Family violence booted Residents are being urged to join a Riddell District Football League club’s public stand against family violence.

Ahead of a major event on April 17, Macedon Football Club is encouraging people to promise to never turn a blind eye to violence against women and children.

Former Australian of the year and Mount Macedon resident Athol Guy will interview this year’s receiver of the same honour, domestic violence campaigner Rosie Batty, at Macedon’s Jubilee Hall from 7pm.

Ms Batty will also be made the club’s number one ticketholder.

Margaret Singe, of Victoria Police’s Bendigo region family violence unit, will also speak.

Club president Terry Kernan said family violence was a scourge that had to be stopped.

Data released by the Crime Statistics Agency late last month revealed that, on average, more than one family incident was reported in the Macedon Ranges every day in 2014.

A total of 388 family incidents were recorded in the area, compared with 413 in 2013. Only 194 reports were received in 2010. ‘‘Family violence of any kind is absolutely unacceptable,’’ Kernan said. ‘‘We need the community to come with us on this. We have to make sure as a society that it’s never tolerated.’’

Kernan said footballers and netballers had been quick to support the event, part of a broader plan to promote a positive, community-focused culture.

The club is also considering launching a domestic violence education program.

Kernan said players who had never Australia’s No#1-Metro Guest Experience

expressed a particular interest in social justice had been outspoken in their approval of the Jubilee Hall anti-violence event. Money raised will be donated to the Luke Batty Foundation. Tickets, covering a two-course meal and drinks, cost $95.

Macedon Ranges council is also encouraging people to join the conversation about ending family violence.

‘‘

We need the community to come with us - Terry Kernan

’’

A fibreglass artwork, The Elephant in the Room, will be displayed at the football club event and will also be at local libraries from this month. The artwork is on display in Romsey until April 14.

White Ribbon ambassador Cr John Connor urged people to see the work and learn more about the issue. ‘‘All women have the right to safe and respectful relationships and to live free from violence,’’ Cr Connor said. ‘‘Everyone has a role to play in preventing violence against women and developing a culture of respect and equity.’’

The council recently endorsed a statement of commitment for the prevention of violence against women.

Mayor Jennifer Anderson said it was the first commitment of its kind by the council. ‘‘This … sets out how we will work to prevent violence against women and is our local contribution towards achieving the national vision of Australian women and children living free from violence in safe communities,’’ she said.

Smoke-free alfresco gains traction Hume council to ban smoking in the popular O’Shannassy Street dining precinct.

Mr Thornton said while Macedon Ranges council had previously considered a blanket ban on smoking in alfresco areas, its preferred approach was to empower businesses to tackle the problem themselves. ‘‘We are pleased that five businesses have signed up voluntarily and encourage others to do the same,’’ he said. ‘‘Through further promotion and consultation with businesses, we hope that more will see the benefits … for both their staff and their customers.’’

Malmsbury Bakery is among the businesses already signed up for the scheme.

Owner Jan Grant said reaction to the bakery’s smoking ban had been overwhelmingly positive. ‘‘We lost one customer who said if I can’t smoke here I’m leaving, but he hadn’t even ordered a coffee, so I wasn’t too concerned,’’ she said. ‘‘I think people really appreciate the fact they don’t have to worry about someone else’s smoke wafting over.’’

Businesses are being offered help to declare their outdoor dining areas smoke-free as part of a free Macedon Ranges council scheme.

Macedon Ranges council’s assets and operations director Dale Thornton said businesses signing up to the program would receive shop-front signage and promotion, including in newsletters and social media.

Melbourne lord mayor Robert Doyle last week proposed a blanket ban on people lighting up outside the CBD’s restaurants and cafes.

Business owners and health experts in Sunbury are also preparing a proposal urging

Youth jobless gap widens Youth workers are calling for better transport options and more incentives for companies to invest in areas of high unemployment.

The call comes amid fears that many Sunbury young people are falling through a ‘‘chasm’’ in their transition from school to work.

Young people are being urged to enhance their suitability by acquiring vocational education skills, choosing courses carefully.

Victoria ended 2014 with the highest yearly average youth unemployment rate since the 1990s at 14.6 per cent.

On Melbourne’s north-western fringe, including Sunbury, this figure was slightly higher at 14.8 per cent.

Melanie Raymond is chief executive of

We know what to do.

‘‘People get entrenched in a life of low paid, insecure work from early in their life and find it very difficult to break out into better paid work or study.’’

She said it was critical that young people built up motivation, skills and work experience early in life to prevent this trajectory.

