When was the Positive or it's pointless campaign introduced?

The Positive or it's Pointless campaign is an initiative originally developed by the Australian Football League (AFL) under the banner "Positive or Pointless".

The four Brisbane based junior football codes (AFL Brisbane, Brisbane Junior Rugby Union, Football Brisbane and Greater Brisbane Junior Rugby League) got together in 2008 to address shared problems and adapted the campaign for a wider audience.

The Department of Communities funded the extended Positive or it's pointless campaign, which was rolled out in 2009.

WR Baseball Academy Starts again soon!

WRBA RETURNS FOR 2012

Registration forms will be available at the club trophy presentation day (March 24^th), at the July club sign-on, and are available electronically below.

Following a successful kickoff in 2011, the Windsor Royals Baseball Academy will return in 2012 – bigger and better! Running for 15 weeks from August until mid-November on Monday evenings, the academy will now include both U12/U14 (5-7pm) and U16/U18 (6:30-8:30 pm) age groups. Headed by former Olympian and Australian player Tony Thomson and former Brisbane Bandit Captain and now current Bandit Coach, and Windsor Junior Development officer Shayne Watson, the Academy will focus on developing baseball skills, fitness and having fun.

Here’s what we have planned for 2012.

Windsor Royals Field Hire Costs

The Committee has agreed to the following subsidised charges for any organisation that wants to use the main diamond where Windsor Royals players are apart of the group.

6 hours = $80 (daytime only - no lights)
3 hours = $50 (daytime only - no lights)
3 hours = $110 (night time with lights)
2 hours = $30 (daytime only - no lights)

Normal charges are:

6 hours = $250 (daytime only - no lights)
3 hours = $180 (night time with lights)

There are considerable costs associated with maintaining a main diamond and the more the field gets used the more it costs.

Availability will be dependant on scheduled and sanctioned WR games and training sessions - these will always have priority.

Special Thanks to the Brisbane City Council

In the past few months the BCC have done a lot of repair and maintanance work at the Windsor Royals Club.

The work done has been invaluable to the club by reducing considerable future costs associated with running a sporting facility.

The Club and every member has and will benefit from everything the Brisbane City Council has done for us.

Even though much of the work that was completed has gone unnoticed, the actual amount of work completed is considerable.

Thank you very much to the Brisbane City Council and the builders "Box & Co" for everything they have done.
