Just in time: Top Rosewood club soccer performers recognised

THE Rosewood United Soccer Club committee was re-elected after a superb effort to finish the latest awards presentation with two big storms threatening.

Club president Tammy Crawford retained her role, along with treasurer-registrar Lisa Fairbridge and secretary David Graham at the Saturday night AGM at Thagoona.

Tammy was pleased to have stability in the committee as the annual club awards ceremony just finished in time.

“The first storm came. It went past us,” Tammy said.

“But the next one, all of a sudden it changed and the temperature changed.

“Then we just got this rain bomb that covered the field in water.

“But we got everything done.”

Among the major award winners were the Senior Women’s side which were premiers this season.

Other team and individual awards were presented, highlighting the Rosewood club’s successful season.

“They have all been just amazing this year,” Tammy said, preparing for a work trip to Melbourne and short break from soccer duties.

“We’ve already re-signed well over half of our numbers from this year.”
