VALE REX KAY
United Yeelanna Football & Netball Club extends our deepest sympathies to the Kay family following the passing of Rex Kay, a Life Member of UYFC since 1985. Rex's connection to the club spanned more than six decades. He first pulled on the blue and gold as a player in 1964–1967, including as part of the 1964 B Grade premiership team, before giving countless years of service to the club in almost every role imaginable. Mini Colts Coach — 1970–1974 Colts Trainer — 1970–1975

ROUND 15 | LAST HOME GAME OF THE SEASON
And just like that, our final home game of the 2026 minor round is in the books. It was a gorgeous sunny day at The Koo, with plenty of important footy and netball played as we head into the final stretch of the minor round. With just one game remaining, every point matters as teams battle it out for their finals positions. Thank you to everyone who pulled on the blue and gold, cheered from the sidelines, volunteered, umpired, coached, scored, ran the canteen, worked the gate

ROUND 13 | UYFNC vs COUGARS
Another Saturday at The Koo is in the books, and while the results didn't quite fall our way, it was still everything we love about country sport. Winter certainly put on a show today, treating us to showers, bursts of sunshine and a spectacular rainbow stretching across the Karkoo sky during the afternoon. A huge congratulations to Matt Crettenden, who celebrated his 150th game in the blue and gold today. Matt has been an outstanding servant of UYFC, and it was wonderful to

250 GAMES — AARON "SNAG" WATSON
This weekend we celebrate an incredible milestone as Aaron "Snag" Watson runs out for his 250th game in the blue and gold... and by the time the weekend is over, he'll have quietly ticked over 251 games! Snag is the definition of a quiet achiever. He doesn't say a lot, preferring to let his football do the talking—and for 250 games, it's been saying plenty. Silky with the footy, almost impossible to beat one-on-one and always happy to sell a little bit of candy before deliver

150 GAMES — MATTHEW "MATT" CRETTENDEN
This weekend we celebrate 150 games in the blue and gold for one of the competition's most courageous footballers — Matthew "Matt" Crettenden. If you've ever watched Matt play, you'll know one thing for certain... get him the ball and he will get the goal! Whether it's flying back with the flight of the ball, crashing a pack, or throwing himself at a contest most players wouldn't go near, Matt's courage is second to none. In fact, he's occasionally been known to be just as da

ROUND 13 INCOMING
We're finally back at The Koo! Round 13 sees us welcome Cougars to Karkoo for what promises to be another day of tough, hard-fought football and netball. We've already had some fantastic contests against Cougars this season, and we're expecting more of the same this Saturday. Every ball will be contested, every goal will matter, and we're looking forward to seeing all our Eagles teams embrace the challenge. It also feels like it's been a while since we've enjoyed a home game,

THE HANCOCK HAT TRICK
Saturday's A Reserves game at Elliston may not have gone our way on the scoreboard, but it was a day the Hancock family will never forget. For the very first time, Club Life Member Kate Hancock lined up alongside both of her daughters, Ellie-Mae and Kenzie, in netball match. To make the moment even more special, the trio shared the attack end in the opening quarter, with Ellie-Mae at Centre, Kate at Wing Attack and Kenzie at Goal Shooter. It was one of those moments that had

Round 12 results
Another big day for the Eagles, with all grades making the trip to Elliston to take on the Elliston Districts Roosters. It wasn't our day in the netball or junior football, with every side falling short. There were some heartbreaking close losses, but the effort, determination and spirit shown across the day was something to be proud of. Keep working hard – the results will come. Our senior footballers flew the flag, with both the B Grade and A Grade returning home with valua