Sunbury resident Dylan, 20 (pictured), recently secured casual employment as a labourer after completing programs with Youth Projects. He said the courses helped him gain confidence, employment skills and enthusiasm.

Ms Raymond said with the right support, many young jobseekers were able to ‘‘turn it around’’. She said choosing the right courses could also give them an edge. ‘‘Even one short course builds your resume and sets your application apart from others.’’

Youth Projects, a not-for-profit agency that provides health, employment and training services to young people facing disadvantage, unemployment, homelessness, alcohol and other drug issues.

She said young people were ‘‘falling through a chasm, rather than the cracks’’ in the transition to work.

Ms Raymond said a contraction in the job market in Melbourne’s north and a lack of transport to areas of job vacancy were major problems for Sunbury residents. ‘‘Almost all job growth is in the inner city so, for many young people, they face a long, expensive and complicated commute.’’

Ms Raymond said delayed entry into the job market for early school leavers was also causing lifelong impact through ‘‘wage scarring’’.

Residents should still be given another chance to have their say about whether Sunbury should be split from Hume, the Australian Services Union (ASU) has stated.

As reported by Star Weekly, the council split has been delayed until July 1 next year in order to address costing and service delivery queries.

Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins said too many questions remained unanswered about the separation, which had been scheduled for July 1 this year.

ASU secretary Richard Duffy said more than 7500 people had signed a petition calling for a compulsory vote.

A non-compulsory poll of Hume residents in October 2013 found 60 per cent of people favoured separation. ‘‘Given the information that has come out after the first vote, I think it is only fair to have a second vote,’’ Mr Duffy said. ‘‘Win, lose or draw, we’ll have to stand by the result.’’

Ms Hutchins has not ruled out a compulsory vote, saying she was not going to pre-empt the work of auditors, who are due to report back by the end of this year.

Mr Duffy said union members were extremely pleased the separation would not be ‘‘rushed’’. ‘‘They [members] were extremely worried about where they were going to work, whether they were going to be forced to move.

“There was so much uncertainty, whereas now there is some breathing space,’’ he said. Sunbury Residents Association president Bernie O’Farrell said suggestions there had not been enough consultation were ‘‘hogwash’’ and that a report commissioned by the previous government found the separation was viable. ‘‘The former Liberal government was implementing the wishes of the community, especially in Sunbury,’’ Mr O’Farrell said.

Almost 900 people had voted in a Star Weekly poll on the issue by last Thursday. More than 55 per cent of them said the government should go ahead with the original plan for July 1.

There were 32.7 per cent of respondents who said the decision to delay the split was appropriate, while almost 12 per cent called for the entire plan to be abandoned.

Bring dog stress to heel A Sunbury veterinarian is encouraging dog owners to film their pooches when they are left home alone.

The research could form part of Diane van Rooy’s PhD study into separation anxiety in man’s best friend.

Dr van Rooy said this was a common behavioural disorder in pets that could have a serious affect on both the welfare of the dog and the bond between owner and animal. ‘‘We can guess at what they do while owners are away but video is a great way to show just what some dogs are going through,’’ she said.

Looking for genes involved in the disorder, Dr van Rooy wants to hear from owners willing to fill out a 101-question survey and provide a saliva sample from their dog.

The general questionnaire asks owners to rate the frequency of certain behaviours.

Dr van Rooy was inspired to do her research after noticing separation problems while in general practice. She said many dogs of different breeds and ages showed signs of distress when left alone.

After setting up a camera at her home, Dr van Rooy discovered her own dog, Toby, displayed symptoms while she was away. ‘‘I was horrified,’’ she said. The footage showed her dog remaining completely still and not blinking while looking up at a door for long periods. Other symptoms of separation anxiety can include barking, howling and whining, incontinence and escape attempts.

Dr van Rooy, who has lived in Sunbury for more than 20 years, is halfway through her candidacy at Sydney University.

Research will be compiled over the next 12 months. For more details, phone 0423 087 823 or email diane.vr@sydney.edu.au.

Auxiliary leaves lasting legacy Difficulties finding younger supporters has led to the disbanding of a group that has been raising funds for Kyneton hospital since 1947.

Kyneton District Health (KDH) board president Peter Matthews said, while the closure of the hospital auxiliary marked the end of an era, it was a chance to pursue new ways of fundraising.

He said the hospital would continue to be supported by a growing band of volunteers but the days of organising cake stalls and book sales are over.

