WOOLWORTHS NORTHGATE PROUDLY SUPPORTING THE GDFC IN 2023
- Details
Exciting news with the significant investment by Woolworths in construction, employment and partnering with community-based Clubs with the newest store in the country opening at Northgate.
A vote of confidence in the future and growth of our City and Club Zone. GDFC players and club officials were invited to be a part of the store opening today. Woolies have confirmed that they will be supporting the Magpies next season, handballing over gift cards this morning, and providing food and drink support during the year.
The Glenorchy Senior Women's season has come & gone
- Details
The team certainly had a rocky start to the year. The team lost many players to AFLW, VFLW & other clubs. From such a difficult start, It required a major effort to form a competitive team.
A plan was devised to join with players & coaches from Dodges Ferry who did not have a team.
Training in two areas, only coming together once per week was not an ideal position. It took time for team plans & team skills to become familiar to all players.
