ABBOTSFORD JUNIORS FOOTBALL CLUB<br />

2018 YEARBOOK<br />

OVER 30 WOMEN/1<br />

The 2018 season was the<br />

greatest year for Woman’s<br />

football in the history of the<br />

AJFC. 6 years after<br />

introducing Women's<br />

Football to the AJFC, this<br />

team has secured all the<br />

titles in Women's Football,<br />

winning the Over 30 Division<br />

1 Women's Grand Final, after<br />

claiming the undefeated<br />

minor Premiership.<br />

Mary Sattout, Yvonne Shehata, Mariana Sousa, Sarah Barlow,<br />

Clare Beech, Veronica Porras, Silje Reiten, Kristen Weber.<br />

Coached by Tyron Farmer.<br />

Managed by Kylie Farmer.<br />

Our goal this year was to beat last year’s efforts and make the final<br />

series. We managed to achieve so much more. We became<br />

undefeated Minor Premiers thus qualifying for the NSW Champion<br />

of Champions competition and winning the Grand Final against last<br />

year’s winner Leichhardt Saints and taking to Campbell Park for<br />

the very first time, the Eileen Potter Cup.<br />

What was the winning formula? We had so many strong key<br />

players. Our defensive line was tough, fast and adaptable. Our<br />

midfielders played an attacking and defensive role seamlessly,<br />

they were super fit and worked extremely hard. The Strikers were<br />

phenomenal scoring an incredible 86 goals. Our Goalkeeper<br />

Juliette Flowers, a team favourite, has developed into a quality<br />

keeper who has dedicated herself to her goalkeeping role and has<br />

kept the team on the winning side with some excellent saves and<br />

conceding only 10 goals for the season!!!<br />

A superb season for this<br />

wonderful team. We fielded<br />

18 returning players and 1<br />

new recruit. The 2018<br />

Abbotsford FC Woman’s over<br />

30’s Division 1 team for 2018<br />

are:<br />

Nicole Collins, Nicole<br />

Caryofyllis, Nicole Marrone,<br />

Kylie Farmer, Juliette<br />

Flowers, Vanessa Hadley,<br />

Ellisa Mamas, Anna Mangos,<br />

Cherie Marantz, Chrissy<br />

McDonald, Grace O’Neill,<br />

Our Coach Tyron once again encouraged a style of possessionbased<br />

football that suited the team. A very strong pressing in<br />

defence game which rolled into a total possession passing game,<br />

and absolute quality finishes that demolished opposition teams<br />

early in the game.<br />
