Emerging Jets vs Central Coast @Lake Macquarie Regional Football Facility

It’s another F3 Derby of sorts on Sunday as the Emerging Jets take on Central Coast.

Both teams are new to this seasons competition and will be looking to bounce back from disappointing round one defeats. A victory for either will be a great confidence booster to the young teams.

North West Sydney Koalas vs Manly United @Cromer Park

The Koalas recorded a smashing round one victory and will be looking to build on that result. United had the bye first up and will look to get their start in the Cup underway with a positive result.
