4/16 Takapuna AFC Welcomes Te Atatu AFC Lotto NRFL Div 2 30 April 2016 Club History Sponsors Welcome/President’s Report On behalf of the Takapuna Committee welcome to Taharoto Park for round seven of the NRFL division two season. I would like to extend a warm welcome to James Colligan, his management team, players and supporters from Te Atatu. The last time the two clubs met was back in 2009/2010 season playing in the United Soccer One Premier league under the leader ship of head coach Clive Campbell. The 2016 NFF preseason tournament saw the two teams meet in what can only be described as a trail game as the purpose of the tournament is to give every player the opportunity to impress the first team coach to be selected in his/her starting eleven. Taking the field for both teams will be a lot of new players from when the two teams faced off a couple of months ago, so both teams go into today’s game with a lot of unknowns. In memory of Ray Hill As most will know Ray Hill had been fighting cancer for the good part of two years and sadly he couldn’t fight anymore and passed away on Tuesday 26th April surrounded by family and friends. Our thoughts are with Ray’s family at this very difficult time, we will always remember Ray as a family member of Takapuna AFC Football Club. Rays history and achievements while he was head coach at Takapuna AFC: 1979: Head coach, Northern League First Division 1980:Head coach, Northern League First Division – league winners – promoted to Rothmans National League 1981: Head coach, Rothmans National League 1982: Head coach, Northern Premier League 1980: Ray was awarded the Auckland Soccer Coach of the Year Ray was also a true Liverpool supporter so as we now he will never walk alone Good luck over the weekend to all Takapuna teams, hopefully your 2016 campaigns will have you league winners in 16 weeks time. Please enjoy today’s game and I sincerely hope that you will experience the hospitality on offer during the day and then join with members from both clubs in the clubhouse after the game for the post match player awards and socially relax in the excellent facilities we have to offer Wayne Hallford President 1st Team Report FROM THE DUGOUT Good afternoon everyone and a very warm welcome to James Colligan, his management team, players and supporters from Te Atatu who have made the trip to the Taharoto Park for this NRFL Division 2 game. We were all very disappointed with the result and our performance at River Hill Park against Fencibles on ANZAC Monday. We had a great win at Manukau the week before which gave us a four game winning streak. However Jenny and I felt we had not prepared the team well enough and were out coached on the day against a very physical Fencibles team. We failed to perform from the off and that cost us dearly. We did however finish strongly and could have got something from the game with many close chances and opportunities around the Fencibles Goal. Fencibles are a good side but we felt it was a game that we should have taken some reward from but this was not to be the case. To add to our woes we had a few injuries and a red card in the dying minutes of the game which was harsh to say the least compared to all of the other stuff happening throughout the game and not picked up. This is the first time this season we have dropped league points and if we want to make it out of Division 2 we have to beat teams like Fencibles. We have kept the team virtually unchanged in recent games but there could be a shake up around the squad as other players have been stepping up making Jenny and myself’ s job very hard. Squad wise it’s good to see Jake Helsby make his first start back from injury and I’m hoping that he has a fast recovery back into the first team. I am though delighted that we have managed to get the services of Aiden Wong a player who has graced Taharoto Park before and we are looking forward to getting him up to speed as soon as possible. Today we face Te Atatu, who though they have had some disappointing results early in the season have started putting some good results together and I am sure they will provide us with a stiff challenge. We hope to see a number of you at a difficult away game that we have upcoming at Papa- toetoe on the 7th of May but if not then back here two weeks’ time for the Onehunga Mangere AFC game.
