2012 JUNIORS

Once again Kerri and Rob Thompson have provided a wonderful year of coaching and competitions run each school term. The husband and wife team make a very difficult and demanding job look effortless as they structure three grades of kids into teams and provide fun yet competitive pennant competition as well as providing free on-going coaching services to all the juniors every Thursday night. Special thanks also to Doug Schoer who also attends to help out at the kiosk or with training and umpiring.

Each year a junior is chosen for their dedication to their sport and receives the Andrew Wilson Memorial Perpetual Trophy this year again presented by Andrew's father Alan Wilson. Andrew Wilson died when the plane he was piloting crashed in Sydney in 2010 but is fondly remembered as a Junior and Senior Champion at the Traralgon Club by Rob and Kerri Thompson.
