Peter is a brave man for putting his hand up to serve as Junior League President, which can be a challenging post for most of us. We wish you all the best in your new role.

Congratulations to the Clubs who proposed the no confidence motion, Wayne Madden must have known the writing was on the wall as he never bothered to turn up to last nights Junior League Meeting.

There is still some deadwood that needs to be cleaned out at the Cronulla Junior League with Mrs popular, Marie Withers high on the list.

Marie Withers has successfully alienated most of the families, players and administration officials for years. Marie must be wondering when her time is up as the sooner she has no more responsibilities at the Junior League the better for all of us, only then can we get out of the stone age we have been in since this administration began.

De La v Engadine (U17A's) De La v Sutherland (U17B's)

Sutherland were to good in the B's for De La running out winning 10 - 0 in a game full of mistakes by both teams. The difference in the 2 teams was Sutho' were keen to be there.

In the next game at Captain Cook Oval, the De La 17A's are coming good at the end of the season defeating a lackluster Engadine outfit who didn't play anywhere near to where they are capable of playing, De La won 33 - 6 which include a double to De La Skipper Reece Davidson

Across the road at Endeavour Fields, Gymea u17A's held a mighty 24 - 0 half time lead only to see it slip away in the 2nd half with the Sharks scoring 24 unanswered points to tie the game.

With the Finals kicking off next weekend, the comp is as open as it has been for years with all 4 teams in the A's and in the B's capable of winning the big one.

Good luck to all teams in all grades for the finals

CHECK OUT THE FUN

There was not a spare seat as the Cronulla Sharks celebrated a wonderful Junior Reps season.The large audience was well entertain by Mr Rob Willis, with a wealth of knowledge of local football introduced this years Harold Matthew & SG Ball Cup presentations and winners.

Luke PICKERD was selected by SG Ball coach Mr. Dave Howlett and staff and the Junior Rep player of the Year.

Future Sharks NRL coach Flannagan raced from NSW State of Origin training to support and present this Prestigious award to Luke along with 2009 winner Chad Townsend who has been ripping it up with the Sharks Toyota Cup side.

Other winner on the night were :

SG Ball Players player : Luke PICKERD
SG BAll Coaches Award : Joel TUBBS

Harold Matthews Cup Coaches Award : David Tavita
Harold Matthews Cup Players Award : Jason Gray

The weekends of 29/5-30/5 & 5/6-6/6 have seen no footy played due to the weather and the state of the grounds.

In its wisdom the junior league has scheduled an A grade match (Jack Gibson Cup) and a couple of 21s games for Saturday 12 June. As such, no other games are to be played on the long weekend.

This is unbelievable.

As well as hitting every player with a $20 levy this year they are also restricting the number of games that the kids are able to play.

They don't schedule any games on the middle weekends of the school holidays for the juniors and don't seem to care if the number of games played are reduced.

Maybe it's time for the junior league to have a major overhaul and get people involved who have the best interest of rugby league and the kids that play the game at heart
