Humpty Doo Polocrosse Club has had a huge year!! To start the season the Humpty Doo Club travelled to Queensland to play at Cunningham carnival, Killarney carnival and the Australian Club Champs, with two teams with the first side becoming runners up in the D Grade competition at the club champs. A great time was had by all and we are sure that many people now know our club and us.
Our club has progressed from a four-member club at the end of start of last season to a four-team club at the end of this season. We have a huge number of new and young players which are moving through the ranks very quickly and the rest of their polocrosse families are becoming involved which is fantastic for the polocrosse in Darwin.
We are very proud of our members that have been selected for the up coming Nationals in Albury. The club and our state will be very well represented; the players are Annette Rixon, Zoe Riggs, Patrick Coleman, Chris Diplock, Christie Thompson and Belinda Howard.
We have become very competitive in the local competition with the Humpty Doo sides making three A grade finals as well as winning a B grade Final and numerous C Grade and D Grade finals.
The Club Champs we unfortunately found some nerves being the runners up in three grades however a traitor in our midst played in another A Grade side which won the A Grade champs which made us feel a little satisfied.
The NTPA Awards Nite was a raging success for the Humpty Doo Club and the results below show the strength of our club which we feel will progress into next season with no doubt that we will be more then a competitive club.
