Today my heart is absolutely bursting with pride as I reflect on our Under 10 Boys and Under 12 Girls Touch Football Teams competing at the Northern Eagles Championships on the weekend.

Watching these young kids step onto the field with courage, determination, and true team spirit was incredibly special. They represented our club with dignity, honesty, good sportsmanship and respect. We had so many positive comments come our way. Win or lose, they showed what it truly means to be a part of Barraba Junior Touch Football.

I want to extend my deepest thanks to our incredible community of parents. From social touch afternoons and organisation to training sessions, food preparation, tent atmosphere, beach session, team dinners, sideline cheers, endless encouragement, and unwavering support, make moments like this possible. You are the backbone of our club, and our players thrive because of the environment you help create. Filled with positivity, commitment and heart.

Thank you for believing in our kids, in our teams, and in the values we stand for. Together, we are building something truly special.

⭐️ BARRABA KIDS COMMENDED AS JUNIOR TOUCH WRAPS UP SEASON ⭐️

Our u10 boys and u12 girls have done us proud over the weekend at the Northern Eagles Junior Champs at Coffs Harbour, playing some very promising touch football against older, well-drilled opponents from across Northern NSW.

Although neither team came away with a win, there was a great deal of praise for our Barraba kids’ tenacity, positivity and general conduct over the tournament.

Each player has also shown great improvement in their game, positioning and teamwork in recent months - with some strong sequences of play at Coffs a thrill to watch.

🏃🏽The boys played against Macksville, Taree and Tamworth (twice); they were coached by Bindy Abell, and supported by Katie Shadbolt and Jimmy Hardaker.

🏃🏼‍♀️The girls played against Taree, Gunnedah, Coffs Harbour and Grafton; they were coached by Cint Russell, and supported by Penny Hands.

🐡 Both Bindy and Cint pulled on the referee kit a few times over the weekend, too. Along with Ben Abell, we wish to thank them for their efforts officiating on behalf of our association.

With some great food and beach time thrown in, it was a fun weekend away for players and supporters alike.

The Northern Eagles Junior Champs marks a wrap on our 2025/26 season for Barraba Junior Touch. We are grateful for the ongoing support of local families, friends and sponsors 👏👏👏
