Entries for August 2007

What an end to the season!

Those of us who have been around Waiuku football a while are struggling to recall a better end to the season for the club as a whole.

While there will always be debate about which team has been the best-ever for the club  - that 1970 cup and league-winning side must go close, as must the side in the late 80s that forced their way into what was then the regional Northern Leagues – for constant performances in a tough league the current generation of Premiers have to sit highly in the rankings.

Singing when we’re winning!

Well it’s been a pretty good year for the club in 2007 and things could well get even better over the next few weeks. The Kentish Premiers can not do worse than second in Super Division and while it would take some oddball results for us to win from here, you never know. The Mens Reserves would need to forget how to play not to win their league from here, so put money on them to claim the Auckland fourth division title, and our Premier Ladies have their sights set on the Federation Knockout Cup after bowling championship contenders Western Springs last week.

Unbelievable weekend for the Blues!

Just a quick newsletter this week updating everyone on the results from the weekend and including a few match reports from the teams.

In summary though – it has to be one of the best weekends ever for the club as the Kentish Premiers treated once-mighty Pukekohe with contempt, outplaying them all across the park to win 4-0.
