💚💛 **WINGHAM FC – 2026 PRESENTATION DAY** 💚💛
What a fantastic way to celebrate another season of football at Wingham FC!
Our 2026 Presentation Day was an opportunity to bring our Warriors family together, recognise the achievements of our players, coaches and volunteers, and reflect on another wonderful year for our club.
From our youngest MiniRoos taking their first steps in football through to our experienced senior players, we're incredibly proud of everyone who pulled on the green and gold this season.
⚽ **MINIROOS – OUR FUTURE WARRIORS**
A huge congratulations to all our MiniRoos players from our U6, U7, U8, U9, U10 Green and Gold, and U11 Green and Gold teams!
For our youngest Warriors, football is about developing skills, building confidence, making friends and, most importantly, having fun.
It has been fantastic watching these players develop throughout the season, and we hope to see plenty of familiar faces back on the field in 2027.
A special thank you to the coaches, managers and families who make our MiniRoos program possible.
