New Zealand captain Bill Tuiloma, back in the country for the first time in the lead up to the tournament after being released by French Ligue 1 side Olympique Marseille, opened the scoring in the sixth minute with a rasping free kick struck from 25 yards. The visitors levelled things up in the 27th minute when Brian Rochez Meija clipped the ball around New Zealand goalkeeper Oliver Sail when through one-on-one after a swift counter attack. Honduras, who will contest Group F along with Germany, Fiji and Uzbekistan, went 2-1 http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ up in the 63rd minute when Albert Elis Martinez finished well inside the New Zealand penalty area. http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ NZ U20 Squad for FIFA World Cup New Zealand play the tournament opener against Ukraine in Auckland on May 30.

It also saw Chargers head honcho Fozz tying the knot - congrats! The Prems were at home to Tech, and although an early goal from Rupert put them ahead, Tech banged in three for a solid halftime lead. A goal to the impressive Captain Cam after the break saw some pressure on the visitors before they scored a fourth to seal it. It was a decent effort from the boys, up against a strong Tech side that seems to have a spot on mix of experience and youth. Roslyn benefited from the experienced composure of Patrick Ebanda, and Cam, Blair, and Shea were excellent, with Shea’s performance at left fullback earning him player of the day. The Seconds had a 2-2 draw against Tech in a fairly even affair. After conceding early on, Peewee’s lads took a 2-1 lead into the break after goals to Mikey and, believe it or not, Jez, who apparently scored a blinder (according to Jez anyway). After a stunning start to the season the boys are just lacking that killer instinct at the moment and couldn’t quite put the opposition away. Johnny Madden had a stormer down the right wing and picked up POD. The Thirds were also up against Tech, and both teams scored one unconverted try apiece in a low scoring 5-5 draw at Culling Park. It wasn’t a great first half effort as they conceded four with another goal to Dave Alsop the only bright spot for PV’s lads. It was an impressive second half effort though to score four, with another to Dave and goals to Mal, Ryan, and the indomitable rock Sauce scoring from halfway. Cam was great again and was POD. Good fightback from the boys. You can’t have a derby day without a tiny bit of controversy, and whilst there was a little, the 4th Blacks registered a deserved 7-2 win up against the Whites. Scotty Tierney made up for an own goal by providing 3 assists. Dyson was strong in midfield again and scored a goal, and Dorje, Jules, & Browny scored too. Phil capped the scoring with an acrobatic bicycle kick from 20 yards. Joey scored a fantastic goal for the Whites, chipping the keeper from distance, and Dom was good back from injury and the White’s POD. y, 2015 Football South’s AGM is at Logan Park on Sunda Sunday May y 31st Ma at 10am. Breakfast provided... ( only jesting.) Page 8 The Chargers conceded another first minute goal against Tech, and went into the break outplayed and three goals down after a scrappy first half which threatened to boilover but where we were our own worst enemies. The nightmarish threat of having Moose referee the second half saw the Wardrobe take the whistle and the second half was played in much better spirits. No goals in the second half, scoring is definitely the Achilles Heel for the Chargers this year. Club legend CR battled hard all day and picked up POD. Cam celebrates while a smiling Hibby looks on .. The Stallions didn’t quite click against Melchester but still got a 1-1 draw, with Jay hero & villain scoring both goals. The Originals had Pete in goals but even he couldn’t prevent them going down 1-5 to Cavvy. It was a decent first half effort from the boys with a goal to Tim and the score 1-1 at the break, but then hopes were dashed by conceding four quick goals. Mike Shotter was busy throughout and POD. The Moas travelled out to Memorial to take on Mosgiel with http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ both teams http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ struggling to get a full team together by kickoff. The Moas battled hard but went down 13, with Kevin channelling Roy Keane in a tough performance. The Colts got that winning feeling back by beating the Frotters 4-0 on the postage stamp. They were helped by a couple of own goals, and a great effort from Lyall in goals to keep a clean sheet. Scott Big derby game in the 45’s next week! Jarvis Page 9 Sunnyvale Sports Complex Green Island Premier Team versus Northern. A good game today where we needed to have a good performance and win. Unfortunately we had a patchy performance but did win 3 – 1 final score. 