Jubilee Year

Nineteen-sixty-nine is going to be a great year for the Gisborne Old Boys' Football Club. This year they celebrate their golden jubilee and over Queen's Birthday weekend, when the celebrations take place, there will be some great games replayed and some great stories told. Up until June we will be bringing you pictures of teams from yesteryear and personalities connected with the club at various times.

The club didn't do too badly last year for a start. They won the Premier Cup and the Efficiency Competition.
