Older Boys Squeeze Past A's The O50 Men hosted Athletics Wednesday night, producing their 11th 'W' of the season. Murray Hutchison led the way with a hat trick in the victory. Final 3-2 Vic West.

Auld Bhoys Haggis Burst By A's Oh dear, and on Robbae Burns dae ta boot! The O40 Scottish Men were at Layritz on a rainy Wednesday night, facing Athletics. It wasn't a good showing by the Wests with the exception of a great, curling shot & goal, from John McRice. Final 3-1 A's. I would just like to add a special thanks with regards to the sportsmanship of the A's forward (I believe the last name rhymes with Looza), whose colourful language and timely tackles make playing the game that much better. You are a credit to the game.
