FFA CUP UPDATE

After a hard fought comeback, Rovers defeated Gymea United 3-1 to progress to the 4th Round of the FFA Cup.

Rovers were down 1-0 at half time after conceding a goal 1 min before half time. Then, as fate would have it, Rovers equalised 1 min before full time to take match into Extra time.

By this stage, Rovers had all the momentum and after a penalty and goal, finshed the game off with a well deserved 3-1 victory.

After the team belted out the team victory song we now look forward to the challenge in the next round. # Magicofthecup

This year Australia Day marks a special celebration as our very own Club President Karen Waud has been honoured for over 40 years of dedication and service to local community sport with an Order of Australia Medal in today's Australia Day Honours List.

This is a fantastic achievement and acknowledgement of the passion showed by Karen to provide opportunities for our local community, young and old and of all abilities to engage in sports like football, netball and cricket in a club founded by her late father Lester Waud.

Karen is an icon of our club and community and richly deserves the accolades bestowed upon her today in the Australia Honours List.

Congratulations Karen Waud OAM!
