Congratulations to Ben Naughton, who will play his 50th Senior match this weekend at Arkaba Oval v Onkas.
Coming into seniors, Ben has improved dramatically over the last few seasons, to find himself 2022 Vice Captain. A heart and soul player who is superb at finding his own space around the ground. Ben has found a niche as a damaging forward that seems to fly under the radar with the opposition, taking little time in the forward 50 to make his mark.
Not only do the senior boys love being around this guy, Ben has spent time working with the Junior Colts this year and our junior program and Auskick over the years. A true community football lad and a Devil to be proud of.
Congrats on your 50 Benjamin! Give ‘em Hell this weekend.
Our U17 Girls will play a prelim final on Sunday in Mt Barker after a MASSIVE win last Sunday in the elimination final via a goal after the siren.
Meanwhile our Senior Men’s match on Saturday will be live streamed from Arkaba Oval at 2.30pm by Filming Footy and Call of the Wild. It’s a big day at Arkaba Oval on Saturday with many of our HFL juniors and seniors playing at home, featuring the Chairman’s Lunch during the day with Guest Speaker Dizzy Gillespie!
It’s the final minor round for our SANFL Juniors teams on Sunday, with our U15 Girls guaranteed a top of the ladder finish and our U13 Girls currently sitting 2nd.
In our Mt Lofty TEAMS competition for the Toyota Good 4 Footy Raffle, the U13 Girls are still leading with $685 worth of ticket sales so far, but the U16 Boys team is making a late charge with $310 worth of ticket sales.
Can the U16 Boys beat the U13 Girls? Can the U15 Girls make a comeback (still sitting on $190 in sales)? Can another team challenge for the prize?
The team that raises the most money in the Good 4 Footy Raffle using their unique link (see below), will win a $200 voucher to spend at the Aldgate Pump Hotel.
In addition, all money raised goes towards our new digital scoreboard AND you could win a car!
It’s a HUGE weekend for the Devils, with our Senior Women playing a semi final, our U17 Girls playing an elimination final and our Moddies teams playing their last round of the season.
Meanwhile, it’s round 16 for our Mens and HFL Juniors teams who are away at Echunga on Saturday.
There is some action at Arkaba Oval on Friday night, with our U11 Whites playing at 6pm, our U11 Reds playing at 7pm, and our U15 Girls playing at 8pm.
