If these games weren't enough entertainment, we had plenty of interest in the 2nd Norths Touch Dash for Cash sponsored by Peak Sports. The first off the blocks were the boys in the Men's Race. Congratulations to Alex Nicholls from Purple Cobras who got over the line just in front of Jamie Chan from Harrison & Gill. The Women's Race was won by Sally Kierath from Like A Tiger with a close second to Sally Meagher from Happy Days. Thanks to Peak Sports both winners received an online voucher to spend at www.peaksports.com.au up to the value of $100!

 

Throughout the season, referees have been voting for B&F players from each game. Thanks to Inferno Sports we have 3 winners to congratulate on their season efforts:
Women's: Stephanie MacGougan (Monte) 5 votes
Mixed: Lauren Shore (Franks & Beans) 5 votes
Men's: Conor Nix (Dirtymike&daboyz) 5 votes

 

Thanks to the Great Northern Hotel for all of their support in 2011. We hope you have enjoyed their monthly specials and great service.
