It was an all Onslow final for Grade 7 at the Days Bay Festival of Football, which meant the club came 1st and 2nd in the tournament. A wonderful opportunity for the children to take part i such an event and also a great achievement to come away as winners and runners up.

Om March 20th it was a gloriously sunny day and OJFC Grade 13 children provided the ball kids for the Phoenix game against Perth Glory. The children were given 1.5 hours instruction prior to heading out to the field. The most important instruction they had to remember was to keep the game moving and to always keep your eyes on the game. The Phoenix coordinator praised the behaviour and performance of the children from Onslow, which was wonderful to hear.