2 nil at half time and didn't put our other chances away from kick off. A good Northern team that never gave up and I can see why they have been putting pressure on the top teams in the competition. Goal scorers Ben Kiore, Jack Kirkwood and Reid Hulliman. MOTM Josh Dijkstra. Flem. The Division One team (Fletcher Cup) After a week of good training the 2nds came out firing against Northern on Saturday. We played well structured football with our back mob and forwards all playing with a lot of heart. Committed Tom, Sean and Jake made sure our transition was smooth which made things a bit easier for Tenn, Dave and Joe. Great performances from Mitch on debut. MOM Jake. Rory Crow The Division Two team. Great result today! Won 10 – 0. Change of some personnel and the guys stepped up and played some good football. We were rushing things in the top third but finally scored after 25 minutes. 3 – 0 at half time. The start of the second half was more than a wish come true. Six to seven passes and the ball placed in the back of the net!! Dominated the game and great to have guys coming back from injury. Jake scored a hat trick, Ross scored two in his 15 minute come back. A huge welcome back to Sam Brouwer who got 25 minutes. MOM Sam Dore a dominant performance. Wayne Henderson The Division Three team versus Northern 4A. Probably our best performance of the season but not the result we deserved. Two mistakes were punished. Their keeper played well. Not a bad game overall. Just not the result we wanted. Averley Rhys Prescott Page 10 The Blue machine purrs on .. Andys seniors played Uni and won 5-2 being 2-0 up after 15 minutes and then sat back bossing possession but not threating the score card any further . Cody scored again and Issac got on the ledger. The second spell saw Issac score again - Uni pulled one back with a screamer which served as a wake up call and saw Eder score a better one straight from the restart . Tilt came on and missed one that was harder to miss - Reggie also got his trigger boot working .Ron our travelling statto reckoned we had 80% possession. We switched off with 20 to go Cody had another sound game and Reg was back to his old self however Hamish at the back got the pod. 2nds won 4-1 v varsity- stevie brooks instilling an unusual formation which worked well and was 3-1 up at the break. Phil Kelly & Riley both bagging a brace . Ray was superb in his first game and was duly given the nod for the pod. Riley replaced his gun for gloves and was solid in the sticks.Stevie said the lads Played as a full unit for first time and Phil played at such legendary level he got called into Football Souths mobile urine screening unit to determine if he's still human . Clints thirds are shorn of 9 on the injury list so his team was cobbled together from all corners and played their usualhttp://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ good game for 30 minutes. Seb & Hayden seeing plenty of ball and Jordan playing out if goals with bust finger was resolute at the back. Wee Jackie went in goals and http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ acquitted himself well. Usual story -once conceded the floodgates opened and the Island horde were rampant. Wee Tim & Sam kept ripping up the flank but with the back line resembling England's cricket team middle order (averaging over 50 ) at the end there was only going to be one winner. Monos Plainsmen won 13-0 over Northern, when asked who scored all we got was Phil scored 4 - and a screamer with Mono once again firing a blank. big Dan was late serving and early leaving with a blown calf . So had a go between the sticks along with another crock In Forbsie (perhaps they should train like those elite athletes in the 45+ grade, ) Pete faithfully nominated himself as pod being manager, ref, go to guy and generally just being a nice guy. Masters Gerries lost as well at Sunnyvale being a bit short. 1-0 down at h/t Justin had a stint in goals kept the score down to 0-3 Jeff Bell in his first game getting mom. Old Masters played Roslyn Moas which was played In good spirits apart from the last stanza when a resurgent Moa got sniff of an unlikely comeback . Being 3/0 up thanks to a dribbly Greg goal ( as in it bounced 4 times before creeping over the line ) . BT scored a cracker ( but he did miss an absolute bagful) and the last goal was a peach and pleasure to watch as a dipping swerving curving volley found the corner. 3-1 was final score Nev Mosgiel AFC, Club Quiz, Sat. 13th June, 7.30 pm Happy Hour 6.30 - 7-30 pm, $5 per person, Teams of 4-6 people, BYO nibbles Page 11 Chatham Cup Chatham Cup, Rnd. 2.

