AFL

The 2023 ACC Boys AFL team played against the SSWA team on Friday 13 October at Fremantle Oval. The tournament was preceded by a formal jumper presentation at the South Fremantle Football Club. 

The event was endorsed by the WAFC who provided the umpires, awards and venue arrangements.  This year, we were fortunate to have Elijah Hewett from the West Coast Eagles attend as the guest presenter of awards.  

The game was a very high standard and all ACC players were able to showcase their wonderful talent.  The team had a great start, leading by 6 goals at half time.  The SSWA team worked hard to make a come back, reducing the margin to 19 points in the final term. However, the ACC managed to hold their lead, winning 81-62.

Special thanks to coach Ryan Henley (Emmanuel Catholic College), assistant coach Ben Sokol (Emmanuel Catholic College) and manager Michael Tassone (Ursula Frayne Catholic College) for volunteering their time to select and manage the team.

The ACC would also like to acknowledge the trainers and helpers who assisted the coaching team. Thanks to Jarrod Parry (CBC Fremantle) and Luca Gangemi (Emmanuel Catholic College) for assisting from trials to the game.  Luca was the captain of last year's ACC team so it was nice to see him back supporting the coaching staff and players.