The Kyneton hospital auxiliary was the Macedon Ranges’ longest-serving, with other groups in Langley, Spring Hill and Woodend winding up over the years. ‘‘We have this incredible lineage of service and commitment, with members invited into the auxiliary by their neighbours,’’ Mr Matthews said. ‘‘But life doesn’t function that way anymore.’’

Auxiliary member Hazel Gilbert, 92, is among those whose countless efforts have raised money for equipment, and she has knitted dozens upon dozens of woollen animals for the auxiliary to sell.

KDH chief executive Maree Cuddihy said the opening of the new ambulatory care centre, expected mid-year, would be a chance to say thanks. ‘‘We’re looking at a fitting way to mark the transition with one last auxiliary event,’’ Ms Cuddihy said.

For more details about volunteering at Kyneton hospital, phone 5422 9900.

Stadium fundraiser hits a snag

By Matt Crossman A committee that sold thousands of sausages for more than a decade to raise funds for a community-owned stadium has dispersed the money to Sunbury sports organisations.

Sunbury Sports Stadium Group spokesman Graham Innes said the volunteer committee, created in 2001 with the aim of building a stadium for ‘‘fringe’’ sports, was being wound up following the deaths of key members Bill and Evelyn Saul last year.

About $320,000 was donated to 26 Sunbury organisations including choral, calisthenics, lawn tennis and swimming clubs in late March.

Mr Innes said that with three of the remaining committee members aged in their 70s, it was time to move on. ‘‘We’ve been having a hard time trying to get volunteers to man the barracks,’’ Mr Innes said. ‘‘We did a great job raising all that money.

But the rest of us on the committee decided

‘‘

You need … an awful lot just to design and build a - Graham Innes stadium

’’

that we were not going to get enough in our lifetimes to buy land and get the stadium built.’’

Mr Innes said almost all the money was raised during sausage sizzles outside Big W. The committee didn’t just sit on the funds,

sponsoring a series of $1000 scholarships to encourage volunteerism in the mid-2000s.

Mr Innes said the group’s remaining members were proud of their efforts but realised building a stadium required ‘‘big money’’. ‘‘You need to raise an awful lot just to design and build a stadium that will then be able to fund its own operation,’’ he said.

Mr Innes said that while the group’s closure wasn’t the perfect ending, its members were pleased that a large number of organisations would benefit.

Shine a light on autism A blue light will shine on Woodend’s clock tower as part of a worldwide initiative to increase autism awareness.

Shops and public spaces in Gisborne and Romsey will also ‘‘light it up blue’’ as part of April’s Autism Awareness Month.

Autism is a developmental condition that leads to impaired communication and social interactions and restricted behaviour or interest patterns. Blue is the colour associated with autism awareness globally.

Macedon Ranges Autism Network (MRAN) president Fiona Le Nepveu says other Macedon Ranges events will include an expo at the Woodend Community Centre from 3.30-6pm this Thursday and a family day and picnic in Lancefield’s Main Street from noon on April 18.

Seminars featuring expert speakers will be held in Woodend on April 15 and 22.

Gisborne’s Belinda Price, whose twins Samuel and Violet, 3, have autism, says events

such as Autism Awareness Month remind families they are not alone, while MRAN’s services include a Facebook group and informal catch-ups. ‘‘I went to a dinner a few weeks ago and it was like a big weight was lifted off my shoulders – just being around people who know what you can go through,” she said. ‘‘You can feel really alone and confused … it’s been an amazing support for me.’’

While autism leads to challenges such as sensory overloads and meltdowns, Ms Price says it has taught her to approach life differently. ‘‘When you find a way to teach them something new or get them to do things like get dressed, you do get a good feeling.’’

For more details on awareness month activities, phone 0414 891 107 or email fiona@ lenepveu.com.

Brakes on homelessness Gabrielle Cornish’s trusty old Peugeot has long helped her get from A to B. It also played a crucial role in the Gisborne nurse’s efforts to complete her re-entry training.

And two of Ms Cornish’s sons learnt to drive behind the wheel of the white hatch, affectionately known by the family as ‘‘Easy Dee’’.

Now, the car will help raise funds for youth homelessness prevention charity Kids Under Cover.

Ms Cornish says she decided to donate the car to the organisation after nursing a friend through the last stages of cancer. Her friend left her own car to the family in her will as a way of saying thanks. ‘‘Because we were given another car, Easy

Dee was just sitting there,’’ Ms Cornish says. ‘‘It was time to give her another home. ‘‘I thought of my children and how lucky they are. It’s time to do something good.’’