Both teams had a lot to prove with trying to distance from the bottom. Unfortunately things didn't go to plan for us in the first 15 minutes with conceding a couple of free kicks outside the box GI made us pay by scoring with both. The first one came from a deflection and then scored with a precise finish and the 2nd was hit straight inside the far post. It was always going to be tuff to comeback from that as GI normally defend pretty well. The rest of the first half was pretty even but we wasted another 1 on 1 with the keeper. 2nd half was a much better performance by the lads and we pulled one back when Greg (on his birthday) made good work out wide beating his defender and put in a great cross for Hendo to score. We put a lot of pressure on them in the last 20 minutes but couldn't get the second, and GI added a third in injury time with a well taken goal. FT 3-1. Mom Greg Thurlow.

There are so many actual and potential benefits to be derived from Dunedin hosting this world-wide event in Otago Stadium - we are part of the Global Game!!

FIFA is an agent for good in our global neighbourhood - Oceania - not only for football development but increasing opportunities for progress in social welfare, education and health The World Cups are the pinnacle of elite achievement, but there is so much more happening at the base of the pyramid, the Grassroots of the Game.

The girls started strongly and were one up in the first minute with a goal from Chelsea back from the States. The wind got stronger and Varsity playing into the wind managed to get one back and that’s how the first half ended 1-1. Tech started strong in the second half going 21 up in the 46th minute with a goal from Georgia Brown who worked hard in the midfield. Then Varsity pulled one more back to make it 2-2. The fitness, wind and composure started to go Tech’s way with three more goals to make the final score 5-2 to Tech. POD Coral Seath The Roslyn Women Prems took on Queenstown this week on a beautiful Ellis Park. In a game in which we looked to bounce back from previous weeks, we put out a strong team, with returning Captain Jordyn Walker and our little pocket rocket Sammy Murrell. 20 minutes into the game Sammy put one in the back of the old onion bag, we kept the 1-0 lead till half time. The girls weren't having the greatest game and that showed, 3 minutes into the second half Queenstown brought the score to 1 - 1. The girls went back to work, trying to get back to the old ways of passing the ball and building the play up, this paid off with Player of the Day Una Madden netting a close range goal. 2-1 with 15 to go Queenstown scored off a free kick, 2 - 2 it stayed, sadly we only took the one point away but the season is long and our girls will come back from this. Next week we have yet to find out our opponents but sure to be a good game Hamish Whites played Balclutha in Balclutha and while the whether wasn't that flash neither were we. Two down at the half to a side who had played better than us and although we had the wind in the second half we couldn't pull anything back. Good performances in the middle of the park with Carina and Esti. Kelsey played well up front with POD to Janet on the left.

Find out what’s happening... on Sunda Sunday May Page 25 100 Football Festivals in NZ ! Auckland and Christchurch were the host cities for two Grassroots Coaching Courses as FIFA’s Legacy Program for the FIFA U-20 World Cup New Zealand 2015 got underway. A total of 35 coach educators from all seven New Zealand Football Federations took part in the courses and included two Grassroots Festivals involving more than 240 children at Auckland’s Henderson Valley Primary School and Christchurch’s St. Albans Primary School. FIFA Instructor Mauricio Marques, who has an extensive background in Futsal and is Head of Coach Education for football’s governing body in Brazil, the CBF, was delighted by the spontaneity shown by the children during the festival. “The coach educators proposed to the children to play without shoes and the response was tremendous. All the boys and girls took their shoes off and had a more sensitive touch on the ball and the natural grass field. They had a great time and it all happened spontaneously,” he said. New Zealand Football Junior Development Manager Owain Prosser said while fun was the focus for the children, the participating coaches took the opportunity to plan 100 other festivals that will happen in each of the Host Cities of the FIFA U-20 World Cup New Zealand 2015. Special festivals for girls will happen on 6 June when the Football Ferns open their FIFA Women’s World Cup campaign in Edmonton against the Netherlands. “The FIFA Grassroots Football Festivals are a fantastic opportunity for New Zealand Football to continue to grow the game, by engaging new children in football, providing positive experiences and helping them fall in love with the game. “It has also been very successful at developing New Zealand’s grassroots coaches, providing the knowledge and empowering them to develop their players, volunteers and clubs in their local community,” Prosser said. Auckland and Christchurch will each host nine matches featuring teams such as New Zealand, Ukraine, United States, Germany, Honduras, Fiji, Uzbekistan and Brazil. The FIFA U20 Final is scheduled for Saturday 20 June at the same venue with a 5pm NZST kick-off.

