Celebrating Our Community: Achievements and Milestones
At Osc Norfolk SC, we believe in celebrating every success, big or small. It's not just about the goals on the pitch; it's about the milestones we achieve as a community. This month, we want to give a massive shout-out to Sarah Jenkins, our dedicated volunteer coordinator, who recently celebrated her 10th anniversary with the club! Sarah's tireless efforts behind the scenes have been instrumental in organizing our volunteer teams, from matchday stewards to youth team support. Her passion and commitment are truly second to none, and we’re incredibly lucky to have her. Many happy returns, Sarah! We also want to congratulate Mark Peterson and his team for successfully completing the Tough Mudder Challenge last weekend. They not only conquered the grueling course but also raised an impressive £2,500 for our club’s youth academy. Their grit, determination, and team spirit were on full display, and we’re so proud of their achievement and their contribution to nurturing future talent. Speaking of nurturing talent, the Osc Norfolk SC Women’s team has reached the semi-finals of the County Cup! This is a historic achievement for the team, and we’re all behind them as they prepare for their biggest match of the season. Their journey has been filled with incredible performances, and they’ve inspired so many young girls to get involved in football. Let’s get out there and cheer them on to victory! On a different note, we had a fantastic turnout for our annual Community Fun Day last Saturday. It was a day filled with laughter, games, and fantastic food, bringing together families from across Norfolk. The kids loved the bouncy castle and face painting, while the adults enjoyed the barbecue and the chance to mingle. Events like these are the heart and soul of Osc Norfolk SC, strengthening our bonds and reminding us why we love being part of this club. We’re already planning next year’s event, and it’s going to be even bigger and better. We also want to highlight the incredible fundraising efforts of David Lee, who recently ran a marathon to raise money for new training equipment. David, a lifelong fan, dedicated months to his training and completed the race in an amazing time, raising over £1,500. His dedication is a testament to the passion that runs deep within our supporter base. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a significant difference. We’re continuously looking for ways to improve our facilities and support our players, and your contributions are vital to that mission. Finally, a special mention goes to our Over 30s team for winning their league title last season. Their consistent performance and team camaraderie are an inspiration to us all. They proved that age is just a number when you have passion and dedication. We’re proud of all these achievements and more, and we look forward to celebrating many more successes with you all in the coming months. Keep up the great work, everyone!
Remembering Our Departed: Obituaries and Tributes
It’s with heavy hearts that we sometimes have to say goodbye to members of the Osc Norfolk SC family. These individuals have left an indelible mark on our club, and we want to take this moment to remember them and pay our respects. Obituaries are a solemn part of our community’s narrative, reminding us of the lives that have touched ours and the legacy they leave behind. Today, we are deeply saddened by the passing of Arthur Pendelton, a true legend of Osc Norfolk SC. Arthur was a cornerstone of the club for over fifty years, serving as a player, coach, and later as a respected committee member. His wisdom, dedication, and unwavering support for the club were unparalleled. Many of our current senior players owe their development to Arthur’s guidance during his coaching tenure. He had a unique ability to inspire confidence and foster a love for the game in everyone he mentored. His booming laugh could often be heard echoing around the grounds on match days, and his absence will be profoundly felt by all who knew him. We extend our deepest condolences to Arthur’s family and friends during this difficult time. We are also mourning the loss of Eleanor Vance, a devoted supporter and a familiar face at every home game for the past thirty years. Eleanor was known for her infectious enthusiasm and her unwavering loyalty to Osc Norfolk SC. She never missed a match, rain or shine, and her constant encouragement from the stands was a source of great motivation for the players. She was more than just a spectator; she was a vital part of the Osc Norfolk SC family, embodying the true spirit of our club. Her warm smile and kind words will be dearly missed by everyone at the club. Our thoughts are with Eleanor’s loved ones as they navigate this period of grief. In these times of sorrow, it’s important for us to come together as a community, to support one another, and to cherish the memories we shared with those we’ve lost. We will be organizing a memorial event in the coming weeks to celebrate the lives of Arthur and Eleanor and to allow everyone to share their tributes and memories. Details will be announced shortly. We encourage anyone who wishes to share their own memories or condolences to do so in the comments section below or by reaching out to the club office. Sharing these stories helps keep their spirit alive within Osc Norfolk SC. We believe that remembering our departed friends and colleagues strengthens our community by reminding us of the shared experiences and deep connections that bind us together. Their contributions, whether on or off the field, have shaped Osc Norfolk SC into the club it is today, and their legacy will continue to inspire us. We stand united in grief and in remembrance, honoring the individuals who have played such a significant role in the history of our club. Their memory will forever be a part of Osc Norfolk SC.