Kids Under Cover runs Donate Your Car, a free alternative to selling or trading in an unwanted vehicle. Money raised helps build relocatable studios for young people to live in while they are in a carer’s home.

Chief executive Jo Swift says for every dollar invested in the work of Kids Under Cover, $3.30 on average is saved in health and justice costs. ‘‘And most importantly, a young person is no longer at risk of becoming homeless and is now living in secure and stable accommodation.’’

The company behind Hanging Rock concerts says it’s too early to say who will perform at the venue next summer.

Following the success of last month’s Rod Stewart concert, a Frontier Touring spokesman said new dates would be announced later this year. Frontier is two years into a five-year deal to hold up to four concerts a year at Hanging Rock. A total of 64 per cent of the 10,000-plus people at the March 28 Rod Steward concert came from Melbourne, with eight per cent coming from interstate or overseas.

Crash motorcyclist to be charged

A motorcyclist will be charged on summons after allegedly leading police on a high-speed pursuit in Kyneton.

The Mansfield man, 21, was taken to a Melbourne hospital with non-life threatening injuries after crashing at the intersection of Edgecombe and Beauchamp streets about 8.30am last Tuesday. The man was detected travelling at more than 160km/h north of Kyneton on the Heathcote-Kyneton Road. A police pursuit was abandoned because of high speed. Another police officer spotted the speeding motorcycle closer to Kyneton. Police said the motorcycle collided with a traffic island and the rider ran from the scene. He was arrested a short time later.

Club bowled over

Gisborne Bowling Club’s new green will allow year-round bowling, once the $375,000 project, funded by the club and state government with support from Macedon Ranges council, is complete.

WHAT IS PAIN?

BHSc (Hons), DPT Physiotherapist, Sunbury Physiotherapy Clinic

What is Pain?

Pain is by far the most common reason for people to visit a physiotherapist. But what is pain, really? Thanks to new technology, there has been a massive growth in the understanding of pain in the past 20 years. Many of us learned in school that pain is caused by injury, inflammation, or disease, and that nerves send this information to the brain for us to feel. Unfortunately, we now know that’s not quite accurate, and the medical and scientific communities are shifting away from this definition of pain.

The clinic recently introduced occupational therapy (including home visits) and dietetics to the range of services at its Sunbury practice.

Physiotherapy services are complemented by a proficient allied health team, including remedial massage therapists, podiatry and clinical pilates.

Services cover the management of falls and dizziness, hand therapy (including comprehensive management of all hand and finger injuries), custom fabrication of splints, assessment and management of all spinal, sports, motor vehicle and work injuries, as well as treatments for sprains and strains, fractures, arthritis, rehabilitation after surgery and aquatic physiotherapy or hydrotherapy.

We now know that there are no nerves that carry “pain” signals from the body to the brain. The only messages that nerves in the body are capable of sending to the brain are data on temperature, pressure, and chemicals in the body area they monitor. An injury does cause changes in the body, which are picked up by the nerves, but this does not automatically create “pain.”

Physiotherapist and dietician Jace van der Westhuizen adopts a holistic approach to nutrition, exercise and well-being.

Jace has several years of experience in the nutrition and fitness industry and can assist with weight control, fat loss and muscle mass gains. His particular interests are nutrition for heart disease, abnormal blood cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity treatments.

Director Justine Barrow says physiotherapists at the Sunbury clinic focus not only on treating injuries, but on optimising health, well-being and performance, and providing strategies to assist in preventing an injury from reoccurring.

Signals from the body reach the brain, and the brain processes this information along with everything else going on such as past experience, thoughts, feelings etc. We now know that we will only experience “pain” if the subconscious brain believes the body is under threat. If a person is distracted or believes an injury is minor, they will generally feel less pain. It is also possible for minor injuries to feel disproportionately painful, or for pain to last well beyond the healing of an injury if, for example, negative thoughts or experiences are associated with the pain.

“We use only the most up-to-date techniques which have been proven by research. Sunbury Physiotherapy Clinic became a quality-endorsed practice in 1995. We have a dedicated, experienced and empathetic team of physiotherapists, many whom have achieved post-graduate qualifications in sports and musculoskeletal physiotherapy.”

More consulting sessions are now available Tuesday to Friday at Gisborne Medical Centre.

Sunbury Physiotherapy Clinic offers direct claims to health insurance benefits via HICAPS. Doctors referrals are not necessary.

