It was a tough weekend across the board, but there’s a lot to hold onto.

The highlight of the round belongs to the Men’s Reserves, who picked up their first win of the season with a 2-1 victory over Te Kotahitanga. It’s been a challenging debut campaign in Capital Premier League, and that result is a real reward for the resilience they’ve shown. Keep pushing, lads.

The Men’s 1st were competitive against Western Suburbs, just couldn’t convert when it mattered. That’s football. The chances are coming, and the next one’s ours.

In the Masters, the Antiques and Marauders both came away with wins this weekend. Great to see those results across the grades.

In the Women’s, a special mention to Leah, who made her senior debut for the Women’s Reserves after coming through our Youth Development programme. Moments like that are what the club is built on. Proud of you, Leah.

And in the Youth Development, our U17s pushed hard in a narrow 2-3 loss to Te Kotahitanga. That fighting spirit at youth level is exactly the foundation we’re building from.

Not every scoreline will go our way, but the mentality, the development, and the desire to show up for each other every week, that’s what defines this club. Onwards.
