<strong>2016</strong> was very busy and productive year for the Jandakot Jets Junior Football Club,<br />
finally the long awaited club room extensions got under way. I would like to take the<br />
opportunity to thank the Cockburn City Council for the time, effort and money that went<br />
into the renovations. I would also like to thank all the other clubs that attended our<br />
ground throughout the year for their understanding and patience as at times conditions<br />
were trying and not what would be expected.<br />
To the season itself, I and the club were very proud of the year’s achievements, we had<br />
835 players spread across Auskick, Girls, Juniors and Youths and we had teams<br />
represented in every grade across all completions.<br />
The club fielded a total of 48 teams which comprised of 20 Auskick Teams inclusive of<br />
2 all girl teams, 1- Girls U12’s team, 19 - Junior teams Y3 – Y7’s and 8 - Youths teams<br />
Y8 – Y12’s.<br />
This was the largest number of players and teams ever fielded in 1 season by the Jets<br />
and the club thanks all the coaches, team managers, parents and most importantly the<br />
players for all their commitment and support throughout the year.<br />
The club was represented at finals time by our Y8’s, Y9’s, Y10’s, and Y12’s teams<br />
unfortunately for these teams they didn’t make it through to the grand finals but once<br />
again the club could not fault the commitment and endeavour of the all the players during<br />
finals time and thank all the teams for the way they represented the club.<br />
We had three Y7 teams play in <strong>2016</strong> and it was pleasing to see at the end of the season<br />
we had those finish 2 nd , 3rd and 5 th respectively at the end of the season which is<br />
exciting for all those players and the club as they move into the Fremantle Conference<br />
Y8 competition in 2017.<br />
The club also had state representation in <strong>2016</strong> with one of<br />
our Y7 players, Jai Evans was selected to represent WA in<br />
the Australian Nation U12 Championships held between<br />
July 22 and 30 in Maroochydore, Queensland. Jai travelled<br />
with the squad to Queensland for the carnival via a stop off<br />
in Melbourne. Jai’s family also attended during the carnival<br />
in Queensland and were very proud, deservedly so of his<br />
achievement. The club congratulations Jai and we are sure<br />
his development will continue as he moves into the Y8<br />
Fremantle Conference in 2017.<br />
Further the club had a very healthy representation of<br />
Warriors in <strong>2016</strong> across Y8, Y9 and especially Y10’s.
