Hello to all the Minotaur family!
I can see a lot of happy faces out there! 6 wins out of 8 matches, that is not a bad result !!!
Starting on Saturday, our U/9A's won 1 - 0 and won a spot into the grand final. Congratulations to the coach - George Dimakos, players and parents.
On the same day our U/9c's were unlucky to lose in the major semi final, but they get another chance this Saturday vs Connells Point to get a grand final spot (check here later on in the week for venue and time).
Also on Saturday our AAF Men's won the right to play in the grand final in two weeks (stay tuned for venue and times). Congratulations to Lars, Kieran and the boys and good luck in the grand final.
On Sunday our U/14 Rep team won their major semi vs Nowra 1 - 0 and will now play Mt. Druitt for the right to gain a grand final spot. Well done to the coach - Rob Seib, the manager - Chris Leech and the boys.
In the other semi final our U/16's without their injured captain and sweeper managed to beat Springwood and progress towards winning the cup, as they did last year. Let's hope that Ryan will recover from his injury and will be able to help his team to progress further. Well done George Koimanis, players and everybody else involved in helping our team.
Our state league teams First and Reserves had to go to Bathurst on Sunday to secure and improve our semi finals positions. Our 1st grade won 4 - 0 and our Reserve grade won 3 - 0. So next Sunday both teams will compete in major semis. Well done General and all the boys. As well as the good team results we also managed to have our striker - Michael Di Meglio win the golden boot for scoring the most goals (18) in the whole competition.
The only casualty this Sunday was the loss and elimination of our O/35B's.
In closing I would like to remind everyone of the Trophy Presentation Day / Night of Hurstville City Minotaurs S. C..
It is Saturday, 4th September 2010, at our club - Kingsgrove RSL. The association teams (U/6's, U/7's, U/8's and U/9's) will have a BBQ starting at 12.00 p.m. later on all the players will receive their medal, their trophy and their polo shirt. Mums and Dads bring your cameras to capture this memorable day. Our youth teams, our senior teams and our O/35's will have a sit-down dinner at the club starting at 7.00 p.m..
Till the next time keep on winning!
The General
