Pre Yass Soccer

The Yass Indoor soccer competition grew in popularity through the hard work and dedication of

Christine Greenwood into setting up the competitions, organising the teams, refreshments, prizes

etc.

Through a small group of parents, led by Andrew Jewell and Warren Nielson, a project was set up to

seek information in relation to setting up a local competition of outdoor soccer. This was started by

a questionnaire sent out to all participating parents in the indoor soccer competition in August 2002.

Following the survey feedback, it was obvious that the establishment of an outdoor soccer

competition would be supported and the preferred set up for a competition was in summer on a

Friday evening.

A project team of Andrew Jewell, Jason and Jane Rogers, Warren and Sue Nielson, Mark Valencic

and Rob MacArthur was set up to investigate all the necessary requirements that would have to

be met.

Items to investigate included: Affiliate Membership, Insurance, Playing Field, Funds, Equipment,

Committee, Competition, Registration, Development, Marketing and Communication. These

elements were assigned to members of the project team.

At the end of August 2002, Yass Shire Council supported the establishment of a Junior Soccer

competition on level 3 of Walker Park. Following this a public forum was held at Yass Soldiers Club

on 25th September 2002. This forum was attended by approximately 30 parents and interested

parties.

Through a letter seeking support for the soccer competition, the Yass Soldiers Club became the

Club's major sponsor - Gold Sponsor, and the Royal Hotel - Silver Sponsor.

In October 2002 application was made to the Southern Tablelands Soccer Association Inc seeking

membership to the NSWASF. Yass Soccer Incorporated was accepted into the Southern Tablelands

Soccer Association Inc.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Summer 2002/03

With no storage facilities at Walker Park, Yass Soccer operated out of a purpose-built trailer, built by

Drew Gallagher. The trailer became the mobile storage shed for equipment and canteen. It was

towed to Walker Park, fields setup and then it became the canteen serving many families each week

with drinks, sausage sandwiches and sweets.

The Yass Soccer competition finally kicked off on Friday 8th November 2002 with 4 divisions:

▪ 6 teams in Under 7 (more than 40 players)





3

More than 230 registered players and 28 parents acting as managers.

After a great competition, presentation night was held on 7th March 2003 at Walker Park. (As there

was no power available on level 3 power was kindly supplied by nearby resident Marion Darmody.

For his great professionalism, enthusiasm and dedication in creating an Outdoor Soccer Competition

in Yass, Andrew Jewell was nominated for the Yass Lions Club - Club Person of the Year in 2002.

Winter 2003

Following the success of the summer competition, interest was sought in the establishment of

winter teams competing against other towns. 2 teams were set up in 2003 an Under 11's and an

Under 13s.

Training began on 14th June 2003 which led to both Yass teams competing in the Cowra Cup

Carnival on Sunday 16th August 2003. Friendly games were arranged against Cowra, Tumut and

Goulburn teams leading up to the carnival.
