U16G div 2 v North Rocks  Draw 1-1
Very very disappointed in the team performance today, one of those games where a lot of the girls were not there at the game today.  Larissa was the coaches player of the match for a very solid display at fullback.  To our keeper of the day (my little girl) what do you say about that goal, don't need to say any more except the gloves are now hung up and retired.  We have a lot of work to do girls, the holiday is over.  Coach 
 

All Age Ladies div 4 v Winston Hills Black  Won 1-0
Great game with our 10 players giving their all.  Goal mid 1st half and a solid passing game totally controlling the play and not letting WHB into the game at all.

Keen to avenge our first round 1-0 loss to St Micks we came out fired up and soon went ahead with a couple of quick goals. Another before the break and we were comfortable, but perhaps sat back too much 2nd half and St M came at us strongly. They scored through a penalty then we got 1 more to put the game out of reach before they grabbed a late 2nd goal. All in all we played well but took our foot off the pedal in the 2nd half. Great job Webby running the subs and Tony reffingSenior 3 - game deferred.

Sun 27th June:
U16G div 2 v Kellyville Won 2-1

Very tough, hard fought win today.  2 great goals by Sarah P., great save by keeper Shayley from a direct penalty, some injuries as well.  Was a super team effort today, every team seems to be coming after the leaders and your response over the last couple of weeks has been fantastic.  It’s a tough month ahead girls but if you show the courage, determination and enthusiasm you showed today there will be no stopping us.  Very proud of the effort today.  Coaches player of the match was Sarah L. who stopped wave after wave in our last line of defence.  Coach

An eventful 1st half saw us 1-1 at the break. Some argy-bargy between players almost proving our own undoing. 2nd half we settled and played good football, passing well and placing our shots to good effect. Well done Tony in goals and thanks to Mladen for reffing. We can beat any team in this comp if we cut out all the arguing and other crap, so why do we keep doing it?

Senior 3 v Parramatta City Won 8-1
U16G div 2 v Rouse Hill Rams Loss 2-0
Our 1st loss of the season and the most proud I have been of the team this season. Top of the table clash we started with 10 then had to play with 9 for about 15 min when one of our girls was taken out. I had to drag my daughter Cassie out of her sick bed to play which I was so proud of, she did it for the team and the coach / dad. We had injuries and some other sick girls. I’m going to mention the 10 of you, it was a super effort, and 2-0 down at half-time you outplayed RH 2nd half. Well done Cassie, Courtney, Cleo, Kacey, Kaylah, Sarah L, Sarah P, Shayal, Simone, and Susan.

All Age Ladies div 4 v Wenty Waratah Won 7-2
After the previous days thrashing the Ladies 4 went into this game determined not to make the same mistakes. Straight away you could tell the difference because we were passing and not blindly kicking the ball anywhere. Placement of shots on goal were really good. An example of this was Claire's curled shot into back corner of the net. Congratulations to Mel for her first goal. Di, Tammy, Lauren and Nicki K defended well against some fast strikers. Everyone played well but Bec and Mel had outstanding games and this was reflected in player votes. Players of the match were Bec, Nicky P and Mel. Scorers were Nicole P, Vanessa, Claire, Mel, Rochelle. (Stand in coach JN now retiring with 1 win from 1 game)

PC bottom of the table and playing short and with injured players proved to be cannon fodder for us. Their goalkeeper made numerous valiant saves but could only do so much. Plenty of us getting on the scoresheet (although JN still couldn’t manage it) including a wonder strike from Pasta Dom. Injured Don tried hard to stay in goals but handed over to Singh for the 2nd half and PC chipped him with a neat free kick.

Senior 3 v Merrylands SFC Won 6-2

Sun 13th June:
U16G div 2 v Wenty Waratah Draw 0-0
Players away today and a couple of sick girls, one of those games where we didn’t play too well as a team. We did fight hard in the end to fight for a draw. Coaches award today goes to Simone who had a great 1st half and played in goals 2nd half when no-one else would. Coach

All Age Ladies div 4 v Castle Hill United Loss 7-0
Not much to say except when we play a passing game we do a lot better. We've beaten this team before and could have done so again but were not switched on.
All Age Ladies div 2 v Beaumont Hills Loss 2-1
We had the pleasure of watching the Ladies 2 play this match. The ladies played a good passing game and made many good approaches to goal but luck wasn't with them on the final shots. Goalie Kristen made some really great saves and Jackie was dogged in her determination to get the ball. Good to see Jade using her head. Bec was unlucky not to score. Kim, Lauren and Sarah were solid in the midfield making good use of the field to create chances. New players to the team are fitting in well and everyone is contributing with well thought out passing and supporting each other.

Great game girls. Next one will be a win! (John and Lisa)

in the 2nd half - we must improve on this.

