UNDER 10 Round 2 of the season and the Yea Tiger Cubs hosted the Seymour Lions at home. Two teams were played with the coaches Tim and John giving great advice as they went along. Lachlan showed great defensive skills at the goals, with marking a few attempted goals by Seymour and kicking them back towards the centre. Sienna tapped out in the centre, giving Sophie opportunity to forward the ball onto Ivy, with great team playing on the ground, this lead to Sophie following up and kicking a goal. Jack was a strong force on the field handballing to Max who kicked to Tander who then brought it home for a goal. Both Eamon and Jack where awarded with free kicks. Both teams showed great team spirit, and fun was had by all. Awards: Country Fried Chicken award - S. Butterworth, Tiger Bucks - L. Henwood, Royal Mail Hotel award - C. Klinge. - Belinda Johnston ★ UNDER 12 Coming off their huge win last weekend the Under 12s came into the game with confidence against the Seymour Lions. With only a few players from the 2018 team playing for the Tigers it was an almost mirror image result from Round 2 last year. Tigers held their own for the first quarter scoring 1.1 (7) to Seymour's two goals. The second was alot quieter on the scoreboard for Yea with only one registered shot to Seymour's six. The third was the most even of all the four quarters with both sides tallying two goals one point. The last saw the same level of even play and equal ball time although the Lions were able convert it to two more goals. Coach Papa has some areas to work on with the squad that will hopefully make the outcome different next time the two sides meet. Goalkickers: M. McAlpin, J. Porter, C. Sier Final Scores: Seymour 8.5 (53) def. Yea 3.3 (21) Awards: Royal Mail Hotel award - S. Holdsworth-Rose, Country Fried Chicken award - S. Gregory, Tiger Bucks - A. Antrobus - Deb Schickerling ★ UNDER 14 On home soil Dominik Ciantar (Captain) and Lucas Zipsin (Vice-Captain) lead their team onto the field to face the Seymour Lions. From the first bounce the Yea Tigers showed great pressure in the forward line which lead to the first goal being kicked by Dominik. Tom was very hands on with his excellent ball skills leading Riley to kick another goal in the first quarter. Stephen was a strong presence in the back line which pushed the ball forward to Riley who played onto Bradley passing to Jack which resulted in another goal being kicked. At no point did the Tigers tire, achieving 10 goals overall. This result is from strong determination by all the players, and working together as a team. Goal kickers: R. Frankcombe, C. Klinge, D. Ciantar, L. Zipsin, S. Crumpen-Dolheguy, M. Lawson and J. Harrison - well done boys Final Scores: Yea 10.8 (68) def. Seymour 1.1 (7) Awards: M.Lawson, D. Ciantar , R. Frankcombe - Belinda Johnston
