WALLSEND FOOTBALL CLUB (14 YEARS) AND FOOTBALL MID NORTH COAST (12 YEARS) NAMED 2017 TELSTRA STATE SAP CHAMPIONS FOR GIRLS

Wallsend Football Club claimed the Telstra State SAP Champions title in the 14 Years with only going down in one match out of the tournament, whilst Football Mid North Coast was undefeated in the 12 Years.

Wallsend FC had been a standout across the three-day tournament in the 14 Years, netting 18 goals and never looking in doubt with only going down once in the final day of the championships 2-0 against Football Mid North Coast.

Striker Sophie MacDonald was lethal for Wallsend scoring 10 goals out of the seven games.

In the 12 Years, it was looking to be a tight contest between four of the teams, however, Football Mid North Coast held strong on the final day winning both of their final matches.

Mid North Coast had the best defense by far in the competition with not conceding any goals throughout the three days.

Northern NSW’s Head of the Technical Panel, Ryan Campbell, said Wallsend (in the 14s) and Mid North Coast (in the 12s) were clear standouts across the three days.

“Overall, both of the teams played extremely well as a team across the tournament and were clear standouts,” Campbell said.

“However, these championships are all about the opportunity for players test themselves against fellow Northern NSW players.”

“The Championships give Northern NSW’s Technical Panel a valuable opportunity to identify talented players who possess the ability to progress to the next level in their playing career,” Campbell concluded.

Walk 4 Brain Cancer 2017

You are welcome to come for a fun filled morning of entertainment and walk around the grass at Newcastle Greyhounds to raise awareness and funds for Cure Brain Cancer Foundation.

Wallsend FC support the Cure Brain Cancer Foundation.

Below is a note from Sarah Gallagher.

My husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor a year and one month after we got married. He endured endless surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation treatment over his 5 year battle. The most important surgery was the one performed by Dr Teo. Dr Teo was giving my husband the chance to see his daughter be born. Without this surgery my husband would not have had that chance and spend 8 weeks with her creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Whether you are walking in memory of a loved one, supporting your family or friends, or just feel passionate to help make a difference to the survival rate for people living with brain cancer we would love to see you.

Gather your family and friends together to enjoy a fun filled morning of entertainment and walk around the grass at Newcastle Greyhounds to raise awareness and funds for Cure Brain Cancer Foundation. Why not bring a gazebo and make a day of it. The walk is accessible for all, it is on grass but prams and wheelchairs are able to be pushed.

There will be lots to do including a warm up with the beautiful Ebonnie, a jumping castle and swings, face painting and balloon animals for the kids, a BBQ to purchase food and refreshments, a coffee van, DJ DVS, and a raffle.
