Lower Hutt Mayor, David Ogden officially opened our new Hutt Park facilities.

To concide with the Stop Out Women's 7's the event brought a gathering of many in the Stop Out family of past & present players and supporters.

Mayor Ogden is one of our club Patrons and played for Sop Out in his "younger days". He also served on the club's committee.

Jim McCreadie was on hand to help with proceedings.

Our major Sponsor FREEHEAT is once again supporting the club.

It's a major boost to have FREEHEAT back on board as 2008 shapes up to be one of the most exciting at Stop Out for many years.

With a new Director of Football, the Seaview Recycling Football College up and running, the redevelopment of our playing fields and new changing sheds at Hutt Park, Coaching Development programmes already planned there's plenty of new initiatives for this season!
