Our team, although they were under many handicaps in their first year of Class P Competition and lost many games, they were a hard hitting, determined bunch and never took a beating lying down. Our team took their wins and losses with equal pride for they had faith as we had faith, that when another season opens, Alexander Park will be more able to cope with their more experienced rivals. T are proud of the fine group of boys who played so hard for us this season.