While this all sounds confusing, there is a bright side to this information: it allows physiotherapists and other health professionals to treat not only the injury, but also to apply and teach methods to “turn down the volume” on pain experiences. These interventions have been shown to be particularly effective in persistent pain as well as conditions such as chronic back and neck pain, whiplash, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Elevated rural views from nearly every room are just the start of the appeal on offer here, an owner-built house of about 30 squares on a block of about 1880 square metres. It has three living zones, the first near the front door a vast grey-carpeted space with wood heater and balcony access; a separate rumpus room; and a large kitchen-meals area with grey gum floorboards. A big walk-in pantry, dishwasher, underbench oven and electric cooktop equip the cooks’ domain. Of the four big bedrooms, the main has twin fitted wardrobes and an en suite with spa. The enormous backyard has a basketball practice court. Gas heating, split-system, underhouse storage area and remote-controlled double garage are other perks at this built-to-last property.

On a garden oasis of about 4000 square metres, this Victorian-style residence of about 30 squares has a good integration with the outdoor area, and three living zones – separate rumpus room, a lounge-dining room, and a family-meals area around the kitchen – which makes it comfortable in support of separate downtime for family members. Under a vaulted ceiling with clerestory windows, the kitchen has a stack of blackwood cupboards (including leadlight overheads), timber benchtops, wall oven and electric cooktop. Each of the three bedrooms has built-in wardrobes, the main also has an en suite. A Laserlite-clad pergola above paving has a private aspect and takes in views of well-established gardens; verandahs provide other spots to sit and relax. The property also has a split-system, wood heater and double garage and is tenanted at $1516 a month.

Real Estate Today Downsizing Times are Here The residential market is strong, some say even surging ahead, so what better time to downsize. Children are gone, the nest is empty and wider horizons beckon. Whether your interest lies in trees or seas, the inner city or a return to your country roots, now is a good time to consider that change of pace or of environment that we all yearn for. Demand is high now for ‘family homes’ in good locations and with access to all the facilities that we need with a growing family. Interest rates are at an historic low and even if that trend changes in time, one has to look at the current situation and take advantage of current market conditions. Downsizing doesn’t mean disappearing into the wilderness or out of your family’s life, but rather finding a new home that suits your current needs in accommodation, social environment,

It’s this type of house that makes Trentham a tree-changer’s area with enormous appeal – its Art Deco charm and garden oasis just fit hand-in-glove with the town’s great lifestyle.

Recently made over into a contemporary delight, it nevertheless retains high ceilings, deep skirts, stepped and decorative cornices, picture rails and gorgeous ornate plaster ceilings – and an ambience money can’t buy. Designer lightfittings, double glazing and french doors are part of the new fitout. Three bedrooms, two with wardrobes, share a bathroom that taps into the period style. Separate lounge (wood heater) and dining rooms are wonderful, light-filled spaces, while the kitchen-meals zone has a beautifully executed modern-country feel: panelled cabinetry, timber benchtops, subway-laid splashback tiles and extra-wide stainless-steel cooker. Within a stroll of main street shops and eateries, the house, on about 1700 square metres, also has a water tank, garden shed, a lovely verandah and gardens to lose oneself in.

On an elevated block of about 1500 square metres, this beautifully presented house has a floor plan geared towards easy family interaction, while still providing spots for adult retreat when needed.

Spacious, flowing rooms have a decor of soft-sandstone walls, white accents and feature walls in a soft olive and gunmetal grey, set off by a mix of soft-latte curtains and timber blinds.

Side entry is into a tiled foyer with a display niche, to the left of which is an open, carpeted lounge room. Ahead of the foyer comes the L-shaped, tiled living hub with an adjoining open (carpeted) study,

An in-wall slider in the family room opens to a tiled hallway along which are a walk-in storage closet, laundry, two bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, and the main bathroom, where the tub sits in a corner window.

Through double doors at the back, there’s the large main bedroom, which has a door to the backyard, a three-door wardrobe and an open en suite.

The big, gabled pergola at the side is a fantastic entertainment/relaxation space; it has a wood heater and a rustic bar (tagged the “Beer ‘n’ Bullshit” bar) made from corrugated iron and rough-hewn timber.

This area links perfectly with the fenced, in-ground saltwater pool, edged with paving. Decorative grasses and agapanthus planted in riverstones add greenery to the area.

The lower backyard section is home to

boxed vegie gardens, landscaped areas and a water tank with pump. The upper fenced-off section is a broad expanse of grass, with a garden shed-cum chook palace tucked away in a corner. This area has potential to unleash the imagination but, as is, serves as a great spot to kick the footy around.

