The first Game Day event at Toowong was met with the hottest gala day to date.

Despite the hot conditions, we witnessed some tremendous touch footy matches across the age groups.

Term 4 was one of many firsts, including player jerseys, team logos, new sponsors, the introduction to touch footy program (for 4-6 year olds) and the inclusion of Forest Lake.

Over 130 registered kids across the three locations made for a fantastic term of touch footy.

The increased numbers gave a real team environment and made each weekly session enjoyable for the kids, and coaching team alike.

There was a strong skills focus on the very basics of touch footy. No matter the age group or team, catching, passing, agility and rucking were four common skills in activities.

Secondary skills such as kicking, diving and easy touch footy moves made for a fun variation to any session.

Perhaps the most notable was teamwork. Whether working together in pairs or larger groups; the focus in the vast majority of activities was getting involved and working together.

And it showed, with some highlight-reel performances on Sunday, December 8th at Toowong.
