Under 6 Footballers Hit Maleny!

On Saturday over 300 footballers from across the Sunshine Coast, met at the Maleny showground where the Maleny Rangers FC hosted an Under 6 Football Carnival.
The gorgeous weather ensured a great turn out at the Carnival, where each team played 4 matches over the course of the day. How fantastic to see the 4-a-side teams in their club strips running around, enthusiastically chasing the ball.
In our small town way, Maleny met our visitors with o
pen arms. As with any big event, it takes a lot of dedicated volunteers to make it happen. Thank you to our members and their families who were able to bake goodies for the stall, set-up, organize, serve at the various food stalls, pack-up and generally assist where needed

Our Club is also fortunate to have many members of our community who, although not currently playing for the club, are as good as Ranger members; these are the wonderful people who come along to events such as this just to help out and enjoy the community spirit that envelops the day. Thank you again, to these wonderful people, without whom we would have struggled; in particular Kate Brown and John Brown, who were the key organizers and our volunteer photographer, Stephen Lyon, for the fantastic action shots!
A huge thankyou also goes out to our generous sponsors: Maleny Motor Trimmers; Rachel Leigh Optometrists; IT Concept Computers; Maleny Menswear; Maleny Auto Spares; Network Video; Mitre 10; Top of the Range Meats; Rosetta Books; Colin James; Upfront Club & Nepali Shop, whose sponsorship assisted with the many costs involved in hosting such an event and made it possible for each participant to leave with a Maleny Rangers medallion and small yoghurt ice-block.
