Many thank-yous are owed. Firstly, to our opponents, Macedon Ranges. With a large number of newbie players in their team, they were gracious in defeat and modelled the friendly demeanor that both clubs want to promote in this fixture.

Then to our Director, Kerrie, who mastered the unusual movement, and the people wrangling that goes along with that, with aplomb. 

Next, to the two team managers: Louise (Maine) and Cate (Macedon): it takes a lot of co-operative liaison and behind the scenes organisation to get an event like this up and running smoothly.

...and many more.
