ms to all, and welcome to I Greetings a l - .- footy . 4 newies and 6 another ye~_ of `oldies face the in what appears to be a very even line up . in saying that, my information has been a tad threadbare, as no involvement at club level this year fmds me feeling like a shag on a rock :'_s usual, I shall have a look at each club and their prospects for the year . And it would be remiss of me not to contact those mo-curling satchel siv: nf :-s to fuid out what the punters think . the 2001 C Section Premiers come up ag in this year in the hope that they can stay longer than their last soujourn . Coach Norm Goss saddles up again, and will be using last year's excellent season of 14-4 (Is) and 16-2 (2s), as a solid foundation for 2002 . A big year is expected from Boss James Reserve . Mazenod - on face value, 3? wins and relegation from the higher grade in 2001 appears to be a season of disappct `ment . However, the residents at Central Res € r . ,- by the coaching guru of the VA-FA in .were much more competitive me good A Section scalps in the pre-4 . laiches indicate that this inch are clearly ° o ;c to beat . NOBs - although 2001 would appear to a disappointing year after the promise shown in 2000, they weren't that far off the mark and big things are in store for the Brunswick boys . A totally new coaching structure is in place, headed by ex St . Bernards coach in Garry Foulds, and some promising recruits indicate that the 2001 pre-season flag favourites are a big chance this year . Old Brighton - it c of the 2 A Section relegants in 2001 r i to the section they dominated in 2 C-1 ' . s is another club that has and with the tearn undergone coa,', -,; headed up erieneed Stuart Glascott, one ean ,_1 -_- . t, four finish for our beachsid e residents .

'babies' of B Section find themselves in unzamiliar territory. Having not been this hi` 3, president John Newbold has ordered oxygen masks for all at the club!! Chris Bye will front up again and will be looking to consolidate in this section, as we have all seen how tough the higher sections can be . Old Haileybury - one of the semi finalists from Old Es

2001, OH will b selokingt2sp further this year. Mick Dwyer is having another go

this year and will be hell bent on keeping t} improvement curve going upwards . A top 2 fffii,~ is not out of the question . '°° ~lburnia .rns - with a more quieter pr se >n than the one before, the 2001 Prelimina Finalists will be wanting to erase tl disappointment of an opportunity to return to Section . Erwin Leyden has been busy in the ( season, landing some good recruits, and whc one combines their good practice match forr OMs could be in for a good year . Old Paradians - Matt Ryan dusts off his coact, board again and will be looking to gain son consistency from his charges who claimed son big scalps in 2001, but also lost to some of tl lower teatns . In saying that, the dogs are barldi about our north-eastern residents, they are a b street corner tip for 2002 . _- this proud club staved off tl re - rtion ,elves to remain in B Section in 200 Ne, coach Mick Knuppel and his crew have be( win king overtime to recruit and return to Section . Great efforts by the 2s and U19s shc that there should be enough depth to be mo than competitive this year.

Therry - another club to survive by the skin their teeth last year, but with a bit more lue could have won enough of the close ones to figu in the finals action . Wayne Harmes h~ restructured his coaching panel, and they' targeted youth to push forward their claims f finals. Won't be far away . TIPS I'm either a genius or a mug with tipping in Rd Most of you would think I would be the latter. I' going to buy shares this week in co npanies . . . . . . . mod (1/4) host NOBs (13/4) at the wi, e=_panses of Central Reserve . The guru and I lads will pack too many guns on the day f NOBs' new coach Garry Foulds . Mazenod t strong at home by 21 pts .

momentum, and they'll erase the of 2 awful beltings suffered at the Jr, in 2000 when they prevail by 14 pts . in E . E . Gunn bears witness to (1) locking horns with t3lsi? (1/5) . Pre-season form and som e ~,cloE~r-'-' 1 : ups will ensure OMs get off to a good â&#x20AC;&#x17E; ii w-y account comfortably for the local s in your local service station! ! :u :e aloooooaong trip down to th,_ home of I i , e other B Section debutante in 2002 i .pton -Zovers (1!2) roll out the red carpet

hael Ford (Old Melburnians), Wayn e es (Old Scotch), Dale McCann (Old Paradians) , , ard Dunn (Old Trinity) . Nick Bourke (Old ;ians), Grant Williams (U . Blues) and Garry Qul__ (St Bernards OC). D Section scribe Peter Kelly asked club correspondents to nominate the season's final four . INine clubs nominated Beaumaris to finish on top . Aquinas and Parkdale showed their confidence by picking themselves for top spot . Actually no other club picked them to make the final faur . The votes as cast were Beaumaris (12) . Old Geelong (8), Caulfield, Whitefriars (7), Old Essendon, St Johns (4), Old Camberwell (3), Salesian (2) and Aquinas, Parkside (1) . (At the end of the season, the final four was Old Geelong (15/3), Beaumaris (14J4), Whitefriars (13/5) and the bolter Parkside ( 1018), and the premiers were Beaumaris who defeated Old Geelong in the grand final .

