President's Report 17 June 2009
Hello and welcome.
Hope everyone has had another fantastic week. Following our monthly soccer meeting that was held last week, a few issues/topics have arisen and I have been asked to put them forward in this week’s edition of E off the Post.
Woollies grant successful!
A while back the soccer club applied for a grant through Woolworths Fresh Food Kids Community Grants, and we are pleased to announce that we have been successful. The money will be used to go toward shade shelters. I will have more information as time goes on. A HUGE thanks to the effort put in by Venetia to receive this grant.
Why recycling matters
I'm not an active member of Greenpeace, but recycling can only help the environment. We can all benefit from recycling things from around the house, work, or during our leisure time. Over the next few weeks our soccer committee members are going to organise for all of us to take part in recycling. We will start off by having a bin for our empty cans, which will be located at the canteen. This is a fantastic opportunity for our kids to see, be participants, and that as a club we are doing our bit for the environment.
Performance of young referees
Positive feedback has been a hot topic this week among the parents regarding our young refs. Juliet has mentioned praise from a Samford U10's mother about Billy Hohns manner with the children, also the performance of Travis Vetier refereeing the U7's was also excellent. Well done boys keep up the great job your doing. All of our young refs are doing a fantastic job and we are all very proud to have them as part of our soccer club.
Safety during matches
Another issue that was mentioned during the meeting was the importance of spectators not cutting corners during games. This is a concern for young children being knocked down by players, as well as respecting the playing field.Comments were made to me on Saturday about the speed in which cars have entered and exited the oval parking area. We cannot say slow down to each and every driver. Lets put the safety first of each and everyone of us who meets for our matches/training.
Chelsea coaching clinic
We need more Dayboro players!(the original post for this is in E off the post Edition 9) The Development Camps will run from Monday, 6 July until Friday, 10 July and are currently being staged at Albany Creek (from 1-4 pm) or Narangba (2-5 pm), however if we can get 16 players from Dayboro, a clinic will be able to run at our very own ground. At the moment we are well on the way to getting 16 players.The cost of the course is $175 per player, however if we get the numbers we will also get a 10% discount which will mean the cost will be $157.50, so now is the time to act. Please send an e-mail to Scott Whitaker (U12 Coach) at info@doggett.com.au with your child's name, age group and the following details:
1) I will register my child regardless of the venue (Dayboro, Albany Creek or Narangba) or
2) I will register my child, only if the clinic is held in Dayboro.

Under 12 Report - 13th June 2009
Dayboro U12’s vs The Gap – top of the table clash
What a great game, what a great result! The clash between our team (second on the table) and The Gap (top of the table) set the scene for an exciting game. Dayboro came out firing and put pressure on The Gap straight away. Ed got stuck in straight off the whistle with a solid tackle to take the ball away from the opposition and moved the ball forward. By the end of the second minute, Jed took a shot at goal. Another sign of things to come involved Alex and Oliver combining well in their passing to move the ball forward in a one-two sequence.
In the seventh minute, Dayboro scored the first goal. Alex moved the ball forward from the edge of the penalty box. He could have blasted the ball for a speculator shot, but as coach Scott had drilled into the team ‘control’, Alex chose to move forward and ‘with control’, and swept the ball into the goal!
Dayboro did not let up after the first goal. With The Gap rattled, Dayboro kept moving forward. Jake had a strong run, Travis made a long range pass and Kade had a shot at goal. Alex would have scored again in the ninth minute, but was called offside. With all the pressure on The Gap and Dayboro pushing forward, Alex scored again after being fed a good ball from his team mates.
The opposition spectators sensed the Dayboro dominance when one called out, "Two of you tackle him!" In attack or defence Dayboro dominated. More disciplined passing saw Alex, Kade and Olivia moving the ball up the field. Oliver showed tenacity against some of the stronger Gap players by tackling, falling over, getting up again and tackling a second time. Twenty minutes into the game and Dayboro hadn’t eased off. A second call from the sideline could be heard by all, "two of you tackle him" – a desperate spectator! With heightened excitement, Alex further entertained the home crowd with an overhead kick receiving a great cheer from the Dayboro supporters.
Toward the end of the first half, Dayboro let The Gap into the game. The Gap had several pushes forward with shots at goal. Franz did well to keep the ball out of the net. Finally, as Dayboro was anticipating the end of the first half, they were caught off guard by a long range shot from outside the penalty box. The ball rose high and long over the defence and went into the top corner of the Dayboro goal.
Half time gave Coach Scott a chance to reinforce the game plan "move the ball, track the ball". Scott also added some words of encouragement, "Our passing is sweet, we’re tearing them apart, and their goal caught us on breakaway!"
The Gap started the second half well with a shot at goal in the first few minutes; but again Franz was solid in goal. The beginning of the second half also saw more of the ball moving up and down the pitch in a midfield battle. Oliver took a superb shot from out wide with The Gap goalie having to take dive. The goalie was surprised at the shot on target from such a narrow angle. Against the run of plan, The Gap scored again. Another long range shot, Franz at full stretch got a hand to the ball and pushed it wide, but not wide enough. The ball hit the post and went into the goal. The Gap celebrated at levelling the score but Dayboro had a problem. With Franz committing himself to the previous save, he injured his hand and could not keep goal for the rest of the match. Brad, ever the enthusiast, did not hesitate when he was asked to go in goal. This would be a fortunate replacement as Brad was destined to entertain later in the game.
In the tenth minute of the second half, Dayboro would score again. An exceptional goal, Olivia took the ball down the right from halfway, dribbled it deep into the opposition’s half, then crossed the ball with a pin point pass. Kade connected with the ball and slotted in the goal. Dayboro’s intensity was back with passing combinations being one of many highlights of match. Again, Oliver crossed the ball and nearly scored. The Gap took advantage of whatever ball they could get and scored again to level the match.
Even though the game was levelled after 15 minutes into the second half, Dayboro kept dominance over the match. The game continued back and forth with Dayboro continuing to bring the ball out of defence. The strong Dayboro mid-field was dependable with Mathew and India. Jeremy was also strong throughout the match providing good balls to the forwards, or moving it forward himself.
Toward the end of the match, Dayboro had a corner and Coach Scott threw caution to the wind and called Brad up from his goal posting to try for the goal winning header. The ball was crossed in and Brad just missed scoring. As The Gap moved the ball out of defence, Brad sprinted back to his goal at full speed to the cheer of the crowd. This underlined the theme of the game, entertainment plus!
With only minutes to go until the end of the match, Jak had a couple of strong kicks in midfield to keep the ball in the oppositions half. More pressure from Dayboro moved the ball toward The Gap’s goal and fittingly enough, a third goal from Alex - his hat-trick!!
Minutes later the final whistle blew. The Dayboro players jumped around in excitement and the supporters cheered making it one of the best supported games of the year. Well done Coach Scott! Dayboro U12’s are top of the table, knocking off the previous top team – The Gap.
Player of the match was Jeremy Lake

