A SIZZLING SUMMER IS ON IT'S WAY!!

Hi Beach-Goers...

I have returned from my adventures, a married man and with thousands of photos and memories to share... I have also come home to a very hot and smokey Camden, all signs that SUMMER is nearly here, and, there is every indication that this one is going to be a scorcher!! So rather than just sitting at home in your stuffy house complaining about the heat, OR running up that electricity bill while you sit under your air-con on these hot summer nights, come down to Camden Beach Sports @ Camden Sports Club "Sporties" and tackle the summer heat head on. Everyone knows that a Beer tastes sooo... good when you've worked up a sweat and really earnt it.

Competition will begin on Monday 18th November... With 5 weeks of the comp played before Christmas (final week being 16th-19th Dec), and the remainder of comp played out in the new year (recommencing on 20th Jan). Games begin no earlier than 6pm, with 40-45 minute time-slots, depending on numbers of teams in the sport you are playing. Places for teams in each competition are limited so register quickly or you may miss out... Comps are ALL AGE, so teenage kids are able to play as long as they are strong enough to compete against adults.

Sports this season include:
MONDAY - Beach Soccer (Men's & Mixed)
TUESDAY - Beach Volleyball (Mixed 4up & Open 2up)
WEDNESDAY - Beach Touch Footy (Mixed & Men's)
THURSDAY - Beach Netball (Mixed & Ladies)
THURSDAY - Beach Tennis (Open, 3 player teams)

For more information, or to register... Call: Ben - 0404 439 170 or Phoebe - 0421 399 893

Thanks again everyone for your ongoing support!

AUTUMN SEASON ALMOST READY TO ROLL!!

After a very busy Summer in 12/13, Camden Beach Sports is getting ready for the final season of the Beach Sports year before the Winter break. With excellent numbers across all sports last season, we are looking forward to another busy season, with many teams taking the option to roll over their registration for just $25 before the end of the previous competition.
Competition over the past 4 months has been extremely tight, and the Summer Finals have been some of our closest finals to date... CONGRATULATIONS to all of our Summer Season Winner's so far:

Mixed Beach Soccer - Six-on-tha-Beach defeated Raging Bullets (defending their Spring Title)

2up Beach Volleyball - The Clams defeated Northern Exposure (who were the defending Champions)

Div. 1 Beach Volleyball - Quick Flops defeated Top Guns (defending their Spring Title)

Div. 2 Beach Volleyball - Toon Squad defeated The Chiefs

Mixed Beach Touch Footy - Touchy Feely defeated Tries 'R' Us (defending their Spring Title)

Men's Beach Touch Footy - Dixie Normas defeated Beached Az! (defending their Spring Title)

Beach Netball Semi's and Finals were washed out this week, and will be played this Thurday!!

Autumn Season does officially begin this week, however there are still a number of spaces to fill across all sports, so if you have been a little slow in entering your team for the current comp, call me ASAP to see if we can still fit you into the draw.

CALL BEN - 0404 439 170

Thanks again to everyone who has supported Camden Beach Sports over the past 6 years!! It will be our 6th Birthday in May this year, hopefully we can organise a bit of a Birthday Bash on the Beach... But without the support of all of our young (and not so young) local sporting enthusiasts, we wouldn't be able to run such a unique, fun and friendly sporting organisation, so THANK-YOU!!
