EXEC CHAIR’S WELCOME
A warm welcome to Seddon Fields for our Premier Men's National League home debut.
Welcome to Coastal Spirit, who, like us, finished runners up in their regional league.
It was a tough afternoon down at Napier last weekend. Scotty and the boys know the result didn't match the effort and we know they will be keen to make amends on this special weekend..
Maia and our Premier Women make the short trip up SH16 to take on West Coast Rangers. It will be a tough game as Rangers are in good form but we always have confidence in the team to produce when it matters.
Both our Girls and Boys are competing well in the National Youth League. This may not be translating to points but they are always competitive. The Girls head down to Hamilton to take on Melville United and the Boys welcome Hamilton Wanderers to Seddon on Sunday.
Many thanks of course to our staff and volunteers who work tirelessly behind the scenes to provide a great club environment throughout the season and for their continued efforts in the months ahead.
Ongoing gratitude also to our life members who are the history and foundation of the Club we are today. To our 2024 sponsors, we thank you for your support and we look forward to working together as we move into the exciting National League phase.
Alec Flood, Senior Chair
