SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS The Avoca Football Netball Club were very pleased to award two of our up and coming junior players with the AFNC Scholarship Awards at the recent Graduation Night. Marissa Harvey Marissa commenced playing netball for Avoca in 2019 and has amassed 56 games to date for the Bulldogs. 2023 saw Marissa play 13 games for the season in the Under 11 grade and also played 13 and Under grade netball. She was recognised by her coach as showing leadership qualities, and has continued to improve as each season has progressed. Her speed and agility allowed her to play in most positions during the season, which is a great asset for her future netball. The Avoca Bulldogs look forward to seeing Marissa leading the way for her team mates in the future years. Congratulations Marissa! Emmett Ferguson Emmett has been an outstanding player for our club since first playing in 2019. He has played a total of 79 games and has kicked 28 goals. Emmett has won numerous awards while playing football for the Avoca Football Netball Club including the club Under 11.5 Runner-Up Best & Fairest in 2022 which was an outstanding achievement. He is an on field leader and is a great user of the football setting up many forward moves in our Under 11.5 team in 2023. Emmett comes from a good sporting and community minded family who are heavily involved with the Avoca FNC, particularly at Junior Level. We look forward to what lies ahead on the football field for Emmett. Congratulations Emmett! Emmett & Marissa are pictured with 2024 Club President, Sandie Ward, who presented them both with their awards.
