The Riverton Football Club was celebrating it’s 50th year this weekend and one of the events was a family day at Riverton Reserve. Jeremy was really excited because there was a parents and kids Auskick match.
There were lots of Auskickers from the Joey’s, Kanga’s and Boomers teams. The Super 8s had Ethan, Kevin, Jeremy, Jayden, Jayden’s little brother, Kobe, Matthew, Damien and Truan. For the parents we had myself, Scott, Marty, Adrian and Darren.
All of the boys had a few possessions each which was great and they all seemed to really enjoy themselves. I recall Ethan kicking a good goal on the run and Jeremy snapped an excellent goal from a long way out. Marty was easily the best of the Dad’s, he was leading for the ball and quickly playing on and bringing the kids into the play by handballing and kicking to them.
Truan told me that Matthew, Damien and himself had shifted house and were now living in Kenwick. He said that they still wanted to play for Riverton but the travelling from Kenwick to Riverton may be too far. It’ll be sad if Truan, Matthew and Damien can’t be a part of the team anymore.
