Noosa Gold under 7s played one of their best games against the Unity Cobras. Gold dominated attack the whole match, but went down 2-1 in the end. Bella ‘the boot’ Hilligers scored the goal in spectacular style, and received the encouragement award from the Cobras. Harrison‘the bolt’ Howard played such a strong game and was so close to scoring several times that it got him the player of the match.
The under 7 blacks took some inspiration from the World Cup on Saturday, Jake MacDonald, the youngest player scored his first goal ever, while Joe Maskell also came close. The side had a great win, 12 nil with our goal kickers being Alaska Rosenkranz (5) Eamon Shemanksy (3) Sammy Poulton (2) Isaac Benjamin (1) and Jake (1). Jaimen Slavin took home the encouragement award, showing some great defending skills, while Keiran Dow demonstrated a strong defence as well.
The boys showed off many of their skills learnt week in week out from their committed coach Andy, and it was a great game.
Noosa Gold Under 8s played one of their best games yet against Immanuel Giants at ILC in Buderim on Saturday with only one substitute the team was on fire. Unfortunately they lost 5-1, but it never stopped them from showing some of their style, stamina and great positioning on the field. Piper Taylor who played her best game this season and almost scored a goal was named Player of the Match, with Tom Holmes playing like a fire ball, scoring the only goal for the day, and was given the Coaches Award, with finally Kelsey Loader being named the Team’s little Pocket Rocket and awarded Player of the Match from the opposition team. Well done Noosa Gold Under 8s, awesome work team.
Under 12 Noosa Gold had a slow start in their match against Nambour Bengal Tigers on Saturday, but still kept the score to a 2-all draw at half time. In the second half, they powered on to claim a 5-3 win with great teamwork from the midfield and forwards. Flynn Sperlich scored three, goals with Luke Poulton and Karter McEwen scoring 1 apiece. Lucas Evans was named Player of the Match for great play in defence.
the under 13s played against the range rebels at montville on Saturday and Noosa won 1-0. Jake Jenkins scored Noosa’s goal and was awarded player of the week for his fantastic efforts.
