Rangers celebrate special milestones
RANGERS Soccer Club celebrated some special milestones recently, including Cameron Pyke’s 350th club game.
Unfortunately, Pyke’s day wasn’t topped off with a win – the senior men’s division one side went down 1-0 to the Corangamite Lions.
Scotts Creek Reserve also saw the defeat of the senior men reserves 3-2 and a 1-0 defeat for the senior women.
In the under 12 competition, Rangers blue defeated Port Fairy Plovers 5-2 at Southcombe Park while Rangers Teal returned from Portland after a 3-1 loss.
Rangers Blue under 14 played on Hamilton’s new pitch and easily defeated Hamilton Raiders 7-0 while Rangers Teal are now on top of the league ladder after a 2-0 win over the Warrnambool Wolves at Harris Street.
At Jones Oval on Saturday morning there was a 25-year celebration of Miniroos and Mini Tillies as the Rangers recorded the signing of the 104th registered player for this season.
This is a huge achievement for coach John Berg and all his assistant junior coaches.
The Rangers’ affiliation with Jones Oval is coming to an end, with the move to Brierly Recreation Reserve next season.
