Manurewa AFC and AFF mourns the loss of Alex Ogilvy

It is with sadness we note the passing on Sunday 18 August of Manurewa AFC founder member Alex Ogilvy.

A founder member and Life Member of the Manurewa AFC club, which marked its 50th Jubilee in 2009, Alex performed a large number of roles with the club; including more than one stint as president, the most recent from 2000-2012.

Alex was also a foundation member of the Franklin and Districts Football Association, which became the Counties Manukau Football Association. Alex is a Life Member of the Counties Manukau Football Association.

The Counties Manukau Football Association joined with the Auckland Football Association in 2000 to form Soccer2, one of the seven regional Federations in the country (now known as Auckland Football Federation).

Auckland Football extend our deepest sympathies to Alex's family and club mates at Manurewa AFC and we thank Alex for the outstanding service he gave to football in our region.

Alex Ogilvy's funeral is at 2pm on Wednesday 21 August in the Chapel of Manukau Memorial Gardens, Puhinui Road, Papatoetoe. The Manurewa AFC clubrooms will be open from 3.30pm.

In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Hospice South Auckland may be left in the Chapel foyer.

Welcome Ellerslie Prem's, reserves, and supporters to Manurewa for the last game of the season.

For the club it’s a very sad day as we remember the loss of Alex Ogilvy last Sunday. I ask you to join us for a minutes silence in his memory. A man who has been with the club from its inception until his passing.

It hasn't been the best of seasons for the club this year but today we also celebrate with another member of the 100 club, Justin Horan and with Kieran last week I feel honoured to have watched you both during the last 5 years as Alex would have too.

To all teams playing at home today—take a moment to reflect on the great work that the behind the scenes staff do to make this great game possible week in and out.

The club raffle was drawn last week and was a great success so thanks to all who sold their tickets and to those who didn’t, let's hope you can try harder next year. Again, to sponsors of the raffle thanks you and to Andrew bloody well done.

As we look forward to next year in first division, please join with us in working on making our stay a short one.

To the coaches and players, I thank you for your effort and look forward to working with you again to get this great club back to the top level again.

To all other sides, senior, youth and junior, enjoy what is left of your season and hopefully we'll see you all at prizegiving.

Alex, wish you were here.

Reserve Coaches Comments

This is the last report for the 2013 season from the reserves as we prepare to take on Ellerslie in the final game of the season.

Ellerslie have a bit to play for because if they can secure the 3 points, they can finish in 3rd place. We will finish the league in mid table but would like to finish off our season in style.

Last week, we went down 2 -1 in a thriller against league winners Hamilton where Hamilton cleared off the line in stoppage time and I was already celebrating the goal before it had gone in and was wondering why the referee hadn't awarded it.

I look back over the season and some of our results and wonder if only. I think this has been a fairly successful season from my point of view because there are some very good sides in this league, and we have run many of them close with our biggest loss being a 4 - 2 loss.

I would like to thank all the players for their commitment over the season, and Gordon Craig for his help over the first part of the season. I would like to thank Howani and Nathan for the use of 1st team players and also those players for giving 100% when they turned out for us. I would also like to thank Anja for the organisation that she has put into this year in managing the side.

I sign off for this year and hope to be doing this all again next year.

Welcome to all our supporters and the Ellerslie team for our last match of the season.

The first team wish to extend our condolences to the family and friends of Alex Ogilvy. I’m sure Alex will be keeping an eye on the match from up above and the boys will be trying our hardest to pick up a win for him.

Today’s match closes off what has been a challenging season for the first team. The best way for us to finish this season will be with a win today. Ellerslie still have a good chance of avoiding relegation if they can pick up the points today which should make for a well fought entertaining match. While results have not been close to what we expect, the season has given us the opportunity to blood some new young players to the club and premier league level. We appreciate the effort and character shown by all the players involved with the first team squad this season. We hope all this year’s players will return next season as they are key in our challenge to regain Premier League status.

On behalf of the first team, Nath and I would also like to thank all the club supporters who have cheered the lads on this year. Without a doubt Manurewa is one of the best supported football clubs in New Zealand. Special mention to Kerry, Duncan and the club committee for their continued support. We would also like to thank Steve Wood and Anya P for their work with the Reserve team, Craig Hastings and Simon Bilton for their top class goal keeper coaching and the work of our physiotherapists Sharon and Katherine from Physio Rehab Group. Last but not least we would like to acknowledge and thank our team manager Adrian Stewart who has been top class all year. Adrian goes the extra mile for the players and has been an invaluable member of our team.

Please join us in the club after the match to hopefully celebrate a win to close the off the season.

