David Owen Club President PS Well done to our U17 girls’ team who came fourth in the ACFC National U17 tournament held at Western Springs last weekend. 3 2 Opposition History A Little about the team. Originally known as “Western Bay United”, AFC Fury began life in 2001 with a solitary adult men’s football team which played in the Waikato Sunday Soccer League (WSSL), the Club having been declined entry to local affiliated football competition for reasons known best by the then powers that be. The very first game played by the club in the WSSL was in April 2000 at Maramatanga Park and the team was made up of David’ two sons Delme and Duncan, rugby playing friends of Delme, football friends of David such as former Mt Maunganui National League stalwart Grant Proudman and a man who was playing tennis with his family on the nearby tennis courts who was asked to make up the numbers to the required eleven! The Club went through three name changes before settling on “AFC Fury” (Association Football Club Fury). Juniors begun in 2000 and in 2005 both juniors and seniors were accepted in to local affiliated football competition. 4 3 Player Signings Papatoetoe AFC is excited to announce the return of former Reds player Imraan Shah back to the club for the 2016 season. Imraan Shah is another familiar face to the club supporters having made is First Team debut under the guidance of Paul Hillis in 2010, whilst still at high school. Coach Mark Holt knows the ability Shah has; “Imraan is a player that has great feet to work in tight areas and the vision to look up and pick out a pass that puts a team mate in on goal. He has experience and quality that are going to compliment the players around him. A number of the squad spoke about how he can improve our play with various aspects that he brings to our club’. On signing for Papatoetoe, Shah said, "Coming back to Papatoetoe gives me the opportunity to play with friends I grew up with. Also the confidence Mark has put on me knowing that I have not played for a year and half was enough for me to sign. The potential in the players at the club is enormous. I am looking forward to a competitive season ahead." Iwa Shaker and Ishtiyaq Shah have also put pen to paper staying loyal to the cause. Shaker made a huge difference coming on board half way through the season from Mangere United and added valuable goals. Iwa said on signing, “I have always had a soft spot for Papatoetoe, it's the club I first kicked a ball at and have been though many adventures with for 11 years. I spent a few years away learning and improving my football in the Premier League and ASB Premiership and I feel like I can help the young players coming through now at the club. Last year when I came in we weren't in a very good position on the table, we managed to turn that around and fingers crossed we can push for a much higher finish this year.” One of the young players Iwa will be helping along the way is youngster Ishtiyaq Shah. He has come through the One Tree Hill College football academy and was signed last year, although has yet to make a NRFL First Team appearance Mark Holt is singing his praises. “Ish is a player who I have seen transform over four years at OTHC, in 2015 I felt having him around a Men’s set up would improve him as a player and prepare him for game time in 2016. So far in preseason he has pushed his case to start weekly and no one can complain with what he has produced over the last month.” 5 4 Papatoetoe AFC is pleased to announce the signing of former Reds player Sandip “Sandy” Singh back to the club for the 2016 season. Sandy Singh is another familiar face to the club supporters having played multiple seasons for the club prior to time away. Coach Mark Holt is delighted to have been able to attract a player of Singh’s quality back to Murdoch Park. “I have seen him play for a number of seasons and have always made note of his desire to get forward at any opportunity. With Ben Allan leaving for university in Dunedin I knew we had a big whole to fill, but with Sandy we have a ready replacement. His experience will be vital to our squad throughout the season. Sandy has a huge passion to see this club improve and is the type of player who can change a game with a piece of skill or the experience to be in the right place at the right time.” On signing for the Reds, Singh said, “I have signed for ‘Toey’ as I feel there is a great bunch of guys there that can help the club stay competitive for a number of years, hopefully we can gain promotion to get the club back on track to where it should be. Personally I would like to see myself improving as a player with the great coaching staff we have in place.” Papatoetoe AFC is pleased to announce the signings of former Reds player Cody Patterson, Manukau City forward Josh Karika and Fencibles Scott Booker to the club for the 2016 season. Patterson is a familiar face to the club faithful and has scored many a goal for the Reds. In 2015 at Manukau City he scored six league goals, including one in the opening game of the season against Papatoetoe AFC. However coach Mark Holt said it is not just his goal scoring reputation that adds value to the side. “Cody adds experience at a higher level and his aggressive style along with his determination to win is required to compete in this league. He is the type of player that when fully fit can turn a game with his ability to read a situation and make the most of the opportunity. The other thing that can often be forgotten about Cody is his passion for the club and his high regard for it.” On signing for the Reds, Cody said, “I have a strong desire to see the club go further, we shouldn’t be a Division 2 team. Personally I spent a number of years at the club in the Youth and Men’s section and with the structure in place I am pleased to be back here. This is a massive year for us with the signings Holty has got onboard; it is the start of a new era at Papatoetoe AFC. I am willing to put in the hard yards to see this club get better. I also have an emotional attachment to the club that my father loved so much.” Cook Islands International forward Josh Karika has also put pen to paper signing for the club from Manukau City. Last season saw Karika in the top five scorers in the league with 13 goals and Holt knows that is something his side requires in 2016. “After seeing Josh play a lot last season I felt he is a player that would fit into Papatoetoe AFC moving forward.

