Action kicks off tonight at the Alex Cork Fields, Dorrigo with a 6.30pm start scheduled for the Dorrigo Highlanders against the Bellingen Bats.  This make-up game is a “Top of the Mountain” versus Valley clash with plenty of familiar faces making up both the Dorrigo and Bellingen teams.  This will be a test for the Dorrigo Highlanders with the Bellingen team currently sitting in second place on the North Coast Football ladder.  Bring a travel mug, a warm blanket and plenty of voice to cheer on your team.

After some broken rounds with rain and closed fields the Dorrigo Club is looking forward to a fine weekend when they play host to four visiting clubs.  Saturday’s play on the Alex Cork Fields, Dorrigo begins early with the Miniroos on the main field from 9am and runs right through the day with the Dorrigo Highlanders playing the Sawtell Scorpions in the final game at 3pm.

The full Dorrigo game list for the day is: 9am Miniroos; 10am 8s girls Lyrebirds vs Bellingen; 10.15am 14 girls Bluegums vs Bellingen; 10.40am 11s Wallabies vs Bellingen; 11am 8s boys Quolls vs Boambee; 11.30am 16 girls Waratahs vs Bellingen; 12 noon 9s Dingoes vs Sawtell; 1pm Women’s Cedars vs Boambee and 3pm Mens Highlanders vs Sawtell.

All teams have been competing strongly with the Dorrigo players proving, across all levels, that age and size don’t determine skill and staying power.  The canteen will be open all day for hot food and drinks, snacks and cold drinks so join us to enjoy some great local football action.

For the Bellingen Club it’s only two games at home on Saturday as the fields dry out after the wet.  The 8s Bellingen Blitz host the Sawtell Spirit at 10am followed by the 9s Bellingen Bats taking on the Boambee Jets at 11am.
