During December we carried out some restoration work to Field 1.

This included cutting the grass back to it's root base, then turning and decompacting, leveling and redressing.

Whilst we can do our own work on Field One, we believe council are also going to set about top dressing the outer field also. This should make for a nicer playing surface for all concerned next season.

The Figtree U/10 Div 1side met Bondi Utd in the Grand Final of FNSW Champions of Champions 2009 at Valentine Park on Sunday 25th Oct 2009.
 
Figtree went into the game undefeated this season but unfortunately were totally outplayed by Bondi Utd going down 6-1. Bondi play a brand of football far above their years, which is shown by them having 4 team members make it through to the Project 22 program at FNSW. They too were undefeated this year in their competition. Our Congratulations go out to Bondi United players, coach & parents.

However, hearty congratulations must also go out to the FJSC boys, coaches & parents. They can hold their heads high in reaching the Grand Final in their first year of graded football and will surely benefit greatly for the experience.
 
Well done boys, you have done FJSC and the IJFA proud this year !

Figtree's U/10 Div 1 side have capped off an amazing year by making it to the Grand Final of the Football NSW Champions of Champions Tournament 2009. This is a fantastic achievement for a side playing their first year together as a graded team and remain undefeated this season.

The boys played last Sunday 18th October against Carss Park at Sth Granville. In another heartstopper, and for the second game in a row, the outcome was once again decided on penalties after the game was locked at 0 - 0 after normal time & golden goal extra time. Figtree once again prevailed 4p - 3p to advance to the Grand Final.

Their opponents will be Bondi United from the ESFA who defeated Forest/Killarney 3-0 in an impressive display. Figtree meet Bondi United this Sunday 25th Oct at Football NSW HQ at Valentine Park, Glenwood kick off at 10.30am in the decider to see who will be 2009 State Champions. The boys have displayed fantastic commitment, skill and above all a never say die attitude in every game.

They never give up and every player plays for the full 50 minutes and gives 110% no matter the score - most of all they are a great group of kids who have fun and love playing football together! Everyone involved with FJSC wishes the boys the best of luck next Sunday, and are sure that they will once again continue to display the determination and commitment that has made us all extremely proud of their achievements this year, and they will represent FJSC and the IJFA admirably.

Once again boys well done and best of luck !!

Whilst most teams have soaked their socks and washed their shorts for the last time a number of weeks ago at the conclusion of the 2009 Season, Figtree U/10 1's have continued to train twice a week in preparation for and to compete in the Football NSW Champions of Champions tournament. The boys have continued their fantastic form they displayed throughout the regular IJFA Competition which saw them become undefeated League and Grand Final Champions. The boys have shown terrific determination, commitment and football ability in the first 3 rounds of the tournament to progress to the semi - finals to be played on the 18th October 2009 - a fantastic achievement.

After their latest victory last Sunday 27th Sept 2009 against Kincumber FC, the boys were asked to represent the IJFA and FJSC as the sponsorship and Australian flag bearers at the People Care District League Division 1 Grand Final at Macedonia Park, Berkeley. The boys were given a great reception by the crowd and have also been asked to once again represent the IJFA and FJSC to carry the Australian flag on Sunday 11th October 2009 at the Illawarra Premier League Grand Final to be held at Crehan Park, Cringila kick-off at 3pm. The boys had a great afternoon and were each given a football as a momento of the occasion - it was hard to wipe the smiles off their faces after such a memorable day!

I am sure the boys will continue to be a credit to FJSC and play to the best of their abilty over the next few weeks as they strive to become Football NSW U/10 Champions of Champions winners - whatever happens the boys have represented IJFA, FJSC, their parents and themselves proudly, but most of all, have enjoyed the challenges and the experiences that football has provided them with this year !