Senior 3 v Castle Hill United - washed out
Senior 2 v Greystanes - Loss by Forfeit

Sun 30th May:
U16G div 2 v Lidcombe Waratah Won 9-0

Some very good individual performances today, Sarah P. & Simone
were great in both scoring hat-tricks, Cleo scored her 1st goal
of her career, Renea chipped in with 1 & Sarah L. after letting
loose from her sweeper position & giving her a run in the
midfield scored a great goal.  Well done girls nearly half way
through the comp & we are now 6 points clear sitting nicely on
top of the table.  We have to keep improving & getting better
each week for the run home.  Well played team. Coach

All Age Ladies div 4 v Dundas Won 2-1

A great win against the 2nd placed team.  Sherrie got their
keeper upset & put her off her game.  2 nice goals from
corners - Ness with a volley & later on Tammy a left footer
from distance.  Dunnies upset at losing but hey we got the
3 points.  Excellent games from Di & Niccy K & Megan great
in goals all game.  Lisa enjoyed the run in midfield.

Up 2-0 at oranges and we let this one slip.  Pendo hit back early
1st half but we were still in control.  Went to sleep in the last
10 min and allowed them to score 3 goals.  We have to finish our
games stronger than this.

Senior 3 v Greystanes Loss 1-0

Sun 23rd May:
U16G div 2 - bye
All Age Ladies div 4 v Rouse Hill Loss 3-1

A horrible game with numerous early chances going just wide or over
the bar.  Failure to mark up properly gave RH uncontested shots at
goal from the edge of the box and they placed them very well. 
Megan took out their striker in a one-on-one.  Good games from
Rochelle and Natasha.  A frustrating game to watch.

back a little.  Great game from Rodney at sweeper and Sam was
a welcome return in the centre.

Senior 2 v Pendle Hill White Won 2-1

Sun 16th May:
U16G div 2 v Castle Hill RSL Won 3-0

Good win today girls.  6 from 6 is a fantastic start to the
season.  We still have some work to do on our positional play
but I was really happy with the effort today.  We get a
weekend off now then we have a tough month ahead, there are
6 teams in the finals race, we have no. 1 then there are 5
fighting for the other 3 spots, we have to be ready and treat
every game as a finals game as all teams will come out hard. 
Sheri (2) and Renea were the goal scorers today, while Cleo
had a great game in the midfield.  Coach

All Age Ladies div 4 v Winston Hills Red Won 7-0

Great game from our Ladies.  Lovely play in the middle and
defensively to totally dominate the game.  Alas Jacinta went
off with injury - hope its not too serious.  Goals to Ness (2),
Claire (2), Nicole P (2) and Rochelle.  Claire is claiming the
goal that the keeper dropped but we all reckon it's an own goal. 
Player of the Match was Claire.

U16 Girls div 2 v Castle Hill United Won 3-1

Not at our best today girls in warm conditions.  The pleasing part
of today's game for the coach was we were down 1-0, we showed
some real fighting spirit to come over the top of United in the
2nd half with 3 goals.  That spirit of never give up, keep fighting
is what we need come the business end of the season.  Goal scorers
Kaylah, Sheri, Renea & Sarah scored 1 each.  Kacey and Shayal had
great games in goals.  Cassie also had a great game in the backline.
Well done Kaylah who plays keeper, fullback, midfield and striker,
that versatility is great for the coach and your team.  Well played
team.  Coach

Simone (2), Sheri, Kaylah, Kacey and Shayley were the goal scorers today.
Comfortable win but not our best effort today.  First half was our worst
35 min this season.  The half time speech worked as we came out in the 2nd
and blew NR away.  At our best girls we will be hard to beat, we just have
to get that best from everyone for the full 70 min.  Well done Cassie and
Renea for giving keeper a go (thank you).  The coach very happy, wasn't our
best today but still got a 6-0 result.  Well played team.  Coach.

All Age Ladies div 4 v Winston Hills Black Won 2-1

Before this game these 2 teams were equal 2nd on the table.  True to form
the game was tight and even.  Our early play saw us pressing their goal,
but without any luck.  The play swung back down near our goal for a while. 
A goal kick out to Ness on the right saw her lose her marker & then go round
the defender to slot home a terrific strike between the keeper and the
near post.  2nd half saw the play go from end to end.  Megan was forced to
make crucial saves to keep WH out, first diving low to her right then jumping
high & right to swat the ball away from going in the top corner.  We attacked
down the right hand side before a switch of play to the left.  Nicole P took
on their sweeper but was held in the left corner.  A pass back to Mel, a flick
inside to Ness, one touch, & another shot goes home.  WH rallied with a late
goal then pressed again in the dying minutes.  A great game from all players
and great to watch.  Megan was voted as Player of the Match.
