PROGRAM ANNOUNCED FOR 2012 At the annual general meeting of the Barossa, Light & Gawler Football Association at the Vine Inn, Nuriootpa, it was decided that the 2012 match programme would start on April 21. (It is interesting to note that the two 2011 A Grade grand finalists will confront each other in the first round of the season) Barossa District will host their first two matches of the season at Lyndoch against South Gawler and then Angaston on April 28. Angaston will have the first bye of the season and Kapunda the last. Finals will be held at Freeling, Willaston and Tanunda with Barossa District hosting the Grand Final (venue to be decided) on September 22. The finals will again be over four weeks. A "Safety Round" and "Cancer Council Call To Arms" round will again be played. All teams will have a bye for the annual Zone Championships on June 30-July 1. Nobby Symes was re elected unopposed as President. Mick Brien and Len Warren were re-elected unopposed as Directors. Other appointments were Nick Hambour, Dr. Clive Behrndt, Brian Menzel and John and Elva Falland as patrons. Gerhardy & Whitelum as auditors.
