The rosters for the season are available on Dribl. Typically we publish these one week before season commences. Please check out our Facebook page for the latest news on when these will be available and how to access.
A little brisk this morning and yet we still haven’t had a decent frost so far this year!
Fingers crossed the mild winter continues but it is probably about time to break out some warmer clothes and think about some running style gloves for our players to keep their hands warm in games.
Thanks again to our players, coaches and parents for a wonderful season so far.
The numbers are in from our partner - Banjo's Bakery Cafe. Over 2000 free small savouries and donuts have been given away to our players already this season!
We love that you are supporting our local family-owned bakery and what they give back to ERJSA each week.
Keep an eye out for the voucher person as they make their way around our grounds during the season. There is no better time to take advantage of this offer after a chilly Saturday morning game.
Thanks again to Scott Jones and the team at Banjo's Bakery Cafe for keeping our bellies full of goodies.
We were a little slower getting around grounds today, old age injuries meant one of us was on crutches today, which made life a little more challenging.
We are still working our way around the timeslots so if we haven’t managed to get to your team yet, or if for other reasons we need to retake a shot, don’t worry, there are still plenty of rounds left in the season.
Please enjoy the photos we managed to capture today.
We took a little trip north this weekend which as it turned out was rather good timing. Some IKEA furniture we ordered had arrived, so after a super quick stop it was onto Tynwald Park to watch some games and buy some pastries off the lovely Bianca who was running the canteen there at the home of the New Norfolk Panthers Soccer Club.
We were a little disappointed to hear a report from our volunteers who pack up Geilston Bay later that evening though. Apparently the area was left a little untidy this week by our community.
While bins can be few and far between at the locations we play, there are some about within a short walk. So please use them or alternatively take your rubbish with you.
Better still, be like the Japanese fans at the world cup who are cleaning up stadiums as an expression of respect, gratitude, and collective responsibility.
Please enjoy some shots from round 6.

It’s hard to believe it’s June with this type of weather!
Today we got to see Edgeworth for the first time, in at least a decade, maybe more, decked out in nets.
A huge thank you to Emily and Phil at Richmond again for taking on this job. Thank you also to the ESS parents who helped them at the end of day, this was much appreciated.
For these to stay up though, we are all going to have to pull up our socks and maintain more of a watchful eye over our young players and their siblings.
It didn’t take long for many to be sagging and partially pulled down. So coaches and parents, please make sure to keep the kids off, and out of, the nets.
We will work on some more secure bindings, but nothing is damage-proof unless we work together to make sure they are only used for the purpose they were intended for.
Round 5 now complete, please enjoy some shots of the day.

Cambridge Dog Park Opens!
In fantastic news for us dog owners, we have another park where we can exercise our furry family members!
We do however need to remember the rules around sports grounds, which are unchanged.
We would ask coaches to remember their duty of care and be particularly vigilant. General members of the public not associated with ERJSA may be utilising the area in an increased capacity and they may not be aware of the rules. So if needed, please stop play to gently ask those with dogs to leave the grassed areas if they enter.
Given the newness of this park, council Rangers will have an increased presence at Cambridge for the next few weeks, so please be mindful of the following:
--> Please keep pathways / access points clear to allow for dog park users to move through the space at the back of our grounds quickly.
--> Dogs must remain on lead when moving through the space to access the dog park but not cover any of the sports ground surfaces.
--> Dogs must always be under control in the dog park. People should never leave dogs unattended in the dog park.
--> Although it’s a lovely green space, the dog park does not double as a playground. Children / spectators cannot use the dog park for games etc.

The final rounds of the rosters are now live!
If you have any queries, your club is your first point of contact.
This is a collaborative approach with all the clubs having already received and reviewed the draft, so they are best placed to provide you support if needed.
Thank you so much to Aaron and Ava for all the work they have put in this year!
