On Saturday, the Whitsunday Sea Eagles were back on home turf at The Nest, where players, supporters, and volunteers came together for another fantastic day of football. Taking on three opposition clubs, the Sea Eagles continued their strong form and celebrated victories in three of the four matches played. The day was capped off with a sunset BBQ following the senior men's game, providing the perfect opportunity for the competing clubs to come together and celebrate another successful weekend of football in the region.
The Under 13s took on the Mackay Magpies in a nail-biting contest. After a slow scoring first half, the young Sea Eagles lifted their intensity and fought their way back into the game. Despite their determined effort, they fell just short, going down by three points with a final score of 25–28.
The Under 15s battled the North Mackay Saints in an impressive display of selfless team football. Maintaining a steady lead throughout the match, the Sea Eagles stuck to their game plan and were rewarded with the club's first win of the day, defeating the Saints 47–39.
The senior women's side celebrated a well-earned victory over the Moranbah Bulldogs. After an evenly contested first half, the Sea Eagles dug deep and came out firing in the third quarter, slotting three unanswered goals to take control of the match. Their strong finish secured a convincing 19-point win over the Bulldogs.
The senior men's team also took on the Moranbah Bulldogs in a thrilling contest. Trailing for much of the game, the Sea Eagles refused to give in and shifted into top gear in the final quarter, booting five goals to turn the match in their favour. The impressive comeback secured a 16-point victory, finishing with a final score of 89–73 and keeping their finals hopes alive.
