THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS

PRESIDENTS WELCOME Dear Club Members Welcome back to the Sunshine Coast Junior AFL CLUB OF THE YEAR 2012! I would like to welcome back our past players and welcome our new players and their families to the club. I would also like to thank last year s committee for all their hard work and it is great to see both new and old faces on the committee for 2013. I was very proud and humbled to be named sunshine Coast Junior Club Volunteer of the Year in 2012 and it would not have been possible without the fantastic support from not only my family but the Caloundra Panthers family. I look forward to contributing 100% of my efforts again in 2013. A special mention to Leanne Hipwood who has been honoured at the Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards with Sunshine Coast Recreational Sport Volunteer of the Year in January this year. Leanne along with our committee works tirelessly to improve our club and this lady will always have a welcoming smile on her face. Congratulations Leanne! A very big thank you to all our sponsors for both the senior and junior club during tough financial times. It is very much appreciated and without your support we would not be able to meet the running costs of our club. This is a very special year for Caloundra AFL Panthers as it marks our 40 th anniversary. We have very generous sponsors this year that have enabled the club to purchase new playing jersey s from under 8 s through to the senior ranks and I would like to say a big thank you to Telstra, Evolve Plastering Group, Sleep Tite Bedding, Pattons Discount Meats, Citimark, E-Mini Investor, Allfreight Carrying, Squire Development Group, Glover Building Group, Caloundra RSL and Bank of Qld Caloundra. Please support these businesses as they are supporting not only your club but our juniors as well. Last year was a great year on the footy field with both under 12 sides making the finals and the under 16 s taking out the Premiership! Well done to the boys, Scott Hedley and his coaching staff. Not only did they perform well on the field they were a tight unit all year and always helped out where ever they could. I look forward to watching this group progress into our under 18 s and seniors sides. It was also our first year for the youth girls competition in which we had a very young side but their efforts could not be denied. I hope to see the girls go around again this year. It has been a tough off season for the Panthers with the devastating fire that tore through the clubhouse late in 2012. After finishing the season on such a high note, it was very upsetting getting a call late in the night to say the club was all engulfed in flames. When I arrived at the club I have to admit I had a tear in my eye after the huge renovation effort of 2012 and the amount of time and effort the committee had put into the club. The turn out on the weekend following the fire from both the Panther community and surrounding community was nothing short of amazing. The hard work and fundraising efforts have seen the club renovated again and looking better than ever. I would like

to take the time to thank each and every person for your hard work, support, personal and financial contribution, encouragement and thoughts getting the club back ready for 2013. Please take the time to look around our club as we are very proud of what has been achieved. The Buy a Brick campaign is still running and please contact our committee if you are interested in having your name added to the club s history. Also keep in mind we hire the clubhouse out for functions so if you are looking for a venue to hire please contact us. Auskick will be again run at the club for 12 weeks this year. This is aimed at boys or girls from age 5 and up and is a great introduction to AFL. Please contact myself or the club if you know of anyone interested. The senior club has stepped up in 2013 and playing Division 2 in the SEQ league. We greatly encourage our junior players and their families to get down to Panther park on a Saturday afternoon to watch and support our senior teams. A great level of football to be seen with a few of our under 16 premiership players possibly getting a run. Good luck boys! I look forward to meeting with you all and cheering along our boys and girls in 2013! I have never seen the Panther Community as strong as it has been over the past 12 months. I look forward to seeing our club run out in their new jerseys. Jamie Glover Junior President GO THE PANTHERS CALOUNDRA PANTHERS SUNSHINE COAST JUNIOR AFL CLUB OF THE YEAR 2012

Below is a snapshot of the costs associated with running the Caloundra Junior AFL League affiliation fees The League requires each participant in the competition to be registered with the League for a set fee depending on the age group. This fee also includes player insurance. These fees are significant and impact greatly on the club's finances.

CODE OF CONDUCT: PARENTS 1. Remember that children play sport for their enjoyment, not yours. 2. Encourage children to participate do not force participation upon them. 3. Focus on the child s efforts and self esteem rather than whether they win or lose. 4. Encourage children to always participate according to the rules. 5. Never ridicule or yell at a child for making a mistake or for the team losing a game. 6. Remember that children learn best by example applaud the efforts of all players in both teams. 7. Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from sporting activities. 8. Show appreciation of volunteer coaches, officials and administrators, without whom your child could not participate. 9. Respect umpires decisions and teach children to do likewise. 10. Remember that smoking and the consumption of alcohol is unacceptable at junior sport. All parents/guardians upon registration of their child to participate in junior AFL had to sign off on the Parents Codes of Behaviour, this expressing their understanding and adherence to these codes We re not playing for Sheep Stations! CODE OF CONDUCT: PLAYERS 1. Play by the rules 2. Never argue with an official. If you disagree, have your captain, coach or manager approach the official during a break or after the competition. 3. Control your temper. Verbal abuse of officials or other players, deliberately distracting or provoking an opponent is not acceptable or permitted. 4. Work equally hard for yourself and/or your team. Your team s performance will benefit, so will you. 5. Be a good sport. Applaud all good plays whether they be your own team or the opposition. 6. Treat all players as you would like to be treated. Do not interfere with, bully or take unfair advantage of another player. 7. Co-operate with coach, team mates and opponents. Without them there would be no competition. 8. Play for the fun of it, and not just to please parents/guardians and coaches.
