the number of last minute withdrawals this year did no
one any credit.
After a rough patch during the middle of the year Third Grade finished the year strongly and
was very unlucky not to be competing on Grand Final day, where we would have been very
competitive. Third in the minor rounds and third in the major rounds was a good result all
things considered, though not good enough in the end. Many of the younger players improved
considerably and will be able to progress through the grades if they are able to apply
themselves consistently each week and put the hard work in at training.
My thanks go to all the players for their efforts during the year. Third grade always played as
a team and worked hard for each other. Many players doubled up each week but still gave
their best for the team in the true Glebe spirit. Thanks also to Adam Campano and Paul
Jowett for their leadership and contribution to the team each and every week especially when
I was unavailable, their input was greatly valued. Congratulations to Andrew Fox as Player’s
Player, a very worthy winner.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all
