Mother's Day at CDJFC

This past weekend, Carrum Downs Junior Football Club celebrated our annual Mother’s Day round in style. From the under 8s all the way up to the under 16s, our players put in a tremendous effort and displayed excellent sportsmanship on the field.

A big highlight was the Mother’s Day cake stall, which was a huge success thanks to all the families who contributed delicious baked goods. The stall raised valuable funds for the club while treating everyone to some sweet treats. Thank you to all who donated cakes, slices, and other goodies to make it such a hit!

The real stars of the show were the amazing mums, grandmothers and special women who share such special bonds with our players. We loved seeing them all get involved by joining their kids on the ground for the pre-game warm-ups. Watching them handballing and kicking with the kids and run out on the ground side-by-side was heartwarming.

When the matches kicked off, our club was shown in a fantastic light as the boys and girls played their hearts out, clearly inspired by having their number one supporters cheering them on from the sidelines. The mother-child relationships were on full display.

From baking for the stall, to lacing up their boots to stretch with the teams, to loudly cheering every goal, tackle and mark, the mums of Carrum Downs JFC went above and beyond. We are so grateful for their endless support and commitment to the club.

Thank you to all the players from under 8s through under 16s for representing Carrum Downs so well through your skill and sportsmanship. And a special thanks to all the mums for making this year’s Mother’s Day round one to remember!
