| WORLD CUP PRESIDENT'S LUNCH A GREAT SUCCESS | updated June 6, 2010 |
A great Club day was had by all present as invited speakers and dignitaries joined together in a show of support for football.
Invited guests Jack Reilly (1974 'keeper for Australia) and Mehemet Durakovic (1994 and '98 defender for Australia) and Club stalwart Jimmy Rooney (1974 midfielder for Australia) spoke of their experiences in the years they played the game and the rapid growth that has taken place in football in the years since.
On the threshold of Australia's participation in it's third FIFA World Cup the guests, as interviewed by "MC Brooksie", brought an insight into what it takes for the local player to develop their game, and the ready pathway available for tomorrow's national team representatives.
Results in the day's games went against the home side as they succumbed to defeats in the Reserves (1-2) and in the Firsts (1-3) in their highly contested local derby game against Knox CIty.