The cover for issue 1 was taken from 1996's Grand Final and featured Michael Holmes (Old Xaverians) from behind, punching the ball away as Brock I?ooney (Collegians) attempted a mark . There were 1892 new registrations to Round 1, made up of 1054 seniors and 838 under 19 . A round of applause, please, to the hard working Permit Committee who contributed as their predecessors had for many years . Total registrations numbered 8778 . The launch of the season was held at the Carlton Crest . 'Age' writer and author Martin Flanagan gave a stimulating and entertaining speech, and 'Percy and Dicky' were great entertainment .

Xaverians Old unfurled the flag at Toorak Park and then did a real 'demolition job' on St Sernards . Old Xaverians kicked 10 .12 to 0.0 in the first quarter, and then went on to win 26 .10 to 7.2 . (Can any reader recall a quarter of senior section football where one team has kicked 72 points more than the other team?). in `B' Ivanhoe and Old Ivanhoe staged their traditional tight contest . 'Olds' were a goal ahead at the last change, 11 .11 to 10 .11, but then ran away in the-last to win 16 .13 too 11 .16 . It was a big result for 'Olds' as they trailed by 15 points at half time . Best were Kent, Tully, Donaldon (Old I .) and Bulleen, Brown, Williams (Ivan . ) 10 YEARS AGO - 1992 Celebrations. The Centenary Year of the Association commenced in the Long Room at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with the new Great Southern Stand providing the perfect backdrop . M CC President Dr. Don Cordner and AFL President Ross Oakley combined to launch the Association's history, "For by Joseph Johnson, a the Love of The Gar " magnificent record of ,ars of Amateur Football and its role in e fe .

It was the year of The Premier's Cup which ended on the Saturday prior to the season opening when WA's Werribee defeated the VCFL's North Ballarat . Be La Salle represented the VAFA and those present at Frankston witnessed a superb game in which Be La went away to a long lead against VFA's Dandenong only to see that team get up in the last minutes of an incredibly long quarter . Major changes to our rules for the season were the reduction of the 50 metre penalty to 25 metre penalty and the abolition of the line across the centre circle . We welcomed three new representative coaches : Barry Richardson (senior coach], Ken Bremner (C-G Section coach) and John Simpson (BI9 coach) . To recognise our Centenary Year and to put Amateur Football on show before local football public, the VAFA Senior Team would play South Australia on gueens Birthday at Waverley Park as a curtain raiser to the AFL game Hawthorn versus Adelaide . Melbourne University Football Club mourned the loss of Harry Sharpe, life inember, Reds Official and ever present supporter .

tr=~__,tare3ng, teaching and exhibiting the virtue of s;30= :sr,nnship . c ui u-ticle, 'Respect between players and coaches ' i Vol. 23 no 3), we talked about respec t s and coach . Coaches exhibit respect fo r d they merit the respect of their players b y zi~ d icaching the game. But the responsibility runs that. i . m' . about the nature of competition, and about its i,,r,, an educational setting, if you understand wha t te, you will recognise that respect for your e .s ;s, above all, taking responsibility for teachin g ~] n: principles of sportsmanship . How? on the age and the character of the players, th e A differ, but teaching sportsmanship will always ?me combination of explicit instruction, example, a.nities for practice . coach sceptical: if my job depends on winning the distric t I don't have time to set aside for sportsmanshi p inute I'm allowed to spend with my players - and iot enough time as it is - I need to be concentrating

p! .:~.irig die game as well . 'ill , if you think about what it means to play th e sportsmanship is part of playing it well . But we ,, , to be clear here: were not talking about setting zarate practice sessions on sportsmanship . In about explicit instruction, setting an example, and ng sportsmanship, what were really asking you to do o coach in light of the principles of sportsmanship - to ply them while you run your drills and practices an d h the games. It won't take extra time, and it won't -act from your efforts to win ; it might mean tat you'll do things you've always done differently, though . hir' by explicit instruction : talk about nanship. Explain it . Don't assume that kids can't i :md. Why should you treat an opponent with Because no opponent, no game . Do you want to : ;he game or not? Do you get something out of playin g e or not? Direct moral exhortation alone is not ro :gh, but in this age of compulsive psychological engineering, its often shortchanged . Tell them something's wrong or right, tell them why it's wrong or right, and say it like you mean it. Some times it's a real eye opener for them. When he was asked what he told his athletes, Brutus Hamilton, the head coach of the US track and field team for the 1952 Olympics Games said : The gist of my talks with the boys can be reduced by a fe w -rq le words, 'Honour yourselves, your country and your oi i ~nrizts with your very best performances and with your - ~- ~ [ behavior'. nding on the coach and the situation, saying it like you THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2002

