Newtown Rugby League Football Club - Established 1908
Family day at Henson Park

A feast of football, fun for the kids & Syd the Pig

It might have been France's National Day, but the Champs-Élysées celebrations would have paled before the fun and excitement of Family Day at grand old Henson Park.

Jets photographer, Gary Sutherland, was everywhere with his camera on the day. Below are just a few of his photos of the day's happenings.

See more of Syd, and relive the family day and football highlights in Gary's photo gallery.

Kids colouring competition

And the winners are...

By Emma Sciberras who has been coming to Henson
since she was 6 weeks old! By 9 year old Jet Campbell By 3½ year old Piper

Face painting

The children looked quite fearsome with their royal blue makeup!

No guessing who this young enthusiast supported!!!!

Syd the Pig

As you can see from the photos, the kids weren't the only ones who admired SCU's mascot, Syd the Pig. Syd provided strong support for the football team too!

Syd held long philosophical discussions with his admirers mid-pitch at half time.
Pigs make a lot of sense when you listen carefully and their jokes are top class! Syd and Jets head trainer and penny farthing specialist,
John Trad, welcomed the team back after half-time
