The Bush Cats announced the club’s decision to go into recess on social media tonight, citing an inability to attract enough players to field competitive sides.

"It is with great regret and much consideration that the Ardmona Football Netball Club has made the difficult decision to go into recess for the 2022 season,“ the club said in its statement.

“The club has struggled to secure enough players to field a side that would be competitive this year.

“The committee is going into this recess with a firm plan to return in 2023 with a strong junior development plan and with coaching and admin staff that will attract a competitive and enthusiastic group of players.

“We realise this will be very hard news to take for our loyal Ardy Army but rest assured that 2023 will see the Bush Cats back bigger and better than ever!”

More to come.
