[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]My first term as President has been a challenge however in reflection I believe overall, we have had a very successful year both on and off the field.
From an on-field point of view we managed to field 23 sides – which included an incredible five Girls sides. Whilst our demographic is ageing and there is so much more opportunity for children to participate in […]

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The St Mary’s Football Club had approximately 497 players take the field in the 2017 season. This large number reflects the standards set by the Club. We are a Club that allows children to get a game of football each weekend.
When playing a sport, children have the opportunity to show their skills, gain greater self-awareness, and enjoy an activity that they love the most.
Football […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Club rooms will be open from around 3pm this Sunday. Everyone is welcome back to the rooms to celebrate some Grand Final glory and to celebrate the finish of another football season.
DJ Tony will be playing tunes and foods will be provided.
Congratulations to the five sides who have made it through to the Grand Final this Sunday. We, as a Club, are already proud […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Congratulations to Under 11 Red who progressed straight through to the Grand Final. We still have seven sides playing this week with the hope of progressing.
If you are around in the area during any of the games, it would be great to come along and show your support.
Good luck to the following sides – The Club is proud of your achievements so far, this […]

Well, the finals have arrived. From the 18 sides that could qualify for finals I can proudly announce that we have 12 of these sides progressing onto the first week of the finals. A terrific effort from those sides and good luck in the following weeks. Commiseration to those sides that missed out – I know you put your heart and soul into the […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It’s hard to believe last round of the home and away season is already upon us. Many sides have already qualified for finals and there are still a few in the hunt for a finals berth. Best of luck to those sides for the coming weeks. Unfortunately, we do have approximately half our sides playing their final game for the year. These sides have […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The St Mary’s Senior Footballers enter the business end of the season in good shape.
With all three teams in the top three, and the majority of the players being past juniors, it’s great to see so many of our former players continuing on with their football and enjoying success.
Saturday sees all three teams taking on Banyule away, and the following week, August 5th has […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Unfortunately, my message about officials and parent behaviour has fallen on deaf ears. The club unfortunately has now been placed on a $1,500 bond until the end of the 2018 season. The YJFL are determined to make a statement and are imposing large penalties and fines.
As a reminder if you are doing an official duty, it is your responsibility to fill this duty as […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]School is back now and we are storming towards the end of the season. Yes, the winter chill has set in but it is not far away until spring breaks and finals begin. Speaking of finals, we have over half our sides currently in finals positions with a few more still in the hunt to force their way into top four positions.
Again, I seem […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I hope we are all refreshed after a week off and ready to crack into the last bit of the season.
As a club, we have had a large representation (too many to name them all) over the past few weeks in the YJFL representative sides. Congratulations to all those who made these sides and a big thank you for presenting our club in such […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Not that I wish to harp on this message, but again I implore all our members to focus on their behaviour at this weekend’s games. This is a directive coming from the league following a lapse in appropriate conduct at all clubs across the league and after an incident that made news headlines during the week, the league will be very forceful on any […]
