At St Bernadette’s Primary School in Lalor Park over 60% of our students speak English as their second language with many families having migrated to our beautiful country that we call home. This year we hosted our third Harmony Day and for the first time Western Sydney Wanderers have come on board. It began as a very small event with a few parents bringing in food that is native to their culture to share with students and fellow families and has grown into a full day of celebration. For 2016, students all wore orange or traditional dress for a gold coin donation as we held a liturgy, a cultural dance WE ARE ONE, BUT workshop and a huge fiesta lunch that WE ARE MANY included our annual piñata.

  • 2017 Ffsa Season Review Facilities Funding
    2017 FFSA SEASON REVIEW FACILITIES FUNDING The continued improvement of club based infrastructure has been a strategic priority for Football Federation SA in the past number of years. Being able to cater for the expanding participation base is vitally important to the sustainability of clubs. Additionally, being able to provide quality environments for game day and training will ultimately lead to the development of quality players for the future. In partnership with clubs, Football Federation SA (FFSA) has developed a Football Facilities Development Strategy that has considered the existing provision of facilities available for Football in the State and planned for future growth. The planning document has provided an evidenced based vehicle to present to Federal, State and Local Governments. Football’s plan received a fantastic boost when the South Australian State Government announced an investment of $13.5 million into community Football facilities. The announcement made by Treasurer Tom Koutsantonis (who has been a great supporter of Football in the state) and Deputy Premier John Rau enabled Football Federation SA to unlock a further $7 million in federal and local government support. The combined investment has seen $30.5 million invested in Football specific infrastructure projects in the past two years. The following clubs and user groups have been positively impacted on as a result of the South Australian State Government’s investment; Adelaide Olympic Football Club, Modbury Jets, Adelaide University Women, Adelaide City Women, Campbelltown Women, Cumberland United Women, Fulham United Women, Metro United Women, Salisbury Inter Women, West Adelaide Women, Sturt Lion, Fullham United, West Adelaide Hellas, Adelaide Comets, Metro Stars, White City Juniors and Seniors, Cove, South Adelaide Panthers, Seaford Rangers, West Torrens Birkalla, Mt Barker United, Northern Demons, Cumberland United, Referees, NTC Boys & Girls, FFSA Development Squads (Boys & Girls).

By winning 2-0 at Wigan Athletic FC on 11 May United ensured they finished two points clear of Avram Grant's team, who began the day level on points but were held 1-1 at home by Bolton Wanderers FC. • A UEFA Champions League triumph this year, 50 years after the loss of eight of manager Sir Matt Busby's 'Babes' in the 1958 Munich air crash, would carry a particular emotional resonance for United, who were previously continental champions in 1968 and 1999. • Chelsea, by contrast, will hope the size of the prize at stake will inspire them to rise above their domestic disappointment and claim their first European Cup in what is their first final. If Moscow appears perhaps the perfect venue for the club's Russian owner Roman Abramovich, Chelsea supporters may find another positive omen in the date of the final: it was on 21 May 1971 that the London side won their first European trophy, beating Real Madrid CF to claim the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.

Die Abschaffung dieses traditionellen ersten Akts der Saison ist ein Vorbote der Änderungen, die nächste Saison in Kraft treten werden, insbesondere das neue Format der UEFA Champions League, die Vertretern einer grösseren Anzahl Nationalverbände offenstehen wird. Diese Massnahme sowie die automatische Qualifikation von drei Vertretern der ersten drei Verbände der UEFA-Koeffizientenrangliste werden auf jeden Fall Auswirkungen auf die nationalen Meisterschaften haben, die ebenfalls vor kurzem begonnen haben oder bald beginnen werden. Bekanntlich war diese Öffnung der UEFA Champions League ein wichtiges Ziel meines Wahlprogramms. Ich freue mich deshalb besonders, dass sie so schnell umgesetzt werden konnte. Ohne die Zusammenarbeit der Klubs, die den Dialog und die gemeinsame Suche nach Lösungen akzeptiert haben, wäre IN DIESER AUSGABE diese Umsetzung allerdings nicht so schnell und reibungslos zustande gekommen. Ich möchte ihnen hier für diese positive Einstellung danken, die der Erster Titel bei Fussball braucht, um seine ausserordentliche Beliebtheit und seine Kraft zu wahren. den Frauen für Italien 03 Weitere wichtige Themen stehen im Raum und auch dabei zähle ich auf Deutschland die Bereitschaft aller, sich gemeinsam an einen Tisch zu setzen und angemessene, wird U19-Europameister 05 für alle annehmbare Lösungen für wesentliche Probleme wie die finanzielle Neue Etappe im Sanierung von Klubs zu finden.
