Golden goal at the Onemda soccer program

Post Created: 17 September 2024

This week Onemda was privileged to be a part of an extremely rewarding day out, showcasing our 2024 Soccer Program!

A big thank you goes out to our amazing participants, families, and supporters who made this event such a success.



Our participants took to the field at Manningham's Petty's Reserve for a soccer demonstration, proudly showing off the skills they've been learning throughout the program. It was wonderful to see their energy, determination, and love for the game!

After the demonstration, we all gathered for a celebratory morning tea, where Ian Goldsmith from Bendigo Bank presented our participants with medals of participation. The excitement and joy on their faces said it all! Special thanks to Bendigo Bank - Doncaster East and Templestowe Village branches for their generous grant funding through the Community Enterprise Foundation, making this program possible.

This program has brought together participants from across our campuses, fostering friendships, improving fitness, and creating unforgettable memories. We're also incredibly grateful to our partners, Manningham United Blues Soccer Club, for their ongoing support and for encouraging diversity and accessibility in the world of soccer.

Thank you to our soccer coaches from DOC Football Academy, for your dedication, and to all the families, Onemda staff, and Manningham Council representatives who joined us today. It’s partnerships like these that enrich the lives of our participants and strengthen our community spirit.

We’re excited for what’s next!
