LOTTO NRFL Division 1

2.45pm

Manurewa AFC Club Rooms P.O. Box 75 122 War Memorial Park Manurewa Gibbs Rd Manurewa Phone: (09) 267 1120 Welcome to Western Springs who sit in second spot for Northern League Division one.

Last Sundays result wasn’t what we wanted but I have to say that the signs are there and with some accurate shooting and passing the result could have been a lot different.

To both sides keep the effort up and I look forward to the start of the second round. I am positive we will start to see the results we as members, coaches and players want.

A reminder that it is the second round of the against Hibiscus Coast away on Monday 2nd June at 2pm. So folks think about the trip up again and hopefully a change in results.

Sorry to see the Division Six side disbanded but to those who gave it a go well done. Hopefully something to work on for next year.

I’m looking forward to seeing a game at home this week after being away for awhile. Sometimes work gets in the road of sport.

Good luck to all sides, enjoy your sport.

Thanks

Reserve Coaches Comments

Since my last report a couple of weeks ago when things seemed so much rosier, the reserve side has hit a bit of a form slump.

Firstly, we went down to rivals Papatoetoe 2-1, got knocked out of the main draw of the reserve cup by Metro on penalties and then got our backsides whipped by North Shore going down 5-0.

Today will be another test of character as we face Western Springs who have similar results and are just ahead of us on the points table. It is vital that we get a result today to stay in touch with the frontrunners of the competition. Despite the loss at North Shore, it was pleasing to see the boys lift for the second half as we were 4-0 down at the break and with us having a player sent off early in the second half, things could have been a lot worse.

What our players need to understand that the game goes for 90 minutes and not 45 minutes. The frustrating thing was that we should have been 2 or 3 up after a short period of time and that would have knocked North Shore. I'm sure we would have been able to finish them off but we failed to capitalize on the chances that we created.

So hopefully today we can turn it around and enjoy a nice cold one with 3 points but we are going to have to work hard.

Good luck to all Manurewa teams for this weekend and will see you afterwards.

First Team Coaches Comments

Neil has brought an immediate improvement to the fortunes of his club getting promotion into the 1st division in his first season with a blend of talented youth and experience. I’m sure he will now be looking to push for promotion this season and take on the best Auckland Football has to offer next year.

We also wish Neil well with the All Whites. There’s a great crop of young talent being produced these days and hopefully NZF can give him a chance to get the best out of them and give us a chance to take an extended holiday to the Russia 2018. I hear it’s lovely over there these days…

As for our team, last week epitomised our season. We played some good football for the majority of the match and were controlling the game and created some clear chances. Then a lack of composure and a team-wide brain-fade saw two soft goals conceded and a 3 points dropped which pulled us back down in the relegation battle. Consistency is key in this league and we will need better performances from everyone week-in, week-out to pick up points and get us up where we feel we should be. Until that happens, this is going to be another long season.

Thanks,

H, Nath & Mark

Hi Everyone,

Hope you have all had a couple of good weeks since the last report.

It is with regret that we have had to remove the Div 6 team from competition as they have found it hard to put a team together each week. Although we have tried each week, it just didn’t happen.

The rest of the teams have done well with 3 wins 1 loss and 1 postponed last week. The ladies having the biggest win 5-1 against Pukekohe, well done girls

The first team and the reserves both didn’t enjoy playing on a Sunday with both going down 2-1 and 5-0. Let’s hope they can both turn it around this week against Western Springs.

On the 31st May we are away to Melville and there is a bus going down, leaving at 9.30am and returning around 8pm. There are still seats left if you would like to travel down with the team just let me know ASAP. Seats are $20 each—phone me on (0212705509).

All the best for your games this weekend. If you still owe fees, they must be paid or at least sort payments by end of next week or we may have to stand you down which is not fair on your team.

Adrian Stewart Senior Chairman

LADIES REPORT

Since our last report we have felt defeat once. We travelled to Murdoch Park and went down 1-0. This was a well contested game and the result could have gone either way. I feel a draw would have reflected the game well.

Needless to say losing against Pukekohe this weekend was not an option. Manurewa started the game off strongly and found the back of the net quickly. We continued to dominate the game and went into the second half 2 nil up. The team continued to press forward and POD Kate Dillon worked tirelessly all day with Kamera Tucker down the right side of the park resulting in a 5 1 win. Brenna Masuitama also managed to put her name on the score sheet finally and Natalie Lamb registered her first hat trick for the season.

We continue to look for new players as the season progresses and the injuries start rolling in so if you want some Sunday entertainment come find us.

Robynne Ladies Coach Youth Report Hi all

After a 2 week break over Easter and the school holidays all youth teams are now back in full swing. With only two games left in the grading rounds, we are hoping to get a couple of teams promoted to higher divisions. We have 4 teams who have not lost a game so we will be watching these teams over this weekend and next weekend and hopefully we can see them promoted when the competition begins.

Team photos are booked in the week beginning Monday 30 June. Your coaches will advise you the day and time that your team is scheduled. Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to you photo time so the administration can be completed prior to the photo being taken.

Another event that will quickly be upon us is Youth Prizegiving. The date for this is 20 September here at the clubrooms. More details will follow closer to the time. Mark the date on your calendars now.

We wish all Rewa teams best of luck for todays games.
