ABBOTSFORD JUNIORS FOOTBALL CLUB 2018 YEARBOOK Mathew Maiese : Mathew played most of the season moving between midfield and attach, he scored 5 goals for the year making him a threat up forward, his great kicking ability meant he could shoot from long range, he was also one of the main corner takers, his height and size also made him a threat in the box, he scored our only headed goal from a corner for the year. His main role was in midfield where his poise on the ball and great kicking allowed him to set up forward attacks. Toby Denton: Toby has an exceptional ability to run and run and run, his work in midfield was one of the reasons the team was so successful, he was also able to move back into defence to assist with opposition team’s better players, he was also able to move forward scoring 3 goals for the season. Paris Oikonomou: Paris has exceptional ball skills, he constantly tormented teams from the left wing or midfield and was one our main attacking weapons, he has the ability to run with the ball and take on players, and usually got past them, he scored 4 goals for the season but made countless assists with his strong runs forward. Julian Mantle: Julian had an exceptional year, he has great skills with the ball, he has good speed and game awareness which made him a good user of the ball in midfield and a constant threat forward, his 13 goals, 9 of his favoured left foot, made him the team’s top scorer for the season. Julian was one of only three players to play every match.

ABBOTSFORD JUNIORS FOOTBALL CLUB 2018 YEARBOOK UNDER 13/1 On 13th February, at our first official training session, coach Roger Vertannes said to the team, 'Boys, we came third last year. Do you want to win this year?' The boys looked somewhat bemused and the response was a muffled 'Yeah'. Then Rog said to the boys in a louder voice, 'Boys, I said, do you want to win this year?' This time the response was raised to medium volume 'Yes'. Rog then retorted in a loud, strong voice, 'Boys, ..........I can't hear you. I saidddd .......... Do - You - Want - To - WIN - This – Year?’, to which the response was a rousing ' YESSSSSSSSS!'. And so began the journey. Training nights with painstaking drills across the full FFA curriculum for this age, fitness workouts, school and/or development squad training, cross training with other sports, trial matches and grueling Sunday club matches. It was a wonderful journey which culminated in a hard fought, nail biting, 1-0 Grand Final win. Win, lose or draw, we are so proud of the boys in the team. Team first we say. Many thanks to Rog, Rob, Joh and all the parents for their wonderful contribution to the team. Now to do it all again. Mark Aldridge, Assistant Coach 49 | P age
