Hockey Report
Guyra 2nd grade faced Albies in a midweek clash. With youth and speed on the Albies side Guyra came prepared with plenty of subs to combat the onslaught.
Taking hold of the game early, and with Nat Mendes as a defensive mid turning any Albies attack around, Guyra was able to secure the lead.
Credit to the Albies goalie who put in a solid performance to keep Guyra ladies to only one goal. A card was given out at this match but not to a Guyra player, our record remains clean for 2026. Special mention to Racheal, our newest Guyra supporter and bearer of oranges.
Reminder Junior Hockey starts their hockey competition this Saturday 2nd May. If anyone is interested in playing come to training on Wednesday 3.30-4.45pm at the Showground Hall and discuss with Aimee Lenehan or Sarah Cox.

Sunday Golf
On Sunday a large and generous crowd competed for the Hockey Ambrose in conjunction for a Fundraiser for Frankie Patterson, the daughter of Cody and Alyssa Patterson. This turned out to be a big success with conditions perfect and the crowd out for a good time. (for results see back page).
Thank you to the Guyra Bowling Club for donating the Green fees for the day which was an awesome donation and a very kind anonymous donation by a local person which is very much appreciated plus other kind donations.
Thank you to all the businesses that donated all the prizes for the day and to everyone who participated and donated for the day it really says a lot for our community. This is a great town and when there is a local in need we always seem to band together and help out in any little way that we can.
To Frankie, Cody and Alyssa and all of your families, good luck with everything that lies ahead and know you are in the thoughts and prayers of everybody in Guyra
This Sunday is a Junior Day so we ask all children Under 18 with or without a handicaps to come along. Tee off will be 10.30 am Sunday