No Smoking Policy – could all parents please be aware of a nil tolerance policy for those who choose to light up in the areas surrounding the pitch. This can affect all those who are in the same proximity as the smokers. Where they dispose of their cigarette butts is another issue.
Speed Limits – on Saturday I did notice a few vehicles using the area around the parking area a little unsafe. Please take care as we have a considerable number of girls and boys in these areas who are only focused on their friends and playing soccer – not vehicles.
See you at training or at the game.

Why I think the U12 team will get in the soccer finals this year (by Matt Simons)
I am a player in the U12 soccer team for Dayboro Dingoes. We are all good players in the positions we are given, and sometimes if we are given a different position, we might be even better at it. No matter what we do, even if we loose, we all have fun!
We are lucky enough to have a coach who is also an actual soccer player. He teaches us his skilful moves and games during our lesson. If we finish early we play a soccer game, usually red verses white, but whichever team has the least players, gets the coach. It is very enjoying to have him and a great opportunity to learn wonderful moves.
Most of us in this team, have been playing for 5-6 years and have had a great experience. Whilst some of us are 11 years old, most of us are 12 - although we are from different schools (most from Dayboro). Even though some of us are little and younger, we never tease any one and if we make a mistake, unlike some other teams who harass there own players, we just say "good try better luck next time".
We do win a lot of our games and have only lost one game so far, but as I said we all enjoy playing. We pass the ball all the way up the field and if we’re in the right place in the right time, we score. Often there are times where we pass but the other team gets it, but we try and stop them and start all over again.
Fortunately, with our training, we have been playing so well that the Dayboro U12 team is in second place on the ladder. We are all thrilled with our current position, although on Saturday 13/6/9 we have to play against the team coming first, The Gap, and we all feel like having fun, the team, the two captains and me, the vice captain.

President's Report
Hello and welcome to another edition of E off the Post.
What a great weekend starting with soccer on Saturday and Dayboro Day on Sunday. The weather really held up for us. I would like to thank all the mums and dads who helped out at the soccer stall during the course of the day and to all that participated in the march. I was proud to see all those who marched having a great time and picking those faces in the crowd they knew. It was also great to see that our club entered the waterless raft race with the energetic crew trying their hardest as they dashed through the centre of town. Well done!
I would personally like to thank Caroline, her son and Juliet for setting up our stall for Dayboro Day. It was early and a little chilly out and about at that time of the day. Michele, Kim and Tanya for making the bouyant raft for the race. A kind hearted thanks to all those I have not mentioned. You know who you are. Thanks.
Watching several games at Samford on Saturday, certainly shows that training and practice is paying off. Teams are working well together. All those happy smiles highlight the enjoyment that both boys and girls playing team sport are having, plus the smiles and loud vocal support from mums and dads.
Thanks to those players who stepped up a level and played for those teams who were short on players. Well done.
Keep up with all team match reports and see you at the pitch.