Close to a walking track along the nearby creek, the property also has gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, side-gate access for boat or caravan, and a double garage.

GET YOUR GARDEN READY FOR SALE Being outside is widely accepted as being good fo f r your health, so it fo f llows that a one of the first things people will grav at a itat av a e towards in a property is the at backy k ard. If you’re one of many people blessed with even a small pat ky a ch off at green grass, putt t ing that tt a space to its best use with landscaping can significantlyy at increase the like k lihood of a good sale. Here ke r are a fe re f w tips to get your garden in ship sale shape. Tidy and clean- The first step toward making your garden look like k a lush oasis is to get it spick and span. This means throwing out anyy ke old toys, rubbish or gardening waste. Wa W shing down fe f nces and the driveway ay ay with a high pressure hose will also make k a world of diffffffe ke ference. Basic tasks like k ke weeding garden beds and using an edging tool along pat a hs can make at k an untidyy ke space look much fr f esherr. Law a ning it overaw r Tu rT rf r Australia has fo f und that a 73 perr at cent of buyers want a law a n primarily as a safe aw f play fe a ing area fo ay f r their children,, and the maj a ority of people want a law aj a n to be at aw a least 30 per cent of the total size of the home.Low maintenance is best- Befo f re you start hacking aw fo a ay a at a the hydrangeas, check with your re r al estat a e agent. They’ll be able to tell you at what a people in the area are looking fo at f r in the are r a and what re a landscaping at however small - will add the most value. Casting the net wide is oft f en a good ft strat a egy - not everyone will want a high-maintenance garden, but it’s easier to at add to an existing plot than to re r do the entire thing.Add some basic shrubberyy and some colourf rffuul potttted flo owerss.

Charm, Character, outstanding location!

is. The Macedon Ranges show the best of Autumn colour with the wonderful rich reds, yellows, orange and deep burgundy. Autumn is, I think my favourite season, crisp mornings with just a hint of frost in the air and clear sunny days. Easter arrived very early this air, year and as families gathered together to celebrate Easter Sunday, Autumn provided the perfect time for garden Easter egg hunts, outdoor games for the children or a quiet nap for those of us who are just a little older. older Autumn is also the time when we start thinking about lighting the fire or turning on the gas heating. Take the opportunity before winter starts to clean chimneys and flues, have gas heaters serviced and ducts checked. Autumn is also the time when those beautiful leaves fall, do not waste them, they will turn into great mulch either spread straight on the garden or in the compost bin. At the risk of being very boring, this is also the season to clean gutters- leaves and debris collected through Summer and Autumn must be removed before Winter rain. I hope you all had a safe and happy Easter and can take the time to

SPORT Juniors’ records tumble

By Tara Murray Lancefield-Romsey’s Nysa Miles and Sunbury Little Athletics’ Melvin Monleh were among the standout performers at the Victorian Little Athletics state track and field championships last month.

Monleh will head to Perth as part of the Victorian under-13 squad for the Australian Little Athletics championships later this month after winning four gold medals at the state championships over the last weekend of March.

He won the under-13 100 metres, 200 metres, 400 metres and long jump.

In each event he broke the Little Athletics state record, including the 100 metres standard set by his Sunbury teammate, Junior Mabia, last year. Mabia, fresh from his Australian title in the under-15 100 metres,

finished with a gold and silver in the under-14 age group at the state titles. He was beaten in his pet event, the 100 metres, settling for second, while he won the 200 metres.

Cody Rodwell had success in the under-14 field events, winning three medals.

He finished second in the under-14 javelin and third in the long jump and high jump.

Bella Peterson and Chelsea Young both came away with medals as well, Peterson finishing third in the under-11 100 metres and third in the 70 metres, while Young won bronze in the under-14 high jump.

Sebastien Bell-Bartels, Declan Berne, Byron Lynch, Pucho Paye, Zachary Stevens, Ashlea Thies and Maddison Vowles also represented Sunbury.

Nysa Miles was one of six athletes to represent Lancefield-Romsey at the state

titles. She picked up a silver and a bronze medal in the under-9 girls age group.

In the 800 metres final, Miles topped her personal best by 17 seconds to finish second.

On day two of the championships, she won bronze in the 400 metres.

Joshua Emonson won bronze in the under-13 boys 300 metre hurdles. He also made the finals of the triple jump and high jump and finished 13th in the 100 metres.

