TOM's First AFL Grand final!

Hello Dear Friends,

Tom is in his first Grand Final tomorrow for AFL Football!
His own team and in his own game and in his own age group.

Under 12!

So young, but actually so important.

All of the kids have watched their supported AFL Professional teams in games, finals, brownlow medals and best'n'fairest for so long (possibly ALL of their lives)......this is HUGE!

OUR TEAM has made the Grand Final!

HUGE!

Tom is actually playing after 6 years of Junior Football.

HE IS ACTUALLY PLAYING A FINAL!

BUT.....

My blog is for SO much more.....

We have a coach (X 3 YEARS) , team manager (past and present), runners (x 3 years), trainer/s(x 3 years), ground marshall/s, Interchange Steward, umpire, goal umpire, Committee Members, loving parent supporters etc.......

THANK YOU.

Whether we win the Grand Final or not....
YOU have all been awesome!!!!!!!!

Thank You Dave Kelly, as we know this is your last year.

Thank you for treating our son as your own in training and games.

You know our situation of having an older child with a terminal illness, BUT you treat every child equally.

Fairness in life for everyone is equal.

Tom's skills at his age needs to be measured equally, against everyone else.
We all understand that.

Tomorrow and every game is about skill and game pressure...........

Go Langy Whites, Under 12's for tomorrow at 2:20PM!
