The second last weekend of footy for the year, and it’s a massive day on Sunday. Our Mens Division Two team is playing their Grand Final; while Platinum & Plat Reserves are playing Preliminary Finals.
If you possibly can, please come! We’re playing for a premiership, and a large, vocal crowd of Bombers cheering our team on will go a long way towards getting the premiership cup back to Gore Hill. We need to hear you!!!

We have catering rights for the finals at Blacktown this weekend. There are 4 Grand Finals on Saturday and another 4 on Sunday, and this is a big opportunity to raise much-needed funds for North Shore.