Lilly Bromley finished 13th in the under-11 60 metres hurdles after finishing seventh in her heat, while Zach Squire was 14th in the under-14 boys 300 metres hurdles.

Jonah Emonson finished 12th in the under-11 80 metres hurdles, 11th in the 60 metres hurdles and 10th in the javelin, with Noah Emonson jumping a personal best in the under-11 triple jump.

United regrouping after two defeats Sunbury United is hoping to have a full side on the park after the Easter break as it looks to open its account in the FFV state league 1 north-west season.

United has started the year with two losses and coach Greg Czapnik says the club has been hurt because several first 11 players were out.

“On Saturday, we were missing four of our first 11 and we knew we would be up against a physical team,” Czapnik said.

“We were leaner and weaker against a bigger North Sunshine Eagles unit.

“They came out to play and were determined to beat us as, when we were promoted last time, it was over them.”

Czapnik said that despite being undermanned, his side was punished for not taking opportunities in both opening games.

“Against Keilor, we dominated. They scored one really good goal and the second was a really scrappy one.

“We had six or seven chances and got punished for not taking them.

“Against North Sunshine Eagles, we didn’t turn up in the first half. We tried but looked slow and, before we knew it, we were 3-0 down after making silly, basic mistakes.

“We had a chat at half-time and changed our structures and then had four really good chances while they didn’t create anything.

They managed to score a goal virtually the last kick of the game.”

It’s a new-look side for United this season with most of last year’s team no longer there.

“Only four guys are still here, with seven new guys making a brand new team, but we have a little more depth than last year.

“Most of the players who left have gone to high-level soccer, which is a good thing.”

Czapnik says the aim is to improve on last season when the club was in a fight against its relegation up until the final round.

“Improvement is the main goal and we don’t want to be in the same position as last year in the relegation battle.

“I get measured by results. We’ve had a fantastic pre-season and it’s one of the best we’ve had in the five years at the club.”

United will play Altona East Phoenix on Saturday at Paisley Park.

Uniformly neat, snazzy at Rupo Rupertswood’s junior footballers will soon look like their senior teammates, at least in apparel, with the club’s junior arm getting new uniforms.

The juniors will receive the new uniforms at a club family fun day on Sunday.

The new jumpers and colour scheme bring the juniors in line with the senior teams. Twelve junior sides will take to the park for the club this season.

It won’t just be the junior footballers launching their season on Sunday, with the club’s junior netballers starting their season, too.

Alongside the four senior netball sides, five junior netball teams take to the court this season with the under-13s and under-15s looking to continue their unbeaten streaks of last year.

The family fun day will feature intra-club footy practice matches, netball inter-league tryouts and training, a jumping castle, a magician and live music.

Manser bowls way to medal Peter Manser’s immediate impact on the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s McIntyre Cup competition was rewarded when he was named Ken Sullivan medallist as best player in the competition on Wednesday night.

The Woodend bowler, who crossed from Premier Cricket side Greenvale Kangaroos for the season, won the medal with 18 votes, one vote ahead of Romsey allrounder Chris Burkett.

Manser took 47 wickets for the season and averaged 33 with the bat. He and Burkett, who took out the bowling and batting awards respectively, were front runners for the medal most of the night.

After six rounds, Burkett led with 12 votes, Manser second on 10. Manser hit the lead in round eight and was joined

by Gisborne’s Jarryd Vernon on 15 votes in round 12. Burkett was a vote further back.

One vote to Vernon in round 13 saw him take the outright lead with a round to go. Manser and Burkett were awarded three votes each in the last match of the season to overtake Vernon, who didn’t poll.

Vernon, Manser and Burkett were all named in the team of the year. All eight clubs were represented in the team, with Sunbury United premiership captain James Hughes named captain. The others were Gisborne’s Simon Harman, Bacchus Marsh’s Peter Lalor, Sunbury’s Jacob Brewer and Jason McGann, Sunbury United’s Ryan Billinghurst and Lance Watts, Wallan’s Todd Keenan and Riddell’s Matthew Livingstone.

The Tigers finished seventh with six wins in their first year back in the competition last year after a season off due to lack of players.

Club president Rob Waters said it had been a lot easier this pre-season.

“It feels more settled as we were rushing around last season,” Waters said. “Now that we are a year back into it, we’re starting to feel like a normal club again.”

While not a big player in off-season recruiting, Kyneton has snared enough big

names to have everyone talking. Former AFL rookie-listed brothers Rhys and Alik Magin will boost the Tigers’ midfield strength.

