Mansfield Football Netball Club recently came together to celebrate a successful year on the field and on the court.
The Eagles Seniors had much to celebrate having returned to finals footy in 2025 after narrowly missing out in 2024.
The Reserve and Junior footballers showed plenty of promise vindicating the Eagles' determination to prioritise creating vertical pathways for talent through the age groups.
And the netball department, having described itself as in the transitional period of a rebuild at the beginning of the year celebrated strong, competitive showing and wins on the board across the age groups.
Congratulations to every one who battled away wearing an Eagles badge this year and to everyone whose hard work behind the scenes made it all possible.
2026 is sure to be an exciting season for football and netball in Mansfield.
