MEN'S FOOTBALL<br />
SOCFC goes in to <strong>2019</strong> off the back of a well<br />
celebrated A Grade Premiership.<br />
The club is upbeat and excited for the year<br />
ahead. Round 1 begins in the first week of <strong>April</strong>,<br />
and Ladies Day will be round 2 against traditional<br />
rivals Unley Mercedes. The Leadership group has<br />
just been announced, consisting of Jono Lagonik<br />
(‘10) the newly appointed Captain with Harry<br />
Jolly (‘13) and Jack Young (‘10) alongside him.<br />
It is particularly good to see a number of new<br />
faces fresh out of school, notably Louis Heard<br />
(‘18) and Lachie Paddick (‘18) after impressive<br />
First XVIII seasons. Just as good to see is Alex<br />
Saies (‘06) and Angus Twopeny (‘07) coming<br />
back to the club after stints overseas. Having<br />
this great mixture of youth and experience will<br />
hopefully be SOCFC’s ticket back to Division 1<br />
for 2020.<br />
The club is also particularly thrilled to gain an<br />
insider at the Crows, with Rampant Lion Kym<br />
Ryder elected on to the board for <strong>2019</strong>/20,<br />
congratulations Kym!<br />

WOMEN'S FOOTBALL<br />
After our inaugural year in 2018, SOCWFC is excited to be back on the training<br />
track and developing further ahead of Season 2! With Round 1 scheduled for the<br />
end of <strong>April</strong>, trainings are starting to ramp up as skills and relationships between<br />
players strengthen.<br />
We are very pleased to announce the appointment of Phil Winwood as Senior Coach<br />
for this year. Phil is a former parent at <strong>Scotch</strong>, with a long involvement in both<br />
football and other school sports. Phil takes over from 2018 coach Ian Steel, and<br />
we would like to thank Ian for the experience and knowledge he passed on to the<br />
girls over 2018.<br />
On field, we continue to grow and have welcomed a number of new players to the<br />
club. We are lucky to have a new crop of 2018 Year 12 graduates join us and look<br />
forward to strengthening the transition between school sport and Old Collegian<br />
clubs. Many of our new players do not have ties to <strong>Scotch</strong> College and we welcome<br />
anyone with an interest in trying football to come out to trainings!<br />
We have many sponsors we would like to thank for their ongoing support, and are<br />
always looking for more supporters, volunteers, and players! If you would like to<br />
