As you all may be aware Harpers Field and the Golden Grove Football Club have a proud history relating to the naming of Harpers Field in honour of the Harper Brothers who lost their lives in World War 1.We honour this history by representing them each year at the Dawn Service at the Tea Tree Gully RSL.Each year we have participated we have asked representatives of our Junior Premiership grades to lay a wreath when called up by the President of the RSL.If you wish to join us, we meet at 5.20am in front of the TTG Hotel, we then walk down to the TTG RSL as a group wearing our GGFC colours, and then after the service this year we are all going back to the Club where there will be breakfast of Bacon & Egg rolls on offer for $5, players are welcome to play football on the oval, and also the bar will be open for a short time from 8am so the parents can enjoy friendship and tradition in the spirit of Anzac Day.
It's baaaaack!!GGFC's favourite night of the year returns for it's seventh episode. Join us on Saturday 4 May for the Shuffle Night's Hip-Hop / RnB Night!
