FIDA Wangaratta Merriwa Magpies

Thank you to Wangaratta Chronicle for the awesome story in today's paper.

Our players enjoyed a training session with North Wangaratta Football & Netball Club last night where our players learnt some tricks for the big battle at 11:30 against Benalla hopefully these tricks will get them a victory over Benalla.

Weather is looking awesome for a day of football on Sunday.

FIDA Statement
Due to the current weather forecast and the potential for unsafe playing and travel conditions, the decision has been made to postpone this weekend's carnival at North Albury Hoppers FIDA.

The safety and wellbeing of our players, volunteers, officials, and supporters is our highest priority, and we believe this is the most appropriate course of action given the forecast conditions.
A new date for the carnival is currently being explored and will be communicated to all clubs in the coming weeks.

Please share

Next carnival is at Wangaratta on sunday 23rd August at North Wangaratta Football & Netball Club
Please come and support all abilities football.
Canteen, coffee, raffles and much more
