MODBURY JETS PLAYER SAYS KONICHIWA!

"Konichiwa from Japan!"  So says Modbury Jets Under 19s/17s player Tim Henderson, who travelled to Hiroshima with the Adelaide United team for the return leg of their Asian Champions League match against Sanfrecca Hiroshima.

This experience of a lifetime came to Tim courtesy of a scholarship arranged between AUFC and Banksia Park High School. Tim has recounted some of the highlights of his trip including travelling at 300kms an hour on a 'bullet train'; visiting a WWII memorial site in Hiroshima; meeting Australian Socceroos coach Pim Verbeek and of course, being a part of the Adelaide United support team and experiencing the excitement first hand of an international football match!

Tim also got great advice from AUFC players ....."be patient your time will come, work hard, be ruthless and really want it (to be a professional footballer)!" We congratulate Tim on being selected for this fantastic oppprtunity; he has been a wonderful ambassador for Modbury Jets, Adelaide United and South Australia!

NEW AWAY STRIPS FOR JUNIORS

Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Clubs SA, our Junior Premier League teams will all be wearing a brand new Away strip this year. The Nike brand strip in navy blue replaces the club's previous away shirts which were long past their use by date.

According to our Under 12 Blue team, which were the first to wear the new strip - they look fantastic. We all agree!  

Thanks to Clubs SA, Modbury's Juniors will be the best dressed teams playing in the FFSA this year!

Adelaide United's last home match of the season pulled off a spectacular win for both AUFC and Modbury Soccer Club, who was chosen as the local

club to benefit from the Hyundai Goals for Grassroots initiative. Every goal scored by Adelaide United converted into $1,00 forModbury, and with a

guaranteed $1,000 donation to kick off with, by game's end the club was $3,000 richer!

A cheque was presented by thestate manager for Hyundai to Keith Levett, Junior Chairman, and players from the junior teams, Harry Ocego-Kingsley

(Under 12W); Ben Floyd (Under 13s) ; Declan Bebbington (Under 16); Nicky Cope (Under 11); Tim Henderson (Under 17's) and

Jemma Levett (Under 8's).

The proceeds will be spent on new equipment, including goals for the SSF teams; spring loaded corner posts for all grounds and other resources

to benefit the entire club.

A big thanks to Hyundai for their wonderful generosity!
