After the disappointment of City Oval early on Easter Monday morning I pedalled all the way to Redan Oval (about two blocks away) looking for a scoreboard that wasn’t electronic/digital and wasn’t hidden by a bloody rollerdoor.
Fortunately the Redan scoreboard was neither. ‘Haven’t seen many scoreboards with a cream brick backdrop.
If I’d had the panniers on the pushbike I could have brought along some spare numbers but, alas, not this time. And the weight would have slowed down my Tour de Scoreboards.
Redan Oval was a nice counterpoint to the grandiosity of City Oval.
Lots more about Redan Football Club, a very strong team in the Ballarat league.
And a very strong women’s football club, also.
