We continue to work with the council and the Parr’s Park users group on the future develop- ment of facilities at Parr’s Park and led the presentation of the initial plan to the Waitakere local board on Thursday 22 nd May. Oratia UAFC will take the lead role to seek grant funding for a full facility study involving all the user groups to be completed this year with the grant application been lodged by the end of June and below is a brief about the group.

What is the Parr’s Park User Group. Is a group of primarily sports groups that all have a vested interest in Parr’s park and its fu- ture development. In late October 2013 Council initiated a meeting at Parr’s Park for all of the clubs that reside there. The aim of this initial meeting was to explore development and collaboration oppor- tunities, because individually they had all taken part in discussions around growth.

This group was formed in response to this; there are currently 7 key user groups (including the current sports clubs and Hoani Waititi Marae) Proud to that are working with Sport Waitakere and Coun- Support cil to gain support and source funding to conduct a feasibility study and assess options around fu- Oratia United ture buildings on the park to support the in- creased community need. 142 West Coast Road, Glen Eden If you wish to know more about the above group P: 818 2526 then talk to either me, Chris Stevens, Kevin Gea- ney or a board member.

Approaching a third of the way through the sea- son our senior teams are well into their work. We are generally very competitive across the board but as with every season some teams are enjoy- ing more success than others. Our coaches and management staff put in a lot of time and effort to make things work and as a club we are always mindful of this. These efforts are sometimes re- warded with results, sometimes not; such is the nature of football at all levels of the game. Our senior men’s reserves have had a positive month as have the Vintage and the Rovers while it is a mixed bag for the rest.

We have an outstanding facility here at Parrs Park with good pitches that will remain in top condition throughout the winter months. Our clubrooms are vibrant and busy. This latter has attracted a lot of positive comment from visiting teams.

In all a lot of positives and much still to achieve, both on and off the field.

On my cousin’s Facebook page, I note with some amusement that he’s now “a Latina fan”.

I’ve never been much of a natural sportsman. As much as I love watching football, I gave up playing it when I was about 10 years old quite simply be- cause I was woeful at it. It’s probably for that rea- son that what interests me about the game isn’t so much the technical or tactical side of the game, but more the sociological and cultural aspects. I’m a fan of football culture as much as the game itself. What makes a fan tick is as interesting, if not more inter- esting, to me as what makes a good player or team.

I’m not going be able to feel the righteous satisfac- tion of following Oratia United all the way to Serie A anytime soon, but my reasons for loving grassroots as much as I did that Eccel- lenza experience are based on the same principles.

All big things started off in life as smaller things. Before Manchester United was a global brand val- ued in the billions with all the associated glitz, glamour and clingers on, it was Newton Heath and played on a dodgy pitch in front of a few hundred people. The same is true of just about every other club in England. Wouldn’t you feel pretty smug if you were able to say you were there at North Road, Manchester, before all the hype and all the money?

The goal for this season was to gain promotion to NRFL Division 1 so we have a bit of work to do after losing that string of games. We have some momentum now though and the boys are really starting to gel so if we can string a few victories together over the next three or four weeks we’ll get ourselves back in the mix and if we can consistently play at the level we did last week then I believe we can beat anyone in our division.

After hosting Lynn Avon this weekend we will be half way through the season. It’s been an up and down start to the season. We started well and won our first three games fairly comfortably but then had a bad run of injuries so struggled to maintain those standards and lost five games on the trot which dropped us down the table. The last two games have been much better though and we have picked up good results against Pa- pakura, and then last weekend we won 4 – 0 away at Fencibles which was a big result for us.

Finally the Vintage team have come of age by playing in the over 40’s competition, after 6 years of plying there trade in the over 35’s they have now entered the age grade where they belong. During the off season a couple of new players have been bought in to the squad to replace the retiring & or players who cant be bothered anymore. The season started has started well with 4 wins, 1 draw & 3 losses. The problem the team has is the amount of injuries that the players have picked up since the start of the season, which is not the best when you only have a squad of 16 & for the past 4 games they have only had 11 players avail- able for each game.

The Vintage are sitting 4 th on the table at the moment with a lot of ground to make up if we want to chal- lenge the top spots, it shouldn’t be that hard all we have to do is win every game left & we might snatch second.

No matter what happens come the end of the season I am quite sure that the team would have enjoyed themselves on & off the field, the new players have fitted in well and come to understand that it’s a lot of fun playing for the Vintage plus the after match banter never changes, the same players will still tell you how great they are.
