Last weekend Somerset Spartans Futsal Club played Round 14 and 15 from the Gold Coast Futsal Competitions. Please read below a few match reports.
What a nail-biting final game for both teams who played brilliantly. The Whites convinced Orange there was no way they could win but in the final 10 minutes of the game the score was 4 to 1. We had all seen the Whites play this season and they were superb.
Hamish came along and scored a second goal for Orange, bringing a big smile to everyone watching the game. Just three minutes to the finish, Vaughan ran across and shot the third goal. Alan was the super star defender. Just before the whistle blew Abhiveer managed to score a goal and tie the game.
That meant Penalty shootout, the Whites had won their semi-finals in the penalty shootout and they were fantastic. Liam saved the day for the Orange team and we had our Champions!
The U10s played their final game of Futsal this season taking on the Gold Coast Rangers in a first vs fourth Semi Final. With two key players missing in Dylan and Jacob, it meant the whole team was going to have to work extra hard to pick up the slack. This is exactly what they did. Fighting from the beginning whistle until end, and not giving up once. As even though we lost the match, the rangers where only able to improve on our previous matches score line by a single goal. The team gritted through the hard work together, demonstrating some of the best passing, positioning, and defence I’ve seen from them all season. Some top-class tricks also had to be pulled out the bag by Zac in order to secure two wonderful goals and deny a clean sheet to our opponents.
This was a great result and ending to the season, and one I think all the players can be extremely proud of themselves for. It’s been a journey watching all of them continuously improve game by game. Looking forward to where they will go next season.
After five weeks of training, the Football club players are starting 6 March, with their grading games. The coaches will then announce the teams for the season and the divisions the teams will play for 2021.
For the 2021 season we are proud to announce that Somerset Spartans Football Club has been accepted in the Football Gold Coast Junior Girls Competition.
Somerset already participated in the Miniroos Competition. This competition uses small sided games teams playing 4v4, 7v7 and 9v9 sides rather than the traditional 11v11 format to cater to four to 11-year olds. The smaller fields, modified rules and fewer players leads to a more enjoyable game with more opportunities to be involved in the action.
The Football Gold Coast Junior Girls Competition play the 11v11 format. If you are interested to join our Girls Football Team. Please contact our Head of Football on mdekruijf@somerset.qld.edu.au
