Congratulations to every award winner and to every player who pulled on the green and white this season. Awards recognise individuals, but it takes an entire club — players, coaches, managers, committee members, volunteers, sponsors, supporters and families — to make a season possible.
Thank you to everyone who joined us on Friday night and to everyone who has supported the Rams throughout the year.
Just a reminder that the AGM will be held on Sunday 25 October at 10am.
We encourage all members, players and supporters to come along and have their say as we begin planning for the 2027 season. It’s a great opportunity to get involved and help shape the future of our club.
Everyone is welcome — we’d love to see you there!
