Last Friday night the club held a ‘Meet the Coaches’ social event at the Beaumaris Bowls Club. It was like a pre-season launch before the tough grind of pre-season training commences.
It was also a great opportunity for new players to meet and mingle with current players and for ALL players to meet the coaches. It also meant players from our premiership winning junior teams from last season, the U18 Girls and the U17 Boys, could do likewise in a socially relaxed manner. Nowhere better to do that than the Beaumaris Bowls Club (tremendous hosts).
The Coaches were introduced and then given the opportunity to express their thoughts on season 2023. New Senior Men’s Head Coach Josh Bourke was enthused for what lies ahead and was particularly focused on a vision for the future which included, not only success for the Senior team, but more specifically for a club that promotes inclusion and development and the opportunity for players of all abilities, male and female, to find a home at the BFC.
At this stage it is impossible to access how many teams will make up the Senior section of the club, but from what we saw on Friday night there’s every indication there will be more than the five that will represent the club next season.
It’s certainly exciting and for the highest ranked community club in the all-powerful ‘Victorian Amateur Football Association’ it represents a tremendous opportunity and challenge for our club, in the next few years, to make a statement for all teams wearing the Sharks emblem.
Go the Blue and Gold!
‘Once a Shark, Always a Shark’.
