Round 6.
May 17th 3:23PMWhat a week Round 5 was for the Roxburgh Park Football Club! Firstly the Seniors and Reserves notched up their first win of 2012 both against Keilor Park also for the first time in a year all 3 teams on the day (U/18’s, Reserves & Seniors) got a win which was a great achievement for the club. It was brilliant to see the number of support the club had on the day and the sigh of relief at the end of the game as the pressure was off! This week the Seniors come up against Glenroy who ex-Carlton star Lance Whitnall plays for. Let’s get another big crowd down this week to support our boys and maybe notch back to back wins. This week the U/18’s, Reserves & Seniors will be playing at home against Glenroy.
U/18’s starting @ 9:30am.
Reserves starting @ 12:00pm.
Seniors starting @ 2:15pm.
On the other hand, it wasn’t such a successful week for the Roxburgh Park Juniors. All teams both in Div 2 & 5 lost their games apart from U/14 Div 5 as the other team had forfeit. The kids are still enjoying playing and turning up to training in numbers every week. Let’s hope our little start can get a few wins on the board this week!

Round 5.
May 11th 11:26PMRound 5, Round 5, Round 5! Who would have believed that round 5 of the EDFL season is already here. After a disappointing display by the U/18’s last week against East Keilor, this week is their opportunity to redeem themselves and turn their season around. The Reserves also fell short but what a great display they put in and the signs are promising for the rest of the season. The Seniors without a doubt displayed their best performance last weekend. Although they went down by 4 goals, it was a brilliant game and the signs are good. We would love our fans to come out in the beautiful cold weather to support the boys!

Congratulations to U/10’s & U/14’s Div 2 on winning their first games and to U/10’s Div 5 keep going boys use will get to sing the song very soon.

Ahmed Saad
May 5th 10:29PMOn behalf of everyone associated with the Roxburgh Park Football Club, we congratulate Ahmed Saad on making his AFL debut for St Kilda against Hawthorn in Round 6 of the 2012 season. The first ever Roxburgh Park footballer to make it to the highest level. A credit to him for working so hard to go all the way and an inspiration to all our young boys who dare to dream. As a postscript he came onto the ground at the start of the 3rd quarter and had an immediate impact snapping a fantastic goal on the run. Again big congratulations Ahmed.

Round 4.
May 4th 7:14PMWhat a quick start to the year 2012 has been, it's already May and Round 4 in the EDFL season.
Looking back at the Seniors & Reserves great effort last weekend against Moonee Valley could this be the week they get their first win on the board? The U/18's played out a brilliant come from behind 5 point win last weekend to get their season kick started. After a hard tough week on the track it would be awesome to see a big crowd getting down to the games on Saturday to support our boys and hopefully walking off singing the song. The Seniors, Reserves & U/18's are all at home this Saturday against East Keilor. The game times are:
U/18’s starting @ 9:30am.
Reserves starting @ 12:00pm.
Seniors starting @ 2:15pm.
GOODLUCK BOYS!
The Roxy Juniors are having a not to bad start to the season. The U/14's Div 2 are un-defeated and having a brilliant start to the season. They play enjoyable football to watch. The U/10's on the other hand haven't won a game yet but the kids are still having a ball and enjoying every moment of their first years of football. The support we are getting behind our juniors is extremely excellent so let's keep it going for the rest of the year as they are looking up to us. The Div 2 will be playing away too Oak Park this Sunday and the Div 5 will be playing at home also on Sunday against Taylors Lakes.
