PRESIDENT’S WORDS

A big welcome to Murdoch Park for this evening’s fixture of the Northern Regional Football League Division 1; 1st and reserve teams playing against Manurewa A.F.C.

In the league standings at this time, both 1st teams sit side by side and all it takes is a win to move away from the relegation zone.

This will make for an enthralling encounter, for there will be a must willingness in all players to have a prepared attitude and give 100% to the final whistle in this game.

Only one outcome is wanted. WIN

Over the years there have been some great entertaining games played between our two proud South Auckland clubs. The history and heritage goes deep, as do the supporters. On game day there is rivalry but afterwards most know each other from the football community and the camaraderie and hospitality begins.

The powerhouse days have gone and I do hope for both clubs’ sake, we build and rise up to be frontrunners again. It may take time, but both clubs need to be present and strong in this Football Federation competition.

As Club President I give a huge thank you to our club committee and all member volunteers who week in week out strive to keep our club operations running smoothly, from junior youth to senior divisions. Very integral to PAPATOETOE A.F.C. in keeping this sound football club established.

To our sponsors, we greatly acknowledge your contribution to PAPATOETOE A.F.C., you have all helped our club in many ways, and I do wish for these partnerships to continue in years to come.

To club patrons, life members, members and visitors, I hope you enjoy this evening’s match fixtures and hospitality that follows inside our clubrooms.

We welcome Manurewa A.F.C. coaching staff, players and supporters – enjoy your games and our after match hospitality.

P.S. A Manurewa member named us the

“MIGHTY MURDOCH PARK” WHO?

Played a season for us under Peter Kelly as coach.

COACH’S COMMENTS

Good evening all and welcome to this very big clash for both sides. Not only is this game important for the survival of both teams in Division 1 and to avoid relegation but also hold the bragging rights between the two clubs and South Auckland.

We have had two fixtures since I last wrote and they were at home against Metro and away last week to Ellerslie.

The Metro game was a game very important to us. Having a game in hand on them and being just 3 points behind them we knew we would want to get the points on offer. Metro knew as well just how important this game was for them also. As the game panned both ways however with Metro taking the shots they had on offer they came away with the win and claimed the points to push themselves that bit further away from relegation.

Last week against Ellerslie we knew we would be up for a battle. Ellerslie are sitting well within the promotion hunt and would want to take the points in this game to keep within the hunt and be a contender. To the game itself and the early stages of the first half looked ok with the score being locked at 0-0. However just before halftime Ellerslie snatched a goal and went in at half 1 up. We knew that if we come out in the second half and score an early equalizer we could go on and have a good battle to take the game however Ellerslie went on to score 2 more goals and win 3-0.

To today’s game and what is looked on as the important game for both teams not only is it the local derby game but more importantly both teams are vying to take the 3 points to push clear of relegation. We have worked hard in training this week to beset for this one and I am sure Manurewa have been as well. I am sure the lads will want to go out and give it 100% and do the job needed and come away at the end of 90 minutes with the 3 points.

I can assure you will be in for an exciting tussle this evening between two clubs with such deep history and heritage within South Auckland and that both teams will show the pride they have for their suburbs as well as clubs.

I would like to again thank you the supporters who come down week in week out to support the boys. Enjoy the game and see you all afterwards in the bar. Paul Margison (Margee)/ Hans Anema

RESERVE TEAM

Welcome everyone to Murdoch Park and and a very warm welcome to the Manurewa players and supporters.

Today will be an exciting day, as both clubs, with a long and proud history of football in South Auckland, are in an interesting position, where every point will count and every chance missed on the field will hurt. We'll both want to win, and although being near neighbours, on the field no love will be lost. Off the field will, I hope, be a different story as we share a beer together at the end of the game.

In the Reserves game, we will certainly be trying to make it two out of two. Time and again, we have proven that when we make the effort, we can achieve results when we focus.

Last week we played at Ellerslie at the same time of day, and certainly we lost our focus in the first half when we let in 3 goals. I think the amount of times we got into their half could almost count on our fingers. This wasn't helped by having players not turn up, leaving us weak up front. We can only put on the team we have, as they say, and it helps if we know who is turning up. But we also knew we had one or two players who couldn't turn up, and when Rarotonga beckons, you've got to go.

After a bit of a rev up from Ingo at half time, we certainly picked up our game, and although we let one more in, we looked like we could've got something out of the game, if we had played with some heart in the first half. Let's hope we bring some of that into today's game

JUNIOR REPORT

First Kicks 5TH & 6TH Grade

For most of us it has been the first season with Papatoetoe AFC. The club has been friendly and very welcoming; there is so much passion among parents to develop young children to be the best they could be. Set of games and activities put together by NZ Football was a great way to get these kids started and get them interested. With support of Chelsea and Tayla and kids’ parents, I have ensured that every child entering the club and taking part in training and games has had fun and a rewarding experience at every stage while developing their skills as football players.