A big weekend of football for the Teams at Dunedin Technical with 3 teams playing away at Ellis Park. The Premier men were hoping to bring back some silverware from Ellis Park which was lost to Roslyn last season and with that there would also be three valuable points. Aaron had good squad of players to choose from despite no training on Thursday due to the weather. It was a bit of a see saw game but the Premier men rode the storm despite a few niggles here and there, final score 4-2 win to Tech. Richards Fletcher cup boys were early at Ellis Park in which was game that was without it’s drama. Thehttp://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ teams were locked at 1-1 when Tech keeper Liam was taken out in the box when he clearly had the ball in both hands as the video shows. http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ Unfortunately to the disbelief of both teams the incident was missed and Roslyn begrudgingly netted a goal to go 2-1 up at halftime. The second half went down hill from here with Kai ending up at ED with what was thought to be a fracture and some not so nice verbal comments meant for an ugly second half. Tech managed to pull one back to make the final score 2-2 Craig’s 3rds had a game of two halves which saw his teamed pumped up at the start and very flat at the end. The boys were 4-1 up at half time and looked to be sailing to victory but the game changed in the second half when Roslyn pulled one back to be 4-2 then 5-2 to Tech then 5-3,5-4Page 29 5-5 Tech had a chance to sneak in a winner right at the end but it was not to be and the final score 5-5 and a very deflated coach and team. Stu’s 4ths continue to struggle and some late withdrawals due to illness and injuries meant that Stu was scraping for the bear 11 to start This obviously meant some late positional changes and tactics but it was all to little to late going down 4-0. Did Andy score ? The Tech Scarfie 5ths continued to grow as a team and play some good football only losing one so far this season. Final score was 33. The young 5ths are taking some hard knocks in lessons of Senior football this season but all this will help with their development. Each week they train and turn up on Saturdays to make their coach Phil proud of his team. Unfortunately the results have not gone their way this season despite some strong displays and again went down 4-0 to Roslyn. In the Masters grades the Colts were looking forward to a torrid battle against the Hobbits at the Oval. The Colts going into the game sitting top with the Hobbits back in 4th The scene was set for what could be a turnaround season for the Colts. The game was even for the first 20 minutes with both teams having chances. The Hobbits broke through first to lead 1-0 at halftime. The Colts still had a chance but going down 2-0 with 15 minutes to go seem to deflate them a little. Then the Colts pulled one back from a one/two with Richard and Callum to make it 2-1 with 10 to go. Despite some strong pressure in the Hobbits goal box the score never changed and 2-1 was the final score POD Shane Mathews. The Frotters were also out at Ellis park on number 4. Unfortunately when you score 3 own goals it is going to be a tough day at the office. LT was humbles in his speeches and is now the top scorer for the Frotters albeit in his own net. POD LT Dunedin Tech would like to pass on it’s condolences to the Family friends and members of Albion cricket club who lost one of it’s Stalwarts Warwick (Fox) Larkins last week.

The workshop was led by Brisbane Roars W-League side Head Coach Belinda Wilson, pic right. Football Souths Women’s Development Officer Hayley Stirling attended the workshop and took plenty of learning and networking from the event. “The week was a fantastic opportunity to get together with other female coaches around the country to share our past and present coaching experiences,’ she said. It was especially beneficial to share ideas and Belinda thoughts regarding the National Women’s League teams we have been involved with. I’m confident the league will continue to produce players and coaches capable of performing on the national and international stage and workshops like these will go along way to ensure thats the case. Belinda’s leadership and insight of her football knowledge and footballl experiences as a FIFA instructor and Head Coach have given all of the candidates involved a real sense of what can be achieved with the right application of hard work and commitment.” The workshop gave candidates an opportunity to be involved in analyzing games to find the football problem, defining and designing the training session and delivering the training during the practical component of the workshop. There was also significant emphasis and time put on each candidates playing model, playing philosophy and playing principles. “Belinda was fantastic in really asking the right questions to make us think about our playing models. As coaches, it’s so easy to forget to really define your team’s playing model and style, so it’s been refreshing to look within ourselves to challenge why we are doing what we do with our players and to find areas where we can evolve our playing model. The detail involved with the playing model and session planning Belinda took us through was outstanding and thats certainly what I’m aspiring towards.” 16 Female candidates and 2 male candidates were in attendance for the workshop which included two former Football Ferns in Kristy Hill and Jenny Bindon. All candidates were involved in either National Women’s League teams, NTC coaching and FTC coaching. Hayley Page 32 Hayley Varsity met the high flying plainsmen on the Caledonian ground hoping for a strong defensive effort to frustrate the free scoring visitors. With injuries keeping 2 varsity centre backs on the side-lines Tom Morley slipped back into a 5 man defensive unit from midfield. Sadly any hopes for a protracted stalemate went out of the window within 10 minutes when mosgiel opened the scoring with a fine controlled chip finish. With the defensive plan in tatters the varsity side lost their way and defensive frailties and errors were ruthlessly punished resulting in a second and 3rd goal and a 3-0 halftime score. The second half saw a structural change and with it a new team emerged to bring the game to mosgiel. Jeremy Fong pulled one back with one of the finest finishes you will likely see on the Caledonian ground, a first time rocket into the mosgiel http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ top corner. http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/ This led to a short period of intense pressure from the home side before Eder Franchini decided to replicate the feat with a only slightly less impressive piledriver into the top corner of the varsity goal effectively ending the contest. Fong found the net again later on with a good finish deceiving the keeper bringing the score to 5-2 and some consolation to the varsity team. A vastly improved 2nd half from the university team and encouraging for the rounds to come but the 1st half damage was too much to recover from. MoM for University shared between Jeremy Fong for his 2 goals and Seb Brown for his tireless running. Page 33 Daz
