Great games in chilly conditions last weekend

Break time for New Norfolk Under 7 Black.
Under 6 Red played Derwent and put in a good team effort. Well done to Jake Smith for a goal from the centre and to Ruby, Noah and Anna for great team work.

Under 6 Black put in a great effort on a very cold morning, with a goal scored by Lucas. Well done boys.

Under 7 Red won in a fantastic effort against Holy Rosary at Holy Rosary. A top effort by Tristan for his goal kicking.

Under 7 Black played an awesome game versus Moonah in freezing conditions at Tynwald Park. A special mention to Oliver Rhodes for scoring his first ever goal. Amber Rainbird, Rodney Browning and Tristan Nicholson each scored a goal and well done to Lucy Gleeson who played one of her best games. Keep up the good work team.

Under 8 Red took on Glenorchy in freezing conditions. Despite being undermanned there was some great team work from our boys with Jack and Hamish scoring great goals from excellent play. Jacob Priest, Nayte and Declan all attacked the ball well. Special thanks to Glenorchy for lending us a player to serve as our goalie for each half.

Under 8 Black played a very hard game with only six players and no subs and they did a great job once again. Jack was a standout after playing in the Red team earlier. Only minutes into the game he was hit in the face with a very fast hard ball but his courage saw him come back on the ground after a very short break and he scored a great goal. Josh saved some great goal attempts from Brighton and stayed in goals the whole game. Mikayla, Astrid, Mia and Jess also tried very hard.

Under 9 had a fast-paced game against Dominic with Cruez being our only goal scorer for the day. Well done to Maiken and Oliver for some great kicking. Congratulations to every member of the team for their wonderful sportsmanship under trying conditions. Well done all of you!

Under 10 had a win against Holy Rosary. Goal kickers were Maddy, Alex Bourne, Ostyn, Alex McMillan and Brock (2). There was great defence work from goalies Luke and Alex Bourne, who were well backed up by Aidan, Alex Gunn and Jacob in defence.  Special mention to Kiara, Alex McMillan, Freya and Ostyn who all played a half for Holy Rosary with Ostyn kicking their only goal.  Well done everyone.

Under 11 defeated Bagdad 3-2 in -2C temperatures at Bagdad on Saturday. Another fantastic team effort with Lane, Levi and Brayden being this weeks goal scorers.

Under 14 lost to Tilford Zebras 3-0 but the scoreline didn’t reflect the closeness of the game. A few good stops in the goals kept the score down. New Norfolk had some long score attempts and if they had converted we would have had a much closer game on our hands. Good luck for next week team!

Under 16 lost to Glenorchy Knights at the Showgrounds. The team showed great commitment in the first half, pushing forward on numerous occasions and was unlucky not to convert a few more goals. Jacob George played hard in defence and Jordan Bailey was unlucky not to convert a cross pass. Liam Kalbfell scored our only goal from an accurate penalty shot.

Dion Barnhoorn played very well
for New Norfolk last weekend.
Seniors - Division 4 lost at home 2-1 against University. New Norfolk started brightly and took the lead through Ollie Chaplin after a defence-splitting pass from Tom Sheppard. Despite being completely outplayed, University managed to scrape in an equalizer before half time.

In the second half New Norfolk continued to take the game to Uni but just couldn’t put the ball in the net and with 15 minutes remaining lost a sucker-punch goal on the counter. The team has a long road trip to take on the Peninsula Pirates at Nubeena at 12.30pm this Sunday, June 8.

Bridge bingle earlier tonight

A RIDE on the back of a truck was the outcome for this sedan following a collision at the Hamilton Rd end of the New Norfolk Bridge late this afternoon. Witnesses said a utility was the other vehicle involved in the crash. The incident prompted a flurry of comments on social media calling for a roundabout to be built at this busy junction.

Seventh win for the Eagles

SOUTHERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE
ROUND 8 MATCH REVIEWS

New Norfolk 22.25 (157) defeated Sorell 4.6 (30)
NEW Norfolk travelled down to Pembroke Park to take on Sorell and showed no fear. After a dominant first quarter where they kicked five unanswered goals, New Norfolk raced to a 36-point lead and looked to have the game well at hand at quarter time.

Sorell played a more defensive game in the second quarter and whilst they held the high-scoring New Norfolk to only four goals they did not appear to have any structure up forward and the game was over at half-time with the visitors leading by 60 points and a big win was assured. The second half was all New Norfolk but they still regularly miss easy shots at goal and some goal kicking looks to be on the agenda for coach Jon Murray.

Best players for the New Norfolk were Clifford, Horne, Belcher and Josh Hall who kicked six goals and was well supported by fellow forward Wilson with six. Gardam kicked three and continued his fine season.. Best for Sorell were Chapman, Taylor, Evans and Pace.

New Norfolk 5.8 9.14 13.21 22.25 (157)

OTHER GAMES

Brighton 13.21 (99) defeated Huonville 9.10 (64)
BRIGHTON continued their recent good form and remain two games out of the top five after a dominant display at home other than their inaccuracy in front of goal. They eventually defeated Huonville by 61 points in a one-sided affair.

Claremont  24.13 (157) defeated  East Coast 9.5 (59)
CLAREMONT finally pulled together four dominant quarters and really made a statement to the East Coast Bombers to show them how far they are away from the top two sides. With a brilliant display at home, the Magpies eventually ran out comfortable winners by 98 points.

Dodges Ferry 19.14 (128) defeated Hobart 8.6 (54)
DODGES Ferry bounced back after last week’s disappointing performance against New Norfolk and showed no fear against an improving Hobart at the TCA, eventually running out winners by 74 points to move a game clear in third position on the ladder.

Lindisfarne 30.15 (195) defeated Cygnet 8.4 (52)
LINDISFARNE did not allow Cygnet to get into the game as they came out of the sheds full of running and with an accurate display raced to a 25-point lead at the first break. The game was over at half-time when the Two Blues held a 48-point lead. The second half showed why Lindisfarne is right up there with the top sides this season. They had the opportunity to relax but piled on a further 15 goals while holding the opposition to one goal.

Long service recognised

Some of the past and present members of the New Norfolk
Historical Information Centre Committee at yesterday's event.
A GATHERING of past and present members of the committee of the New Norfolk Historical Information Centre was held yesterday to acknowledge the work of retiring member Colin Jones.

Mr Jones and his wife Wendy were guests of honour at a light lunch in the committee's rooms in the Shoobridge Centre in Circle St. Committee chairman Ruth Binny said it was lovely to see some of the committees former members and volunteers in attendance.

"We are here to thank Colin for putting in 16 years of service to the HIC," Mrs Binny said. This extended to all facets of the committee's work, from serving as secretary and writing grant applications, to design and carpentry work.

Mrs Binny said Mr Jones had also been an active member of the Derwent Valley Garden Club, Croquet Club, Willow Court Working Group and the Derwent Valley Tourism Association at various times concurrent with his historical committee service.

Mr Jones was presented with a certificate of appreciation and a book of maritime maps in keeping with his previous career at sea. Former committee member Vic Barnes presented a framed photo of the committee taken at the time of New Norfolk's bicentenary in 2008 and mayor Martyn Evans presented a token of appreciation on behalf of the council.