Our first kicks had exposure to indoor soccer at Action Sport Manukau.

We will be taking the 6th grade to an Invitational Tournament on 17th August at Three Kings United. I am very pleased to be involved with the club with such diverse ethnicity and awesome children. Since taking responsibility of looking after the first kicks, I have committed myself to put in full effort in developing the junior sparks of today to become Stars of football in future.

Congratulations Saja Tautua

Papatoetoe AFC Juniors are proud to inform the club that Saja Tautua of the 12th Grade Lightning team, has made the AFF Football Talent Centre training squad. Saja is a very talented and hardworking player who aspires to play at the highest level. His teammates, family and friends (and coaches) are very proud of him.

His teammate Faaris Khan was called back for a second trial but was unfortunately unsuccessful.

Well done to both players from all at Papatoetoe AFC.

WOMEN’S UPDATE

Girls On Film

The NRFL Women’s Premier Division game between Papaoteotoe AFC and Fencibles United was filmed by Television New Zealand Cameraman Justin Moore. The Reds came out on top with a resounding 2-0 victory. Papatoetoe AFC would like to say a huge thanks to Justin for his time and effort.

Justin has been an operator for TVNZ since training as a cameraman seven years ago. Justin is an avid football player himself, though the 28-year-old admits his skills haven’t seen him progress past the social scene.

The club will use the footage for training purposes and club promotions – keep an eye out for footage of the game and other promotional videos that will be uploaded to our YouTube Channel in the coming weeks.

National Women’s U20s Club Championship

Papatoetoe AFC is happy to announce that they will be competing in the upcoming National Women’s U20s Club Championship at the end of November. The 16-Team Tournament will be hosted by Stop Out Sports Club, Lower Hutt, and will take place on November 29th, 30th and December 1st.

Players born on or after January 1st 1994 will be eligible, meaning that Papatoetoe AFC will have a strong squad to travel to Wellington with the majority of our Premier Squad being Under 20s.

Goodbye and Good Luck:Tessa Popay

Papatoetoe AFC is set to say goodbye to Women's Senior Squad member Tessa Popay as she heads to the US to complete her PhD in Biomedical Science. Tessa was the Captain of the first ever Papatoetoe AFC NRFL Women's Premier Team before she was injured, and all at the club wish her the best of luck.

WOMEN’S UPDATE

Women's Div 3 Cougars VS Lynn Avon

This game was always going to be a close one as we are lying in 2nd spot and Lynn Avon on 3rd but winning well. We went into the game with players missing due to other commitments but we were still able to put out a strong side with our part-timers helping out.

Lynn Avon had the surprise of having a couple of well established former NZ Reps in their side but the team were ready for anything. The first half was close and end to end with the only good chance coming from us. This was started by a good pass from Charlotte in the midfield splitting the defence and Cherie using her pace to beat the defenders and provide a cut-back to the waiting Trudi to slot the ball home.

The second half started as it had finished in the first and although we had dominated a bit more this half we were still unable to get any more goals, although on the other hand they were unable to break down our new defence team of Jess, Kat and Cindy. This result now puts us as firm 2nd spot and opened up a 10 point gap between us and Lynn Avon.

The game ended in a 1-nil win to us with special mentions to Jody playing in goal, Trudi with her leadership but Player of the day went to Jess, leading the backline. This weekend we are away to Onehunga Sports at Waikaraka Park where we hope to continue our winning ways.

AFFWomen’s Division 2 Team Week 12 - 20th of July, 2014 - Away vs. Bay Olympic

Two weeks of postponed games really took its toll on Papatoetoe AFC Division 2 Ladies last weekend, suffering a 2-0 loss to Bay Olympic at Olympic Park. In the first round, Bay Olympic was the only team Papatoetoe was able to take all three points from. This time though, it took 20 minutes of Papatoetoe struggling for possession before we switched on and started to contest more for the ball. Even against the physicality of Bay Olympic, Papatoetoe were able to hold them off, keeping the score line at 0-0 until the end of the first-half.

Even with the return of Lyric Wilson as goalkeeper after a few weeks out from injury, Bay Olympic’s greater drive for the win enabled them to complete two break-away goals during the second-half. However, the time off since the last game at the end of June showed in our reduced match-fitness, and a come-back was not on the cards this week. Xian Li, who has been a key player in the midfield this season, displayed a strong performance out on the wing, garnering her Player of the Day. Final score 0-2.
