Trinity Aquinas Break Drought Over Scarborough

Was witness to a little bit of Western Australian Amateur Football League (WAAFL) history today at Bassendean Oval when Trinity Aquinas defeated Scarborough in a very tightly and tough contested grand final match. Trinity Aquinas won the game 7.14-56 to 6.8-44 with a scare in the last quarter almost saw Scarborough clinch the match. But Trinity-Aquinas were too strong in the end and through their strong performance in the 3rd quarter did just enough to hold on to the win to break the drought.
There was a decent crowd at Bassendean Oval today as there were colts and reserves on earlier so a few did stick around to watch the league game. Entry was 10 for adults and 5 for concession so it wasn't too bad to fork this money out for amateurs, very much like NPL. Drinks were 3 dollars for soft drinks, spirits were 10 dollars and beer was 8 dollars. They had VB, Carlton Draught, Pure Blonde & Carlton Mid. The usual spirits were the pre-mixed stuff so was Smirnoff, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam and Bundaberg Rum.

Was a good day at the football to watch some amateur football, especially since the last time I watched a game was at this ground some 20 years ago to watch a combined Balcatta-Osborne Park side win their first title.
