The Faith Warriors are the CIFL Sevens Champions!

We were blessed with another cracking day of football this year. Nga Toa Whakapono – The Faith Warriors started the day with a glint in their eyes and played a strong physical game all the way to the final. There they met Reformed Rovers who had beaten them 2-0 only an hour earlier in the round robin. Both teams remained goaless through two halves and extra time taking the match to a penalty shoot-out. The Rovers were first shoot and put 2 of 5 in the back of the net. The Warriors finished up with 3 goals and the Ansvar Cup!

AC United was a big winner on the day. They collected 3 trophies at the prize giving (Golden Boot, Highest Points and Div 2 Shield), they also made the semi-final and their nominated MVP, Daniel Larsen, was drawn as the winner of the Hanmer Springs get-a-way.

Thanks again to everyone who participated on the day!

That’s it for 2012. See you back when registrations open in February.