Alik played eight games for Gold Coast, while Rhys was on Essendon’s list in 2008-09.

Alik won Bendigo Gold’s best and fairest award in the VFL last year, while Rhys makes the move across from Essendon District Football League club Avondale Heights.

Both played with gun midfielder/forward Ben Weightman in Queensland as juniors.

“It’s great to have them on board and they are good young boys,” Waters said.

Mitchell Scholard, from Whittlesea, also played junior football with the Magins and Weightman in Queensland. He’s a centre half forward who will present a target.

“Joel Morrison from the RDFL [Riddell District Football League] is another keyposition player,” Waters said.

The president hopes Scholard and Morrison will take some pressure off Weightman, who kicked 64 goals last season.

Another boost to the Tigers is the return to fitness of captain Michael Rainey.

“He played only a couple of games last year; he’s like a new recruit,” Waters said.

Luke Edmondson, Dale Ciunik, Mick Clancy and Kane Ranstead are among those who have left the club in the off-season.

Waters said he wasn’t big on pre-season predictions.

“I think we will be a bit better this season than last year. We want to improve on what we did then.”

The Tigers kicked off the season on Good Friday against arch-rival Gisborne.

Results weren’t available at the time of going to print.

Basketball tourist Jets in

By Tara Murray Sunbury Jets’ Kelsey Sigl has found the transition to playing basketball in Australia an easy one.

The American, who has played in France and Chile, joined the Jets weeks before the season started as the club’s first female import.

“It’s been an easy transition and everyone has been very accommodating to me,” Sigl said. “This club is close-knit and it reminds me of home. I’m from the north-west, which is very family-oriented.

“For the most part, it’s been a smooth transition.”

Like many Americans, Sigl had always wanted to come to Australia.

“Initially, out of college I wanted to come to Australia, but I found a club in France and I then transitioned over to Chile. My agent last fall came up with an offer of a job out here and I said I’d always wanted to come and had dreamt of coming to Australia.

“I thought it would be a better way to do it, to play the sport I love.

“For me it’s about the experience and learning [about] new cultures and being able to travel the world and play basketball at the same time. “ Sigl said the Jets were learning to gel together as a team. Her own contribution has been to average 20 points and nine rebounds in her first three games.

“It’s about the experience and trying to help Sunbury get back up the ladder.

“I know they were on the bottom last year and it’s kind of a rebuilding experience for us and I’m here to help in every way possible.

“So far, it’s been really good. When we played against Keilor, it was really positive and everyone played well “I think we’re still getting used to playing with each other and finding those

adjustments. There’s more [team] structures here compared to France and Chile. “We maybe only had three, total, in each place. In college, we were running anywhere from 70 plays and 10-out-of-bounds plays.”

Sigl will look to pass her experience on to

younger players at the club through clinics.

“In college, we did it [clinics] all summer long. In France, we went to clinics, but it was a lot different as I couldn’t interact with the kids the way I can here because of the language barrier,” she said.

“Any way I can give back to the community, I will take that opportunity.

“I’ve only done one clinic so far and they have been receptive,” Sigl said.

The Jets have one win from three games leading into the Easter break.

Tigers’ coach a familiar face the finals, are coming back. “Jess [Seddon] has decided to take a year off and will be my assistant coach, while Nikita Block won’t be back either,” Plowman said.

“We’ve managed to get a player back from overseas, who will step into the side, while a couple of players will step up.”

Emma Webb, joint winner of the league’s best and fairest award, will again be prominent.

Plowman says the side is in much better shape than at the end of last season.

The Tigers finished third before losing both finals games. “Definitely towards the end of the year there was a lot of burnout … it was a bit of a mess and the A-reserve girls had to fill in,” Plowman recalls. “We’re looking much better injury-wise.”

The Tigers’ first game was on Good Friday against Gisborne.

Karlie Plowman has had just two weeks to settle into her role as coach of the Kyneton A-grade netball team.

Last year’s coach, Dean Erdman, was set to take on the role again for the Bendigo Netball League club before other commitments forced him to take a break.

Winning B-grade coach Jolanta Bennie was then going to step into the role before deciding she had to focus on her family.

That’s when Plowman, a long-time Tigers player, put her hat in the ring.

“I got the itch to come back,” she said. “It’s been pretty good so far. I’ve been at the club a long time and I know the girls really well.”

Plowman played all her junior netball at Kyneton before playing and coaching with a number of different teams before her return.

But she’s unlikely to take to the court much after hurting her back in the pre-season.

Most of last season’s players, who made
