Sportsmanship strong in juniors

IF ever you needed a reminder of the spirit in junior sport, look no further than Sunday's under 11 Dandenong District Junior Football League contest between Narre North Foxes and Fountain Gate. The thrilling clash ended in a draw, with Fountain Gate finishing on 2.8.20 and the Foxes managing 3.2.20. Draws are generally associated with an extremely hollow after-match feeling, but the teams' coaches put paid to that. At the coaches' urging, players from both sides linked arms and sang their respective songs as they exited the field in a fantastic show of sportsmanship.IF ever you needed a reminder of the spirit in junior sport, look no further than Sunday’s under 11 Dandenong District Junior Football League contest between Narre North Foxes and Fountain Gate.
