Number 15 in 101 good,bad and ugly things of Cobar:







So number 15 today is : People coming to town. Way back in June, when it was the rugby league season. The David Peachy foundation in conjuction with NSW Country Rugby Leauge came to Cobar and did a footy clinic. This was fantastic. Not only were they promoting the sport, and healthy issues, the clinic was open to under 5yr olds.




This is usually unheared of for most sports.




When I had my first child I was quite easily able to manipulate her into doing things I wanted her to do. However 2nd born wants to do what 1st born does, and usually with sport one has to be 6 and older. So telling him NO he can not join in has been on occasion a nighmare. So imagine my surprise when I saw the ad in the paper saying they were going to do an under 5's footy clinic.




Here was a "boy" sport that he could do.




This was a fun couple of hours and it's good to see that there are some sports people out there who have not forgotten their roots. So a big gold star to David Peachy and his foundation for remembering that there are kids in the bush as well as city kids that like to play footy!!!

  1. Giant blow up echidnas with santa hats on...just a thought. The lights look great and having an elf to light the tea lights was a genius idea. Ooops that was your Dad! Merry Christmas to all!
