COBURG JUNIOR FOOTBALL CLUB HISTORY

In 1999, Newlands Coburg and Coburg Amateur Junior Football Clubs amalgamated to form the club known today as Coburg juniors.

SEASON 2000

Season 2000 was a hard season off ground whilst on ground with inspirational efforts by all our teams saw the Club win it's first Flag as the new club.

Other highlights were:

Under 15's win Coburg's 1st Flag.

Under 17's made is to the Prelimanary Final.

Under 13's finished just outside the 4 and gave it their best.

Under 11's finished 3rd, were knocked out at Prelimanary Final.

Under 15 DVFL 3rd Best and Fairest Ali Abdul-Rahim

SEASON 2001

Again In 2001 the previous years under 15 and previous years under 17's side came together to be an elite team of footballers who won the Under 17 flag to give the club 2 consecutive flags in 2 different age groups.

Under 10's made it all the way to the Prelimanary final where in extra time after the 4th quarter went down but still fighting to Mill Park.

Other Highlights included:

Under 17 DVFL Runner up Best and Fairest Levi Wallace on 19 votes.

Under 15 Best and Fairest Winner Daniel Rajab with 6 best on grounds.

The Club coming 4th overall in The Lew Hall Trophey.

In 2001 our younger age groups were also involved in finals action but sadly didn't make it to the big one but did a great job to get were they did.

SEASON 2002

Season 2002 saw a tough year both on and off the ground.

With no teams in finals and missing under 17's this was demanding on the very young club.

Our under 15's going down in 13 games to very disiplined teams but found an even match when we played Diamond Creek. Winning one game through the season showed the tireless determination and heart. This is a good stepping stone for the under 17 team in 2003.

SEASON 2003

A great effort by all involved. The tireless work put in by so many put the club in good stead for 2004.
With no Under 17 team the club serged ahead, with 2 out of 3 teams in the finals, after all 2 out of 3 aint bad.
The Under 11's showed strength to get to were they did but did not preform to the standard needed to make it past the second semi final.

The Under 13's on the other hand had a good season, were in the four for most of the season, but boomed out in the second semi, they were a strong team unit but were'nt strong enough on the day.

The Under 15's, were our senior team, they did not enjoy alot of onfield sucsess but they did manage to put a few wins on the board. They were good role models for the younger age groups as they did not give up and they kept trying.
