Korf Xmas Kayak and BBQ

Thanks to everyone who made it to the Korf Xmas Kayak and BBQ on the shore of Manly last month!

The festive crew of Santa’s paddled around in the pristine waters of the north harbour jumping out on a remote beach before racing back to the mainland for an afternoon BBQ feast provided by Victoria and Elise / cooked by Ian and Rob! This was then followed with a few rounds of Finska to finish the days activities (yes us Korfers like to try alternate European games)!IMG_4618

The End of Season 2014/2015 Showdown and Awards Night

In a season where the Redbacks reached the final of the B Grade National Championships in Melbourne, and the club welcomed an array of new players from far and wide, we gathered together on July 15th 2015 to play the end of season match friendly followed by the eagerly awaited annual awards night!

The friendly match drew in a good crowd of both experienced and new players including an appearance from Clinton and Bec (original members of SCRKC) to welcoming new faces Ian and Ben (both keen Korfers playing on the international scene). It was great to have some full court action both for the new players to experience a full game, and for the more experienced players to pull out a move or 2. We had so much fun that the score didn’t matter and we announced the match a tie!

In need of a beer we continued on to the Local Taphouse in Darlinghurst for the most important aspect of the day the 2014/2015 Awards Night, hosted by none other than Team G and the Club President Victoria Wah.

In an unprecedented move, Sydney Redbacks entered two teams into the B Grade competition, evenly split with the hope of both teams being competitive. Debuts were handed to Simon, Will, Elise, Daniel and Ben; in addition to late injury sub Josh who stepped in from the sidelines for the last game.
