COLTS TAKE ON LADDER LEADER ON SUNDAY
This Sunday sees the Western magpies Colts take on the undefeated Maroochydore at Chelmer at 1.00pm.
The young Magpies are keen to rebound after last week’s loss, just their second for the year, and to take the scalp of the ladder leaders would be the best way possible to get back on track.
A renewed focus on keeping composed for all involved in the squad, working for each other and applying full ground pressure for the whole 4 quarters will provide the base that allows the Colts to play the exciting running game that has been a feature this season.
Maroochydore have shown to be a free flowing side capable of big scores, but the Pies will be looking to put the clamps on and use their home ground advantage to block up the space, cause turn overs and use our own fleet of speedy midfielders to hurt them in the rebound.
This week the side is bolstered by 3 Under 17's who have earned a promotion for this week, namely Chris Kotis, Sam DeNys & Luke Brown.
All these lads are quality Sherwood boys who the club sees a big future in. They will add something different to the Colts side and the Colts brains trust is excited to see how they go.
So head on down Sunday and have a good lunch, cold drink and have a look at the future . Both Under 17's and Colts playing on the same ground for an afternoon of quality youth football.
The team will be announced after training on Friday night.
