Team Report
The SAE 13’s have once again proved that they are a resilient bunch of boys. The 2016 season was challenging for them as it is for all teams this age because it is their first season on a full size field playing 11 a-side.
The boys coped admirably and adjusted to the change better than expected. The training schedule at SAE gets the players together 3 times a week with an optional 4th session for all 4 terms of the year.
I thank the boys for the work that they are putting into being the best football players possible and hope their love for football continues.
Mark Atkinson (Coach)

Team Report
Wow, what a season the Torpedoes had this season. This was my first season as a coach at Drury United, so my goal for the season was mid-table. To my surprise, going into the last competition game, we still had a chance to finish first equal in the division.
I am really happy with how the team has come together and jelled as a unit, also how their attitudes have changed this season towards each other and the game itself. I am looking forward to returning next season to coach this team again.
I would like to thank all the parents and families for their positive support towards the team throughout the season. A big thanks to Stacey Pope for becoming a CBR this season and taking on referee duties whether home or away, leaving me to concentrate on coaching.
Also a big thanks goes to the team manager Deanna Penney who has gone above and beyond this season making flash little posters with game day info and little write ups on the players of the days and all the day to day running of the team behind the scenes.

Team Report
It has been a challenging season this year for this talented team. Lack of training through tumultuous weather and the coach suffering a career ending knee injury have taken its toll, but the fact is we could’ve won this league.
We are technically the best team in the league and it is disappointing that a run of 4 draws has seen the top spot slip away from us. It is also frustrating to see the league won by Bucklands Beach who we beat convincingly in grading and then were dominant in a desperately unlucky 2-2 draw in the regular season.
However, I am immensely proud and grateful for the opportunity to coach this team, they are all likeable young men with prosperous futures in football. I would like to thank the parents for all the dedication to get kids to training and games and for their support on the side-line. I would also like to thank the team’s manager Rochelle Gray for her tireless work as the team’s manager.

Team Report
The 17th Jaguars had a fairly good season all round!
They started off by winning all 7 games in their grading round and coming out on top. They were then placed into the 17th Division 1 for the Championship round.
This is where they were challenged a little more during the season. There were only 6 teams in this Division so they played each team twice. They ended up at the end of this round with 6 wins, 3 losses and 1 draw placing them 2nd on the table at the end of the round losing to Bay Olympic by just one point.
The boys all played really well this season and Russ was extremely pleased with how far they came as a team, working together and learning from each other as the season progressed. We had a mix of ages from 15 through to 17 year olds in the team so I think everyone should feel really proud with what they have accomplished over the season.
The Jags are now heading down to a 2 day tournament in Taupo in October to hopefully finish the season off with a few more wins
