Thunder Division 2 and 4 teams in Community League grand finals
Brad Walter
Thirroul's Division 2 and Division 4 Amateur teams will play the grand finals of their Community League competitions on Saturday at Ian McLennan Park.
The Thunder Division 2 team meet Sandon Point at 11.30am in what is a fitting finale to the season for two groups of players who have formed a close bond since the tragic passing of Antony Stott, while the Thunder Blue team play Vale Pups in the Division 4 decider at 9am.
Both teams qualified after winning their semi-finals last Saturday, with Division 2 beating Jamberoo Rovers 2-1 and Division 4 coming from 2-0 down to triumph 3-2 against Razorbacks.
The hopes of an all-Thirroul grand final in Division 3 were dashed when both teams were beaten by the narrowest margins in their semi-finals, with Gibson Park Rangers losing 2-1 to Albion Park City and Thunder White going down 1-0 to South Coast United Blue.
However, with the club's four Amateur teams making the finals, it has been a season for which all the players deserve to be congratulated after the difficult circumstances they have endured.
Best of luck to Thunder Division 2 and Thunder Blue in their grand finals on Saturday.