Last weekend’s 2-2 draw at Takapuna was Jack Poole a real battle. It took us until mid-June to get our fi rst point in Auckland last season, so it was great to get that little President monkey off the back nice and early this time around.

To tie in with this historic milestone, the Lotto NRFL will have a new look and feel with the introduction of a logo and further branding, including social media and this weekly programme, for one of the country’s leading club-based competitions. The elements used within the logo refer to various features of the different regions. The wavy lines represent the wide expanses of water that surround Northland, Auckland and the Waikato, including the Waikato River, while the mountains evoke the Waitakere Ranges, Bombay Hills and Kamai Ranges, as well as the numerous volcanoes that are scattered throughout the area. The Harbour Bridge connects Auckland’s southern suburbs with the North Shore and stands proud in the distance of the logo while the history of the competition is reflected in the slogan ’50 Years of Local Pride’. We hope you enjoy and good luck for the 2015 season!

For us, 2010 is special as we enter the Northern Regional Football League (NRFL) for the fi rst time. While we did spend fi fteen years in the old Northern League (from 1983 to 1998) this is a whole 2010 new ball game, taking on new teams and playing at a higher level than we ever did in the old days. Management Speaking of new teams, it is my pleasure to welcome Committee Papakura City to the Domain for, we believe, the fi rst time. Our paths never crossed in our previous Northern League Patron existence and our records, such that they are, don’t show Jack Poole our two clubs meeting at any other level either. So this is going to be a new experience for everyone. This sort President of match is one of the main reasons we applied to enter Dwayne Barlow the NRFL. Taking on new teams, faces and personalities, Vice-Presidents along with the chance to play a decent level of opponent, Peter Challis will only help grow football in our small community. I hope Malcolm Raynel you guys enjoy your brief time in Matamata (although, obviously, not too much...) and you have a safe trip home. Treasurer Last Saturday’s visit to Auckland to play Mangere United Dave Mann was, to say the least, interesting.

A champion will definitely be found in the final round of the Women’s Premier on Sunday with Claudelands Rovers appearing likely to wrestle the crown off Forrest Hill-Milford United. The champions-in-waiting need just a point from the visit of relegated Fencibles United while Forrest Hill must make sure they beat Papatoetoe and pray for a miracle down in Hamilton. In the men’s action, a quirk of the draw has pitted the top two sides against each other in both the Premier League and Division One, creating what amounts to a pair of title deciders. Eastern Suburbs will claim the top-flight gong if they beat Hamilton Wanderers while Forrest Hill can do the same in their northern derby against North Shore United in the first division. Division Two title favourites Papakura City could also wrap things up in Sunday’s trip to AFC Fury but that would depend on Oratia United suffering an upset loss at home to Papatoetoe on Saturday.

Box 75 122 War Memorial Park Manurewa Gibbs Rd Auckland Manurewa Phone: (09) 267 1120 www.manurewaafc.org.nz Hello again everyone and welcome to our first derby match for a couple of seasons. These matches are usually hard fought and entertaining regardless of where the teams currently stand on the results ladder. I expect today will be no different. At Manurewa this year we have embarked on a new coaching strategy for the 1st and reserves teams and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Hoani, Nathan, Mark & Steve for giving it a real attempt. We also have two relatively youthful sides this year that I would encourage to gel as a team, learn together and get stronger and better as individuals and as team players. We also welcome a couple of players from overseas, penalty saver Mataias and what red card Pablo. I hope you guys have settled in and are enjoying your time playing for Manurewa. Also welcome back Stephen Carmichael to the club, [I coached him when he was a youngster, oh he still is a youngster] he has scored more goals in three games than one of his coaches did in a year, [let you guess who that is]. To our supporters, once again thank you for the great turn out in numbers, whether home or away, it’s what gets this club mentioned in one way or another and I'm sure it does lift our teams.
