On Sunday May 22nd, the annual WorkSafe AFL North East Border Junior Carnival was again conducted in Wangaratta.
The 4 competing leagues, Albury Wodonga, Wangaratta, Tallangatta and Seymour Junior Football
Leagues accompanied teams from the Benalla/Mansfield area and competed in both under 14 and
under 16's. In total, 14 teams played 20 games and provided representative opportunities for 380
young boys and 10 male and female umpires.
Adding to the experience again this year, an under Final Series was played as opposed to the Round
Robin series of previous seasons with Albury Wodonga JFL ultimately successful in an enthralling battle with Benalla/Mansfield during the Under 14’s match. It was AWJFL again who finished on top in the under 16's with Albury Red defeating Albury Red in the decider.
Aiden Johnson, under 16's and Ryley Bouker under 14's from Albury Wodonga and Wangaratta Junior Football Leagues respectively were awarded Players of the Carnivals.
Accompanying the 400 participants was an estimated 2,000 spectators comprising of parents, siblings and recruiters identifying the best local talent for pathway programs.
Organisers were again delighted with the manner in which the Carnival was supported, the conduct of
players, their team management and coaches as well as spectators. Planning for 2017 will begin
shortly with leagues contributing to the annual review where suggested inclusions are submitted for
consideration.
