fsot_17


ONE TO WATCH: Normally FSOT would profile a young up and coming junior player but we felt compelled to feature a whole team this week – the MARCONI STALLIONS Under 13 Premier Youth League side. The reason is simple. In 23 competitive matches this season the Young Stallions have won 23 times, scored 149 goals and conceded just six!! That’s some record!!
CELEBRITY CHALLENGE: It’s been a very popular “competition” with Celebrities like Damien Leith (Idol winner), Michelle Bridges (Biggest Loser), Deano Gladstone (Bondi Rescue), Dr Chris Brown (Bondi Vet), Libby Trickett (Olympic Champion), Adam Goodes (Sydney Swans) and Nick Carle (Sydney FC) taking up the Challenge. This week, world number two surfer SALLY FITZGIBBONS is out to break Libby’s record of 20 points. Sally sets a benchmark which will be very difficult to beat!! It’s a Celebrity Challenge you won’t want to miss!!
COACHING TIP: Football NSW High Performance Manager PAUL BENTVELZEN is back for another coaching tip. Paul will guide us in the basic art of passing the ball with the help of players from Project 22.
MY CLUB: BRADON “NUGGET” CLISSOLD might be just 12yo but he is more than comfortable in front of the camera. “Nugget” takes us behind the scenes at the CAMPBELLTOWN CITY QUAKE Futsal club, who are preparing for the 2010/11 McDonalds NSW Premier League Futsal competition. Last season, the Quake won three Grand Finals.
STAR OF THE WEEK: It’s rare to find anyone playing competitive football – week in, week out – but 70yo goalie KEITH DAVIS has stood the test of time – quite literally. Keith is playing for Gymea United in the Over 45s competition in the Sutherland Association. Davis is obviously the oldest player at the club which boasts 1427 registered players – the most in the Association.
FUTSAL COACHING: Futsalroo GREG GIOVENALI and NSW Futsal coach JAMIE AMENDOLIA are back to continue educating us about the Indoor game. This week Greg and Jamie explain the key positions in Futsal – Goalie, Pivot, Flanker and Target. Once again, they have been assisted with some players from the Sydney City Futsal Academy.
NSW PREMIER LEAGUE: It’s the first week of the end of season Finals series. In the elimination final, APIA LEICHHARDT TIGERS, who were bottom of the league in round nine, take on old rivals the MARCONI STALLIONS while in the qualifying final BLACKTOWN CITY FC is at home to SYDNEY UNITED. We will have highlights of both matches.
GOAL OF THE WEEK: There’s more great nominations in our weekly competition where one lucky winner will receive a great gift pack from HUMMEL. DAKOTA KLJAJIC (Glenwood Redbacks Girls U/14s) and JAMIE DE SMIT (Tasmania Institute of Sport) are amongst this week’s contenders.
