Awards: Riley, Connor, CJ and Josh.
For today’s game we didn’t need to use Google maps to find Kelly Park as the games were switched to Aloysius and Lambert Parks. Another game where the defenders were solid and didn’t let the opposition get too close to our goals … Well done Harry, Marcus, Gerizim and Tim and Manny. Felix controlled the midfield well along with Wendell and Kye, CJ, Connor and Tyrese who all played well up front. Some nice passing to feet and some great one-touch passing as was indicated with the passage of play … Tyrese to Wendell to Kye to Felix back to Kye and then to Felix who scored/ A bit more talking would be good. CJ was unlucky on a couple of occasions with near misses over the cross-bar and around the upright. Scott made a couple of spectacular saves.

Both teams played well but hotspurs came out on top 8-1. Sam Thorman scored 4, Xander 2, Mitch 1 and Subash 1. Nice runs made by Mathew Clarke and Connor Jory, while Kyle, William and Caleb were giving great support in/out of defence. Lewis hit some ripper through balls to Nato and Townie. Sideline support provided from Azar gave inspiration to all the players. Lachlan played a great game adding support in defence and attacking up front. All round great effort from the U16s hotspurs!

Third’s V Twin City Draw 0 – 0
This was a really good team performance against a strong, physical team. Hotspurs worked very hard to keep their team structure and support each
other. In the end the Spurs nearly grabbed the winning goal in a very close match. Top effort by everyone but special mention to Caleb Parker and our goalkeeper Joel McDonough who both outstanding.

Reserves V Twin City Lost 0 – 9
A severely undermanned ressies with seven players unavailable were outclassed by a very strong team. The effort of all Spurs players is to be commended. Middi and Joncock were very good and Mickett played well in his return to the side. Special thanks to all the thirds who filled in to allow us to get a full side on the field.
Ladies V Twin City Draw 2 – 2
The Seniors played a team who showed why they are the favourites to win the League this year. Our opponents seemed to convert every chance they got in front of goal. Matt Townsends goal was as good as any in the game and it was great to see Tyson Mason get his first goal for Spurs. The boys played some good football in patches and two goals is the most Twin City has conceded this year. We look forward to getting a win after Easter.