Cheers

With the season coming to an end we reflect on the year that was. As most on the board would suggest it a year we would like to have over again. As the First team ends its season destined for Division One, we as the question. Is that bad thing or a good thing. I guess that depends on your own point of view. From my point of view I thank Hoani and Nathan for their efforts and the team they put together when most of their opposition had taken the opportunity to select players and begin training. I said last week with recent results wouldn't it be nice to start that season again. So Division 1 here we come, baring any "Administrative Error." or innovation such as expanding the league... Well Done Hoane, Nathan and of course Adrian. To the players we thank you for your commitment and not just coming to play at a club, but becoming part of it. Once a REWA player, always a REWA player. Our Reserves have had one of its best years for some time. They may not have won the competition but the team played well together and supported the first team as all good reserve teams do. Well done reserves, outstanding. Assyrian Star. Have they found their level? With all good teams this team has many classy individuals. The key however is they play even better as a team and we look forward to them being even stronger next year. Division 3 unfortunately started without a coach and with assistance from Beau we managed to field a team with some players stepping up to a level normally above their usual grade. Although a slow start in the first round, the second round saw the team assisted by other senior members climb the ladder to end a respectable mid table above Ellerslie. Division 9 was pulled together with group of guys and assistance from our senior and youth teams on a weekly basis. Outstanding effort having a different team each week certainly made it hard to play team football but this team were keen to compete and were able to win the competition after having started 4 weeks into the comp. Over 30's Div 1. It was always going to be tough with an average age most likely closer to 40 than 30 but as we know these guys don't give up. Still an enjoyable season and the end of year trip as always will be the highlight. Ladies Div 2. Thanks ladies for your continued support on and off the field. With two games in hand they have the chance to get off the bottom of the table. Supporters are encouraged to get along to these games to ensure we return to show the ladies they are supported as much as they support the club. Under 19 Metro - Again another great effort team and to win the league is an outstanding result. This team was well supported by other players and teams within the club and share their success with the club.

This has been a year I'd prefer to forget, for many reasons. If it wasn't incompetent council workers and contractors it was a Federation that failed perform in its most important task of assisting with the correct administration of the game. For Clubs, sporting and other organisations to survive in our area these people must have the needs of the people they work for at heart. Let's keep the relationship going and work with these people to ensure we get the services and support we need to be a successful club at all levels.

Now since I was nagged to complete this report. I thank the club members for the work they have done at all levels of the clubs. There are some great people coming through the club and I see the future of the club in good hands. My opportunity to ensure the club has continued support within the community is coming in the way of the up coming elections. I am standing for a position on the Wiri Licencing Trust to ensure our community and great clubs like our own are supported and able to be the best they can be. Our local Board lead by Angela Dalton are supportive of the club and our local councillors on the Auckland Council Sir John Walker and Callum Penrose continue to support us as they have this year. We have a great team running and your support for the Manurewa Action Team will ensure Manurewa is a place to be proud of, whether it be Culture, arts or sport.

Duncan White LADIES REPORT

Hi all ,

There isn't much to report from the ladies team this week as we had a bye last weekend but this weekend we have Onehunga-Mangere at home which should be a good game and as I was doing a half marathon last time we played them I have no idea what they are like to play against. I hope the ladies can come away with the win and the 3points.

We have one game after that to play against Fencibles after this weekend which I'm hoping for another win and 3 more points as well.

Good luck to all Manurewa teams playing this weekend.

I would also like to say that this week we lost a great club man and a true legend of Manurewa Soccer.

ALEX WE WILL MISS YOU AND YOU WILL BE FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS AND YOUR LEGEND WILL LIVE ON AT MANUREWA AFC. IM SURE YOU WILL BE WATCHING DOWN ON EVERY MANUREWA TEAM PLAYING EVERY WEEKEND.

R.I.P SIR ALEX WE WILL MISS YOU.

Youth Report Hi all

As this is the last report of the season, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our coaches and managers for the effort they have put in this season. Also to my Committee, you guys have done a fabulous job this season.

A few teams still have a couple more games to play but at this stage I can confirm that we have 4 teams who have won (or first equal) the championships. They are 11th Lightning (Premier), 13th Force (Div 2 South), 14th Gold (Div 1) and 15th Stallions (Div 4). 11th Gorillas (Div 4 South) had a game this morning and one next week. If they win these, they also will take out their division.

Congratulations to all teams for a great season. We wish you all a safe summer and see you at registrations in February.

On a sadder note, we farwelled our matriarch Alex Ogilvy on Wednesday. Thanks must to out to all club members who attended the service in club colours and showed our respect with a Guard of Honour at the end of the service. A moving tribute to a wonderful man. Alex, you will be missed here at Manurewa AFC but will never be forgotten. Rest peacefully.

Special mention to 9th Cougars undefeated this season also to 10th Cougars as both teams Division Winners. Win/Lose/Draw this season the object of football is having fun with teammates, development and time spent on the ball in training and on the field.

With the development of skills comes its own reward at the end of the game. Some comments from Parents/Coaches and Kids— “Great Season and love to watch kids play”, “Development and ball skills improving”, “Lots of fun for the younger kids but would like less drills on Saturday and more game time”, “Nice to see the level of progression through grades”, “Soccer is fun and I like it fun”, “It’s like having a cool drink of something refreshing. Just seems to wipe weekly stress away. They play because they are loving it.”
