a_04


Congratulations go to all the teams which participated in the Division One Youth League as they all made a significant contribution to the overall standard of the competition.
Ten of the twelve clubs will be represented in the finals series which begins at Valentine Sports Park on Sunday with only newcomers Hakoah a Springwood missing out. Best wishes go to all the team in the play-offs and I hope you will all enjoy the experience.
The Club Championship
Blacktown Spartans had already claimed the Club Championship and they ended the season with a wining margin of twenty-four points after they took ten from their visit to tenth placed Stanmore Hawks while Mt Druitt Town Rangers finished in second spot following their haul of eleven points at home to sixth placed Sydney University.
Fraser Park were seven points further back at third after they bagged eleven points at home to eleventh placed Springwood and Gladesville Ryde Magic were nine points further adrift following their gain of six points from the three games played at ninth placed Rockdale City Suns
Camden Tigers finished fifth when they grabbed eleven points from their trip to twelfth placed Hakoah and Hurstville City Minotaurs ended up at seventh after they earned eight points at eighth placed Hills United.
Just in case you were wondering, Football NSW has long since decided that there is nothing ?minor? about winning the competition and so the team at the top of the table at the end of the season is called the ?Premiers? and the winner of the Grand Final is called the ?Champions?.