mean it might involve a reserved seriousness - or it might involve some heartfelt shouting. If you do express anger at players, a good self check is to ask yourself if you're yelling at them because they lost a game or kicked a ground ball or because they did something un-sportsmanlike. Did they make a mistake or did they do something wrong? If they lost the game or dropped the fly because they made a halfhearted effort, that's an issue of sportsmanship ; but if they played the game or went for the ball with all of the skill they possess (that is, that you've taught them), and they still seem lost, then what's the point of treating them as if they did something morally wrong? Ask yourself if you're really mad at them because they did something wrong - or if you're mad because you didn't get to chalk up another one in the win column? Are you yelling at them to show everybody in the stands that its their fault, not yours - or to teach them? Teach by example : preaching without practising what you preach is better that neither, especially if you're occasionally honest enough to admit that you didn't live up to what you preach . But the example that coaches set in the arena of sportsmanship cannot be overestimated . If you insist that the players 'behave' - that is, at least on the surface, appear to respect opponents, teammates, officials and their coach but they see you treat others with nothing but disrespect, the lesson is all too clear. What they learn is that when they get to be the one in charge, they can treat any way they want to. It's only when someone, with power over them forces them to behave this way that they should do it, not because its better or because they'll be better human beings for doing it. Practising sportsmanship: if sportsmanship is a virtue, it can be praetised . Coaches have a responsibility to make the workouts as well as the games occasions for the practice of sportsmanship. Every good coach knows that even though an occasional light workout is a good idea, generally speaking, halfhearted practice translates into halfhearted efforts in competition. Likewise, even though occasionally allowing players to let of steam in practice is probably a good idea, if you allow your players to show disrespect for opponents, teammates, or the game in a daily practice you'll find that they have developed the habit disrespect . If its OK for them to throw their racquets when they're playing a teammate in a practice match, then how could it not be OK to do it during a match? Even if it's not OK, it's a tough habit to break . Not many people know that when Bjorn Borg started playing tennis as a teenager in Sweden, he had a bad temper . After one outburst on the court his coach sent him home for a couple of weeks and told him that when he came back one more episode would result in a permanent expulsion from the tennis club . As most people know, no tennis player in the history of the game conducted himself with greater dignity than Bjorn Borg during his career. Re printed - Sports Coach (Vol . 23, No 4 2001) 25

Old Trinity were finalists and with a little :ould have gone a few steps further in 2001 , r Dean Peters they will be looking to g o p le better.

An old battle looms for North Old Boys as they host neighbours Uni . Blacks . A changing of the guard at Blacks and NOBS - coaching vvise gives both teams a huge lift.

LOOKING BACK . . Old Xaverians celebrated their promotion to 'C' section with a 73 point win over Hampton Rovers . Commonwealth Bank player Tony Borrack completed an unusual feat by having now played in every section of Amateur football as well as representing Victoria in Amateur football . (Can readers give me names and details of others with comparable records?). 30 YEARS AGO - 197 2

Mrs Norma Fullerton was honored with life membership of the Association . Ormond who reversed their second semi-final defeat by University Blues to triumph by 4 goals in the Grand Final unfurled the 'A' section flag, their first since 1950 .

Executive of the Umpires' Association were Graham Simpson, Norman Sharpe, Ken Jorgensen, Lindsay Thomas and Phillip Rowell, with Brian Nicholls in charge of social activities .

McKay, with John Posetti as secretary . Geoff Hibbins returned to the Amateur scene as coach of the Collegians . Missing from the Executive was prominent identity, Mac Toliday, former secretary of Commonwealth Bank (in 2002 a director of the Brisbane Lyons), who had been transferred to Sydney. Old Ivanhoe welcomed former Richmond full forward Bob Dummett as coach . It was a great thrill for AJAX to unfurl their first premiership flag with "Bunty" Davis, wife of President Harold Davis, unfurling the flag . Young Coburg Juniors ruckman, Rod MacFarlane, 16, made a spectacular debut, kicking 9 goals and was best afield. 50 YEARS AGO - 195 2 Hampton Rovers unfurled their first ever 'A' Section pennant. Captain was Sam Birtles . Doug Arnold who had captained the 1951 'A' section team had been appointed coach replacing premiership coach, 'Boss' James who had retired.
