6th Grade - Silver Whales - 14th June 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER SEALS RESULT: SILVER LOBSTERS 10-0 SILVER WHALES PLAYER OF THE DAY: DANIEL JOON ANH COACH: HAYDEN AND MIKE Hello all once again, hope all is well and the winter blues have been kept well away from all of your families. First of all I would like to apologize for my lack of a match report in the last couple of weeks due to work commitments and a rugby trip to Wellington. That I know is a pretty lame excuse and really, truth is that I have just been plane lazy. Those players who missed out on player of the day reports were Mia Bolton and Daniel joon Anh. p.s Thank you very much to Mia’s dad Martin for doing last weeks report, maybe I could keep you on in future when I once again get slack and lazy, thanks once again.

6th Grade - Silver Whales – 30th May 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER SPRATS RESULT: SILVER WHALES 2-3 SILVER SPRATS PLAYER OF THE DAY: BENJAMIN COACH: MARTIN BOLTON (STAND IN COACH) Hi all – well how proud was the stand in coach. Not only was he fortunate to have the sun and the crowd on his side, but also what an outstanding performance from all 6 players in the Whales team. It was a tough start in the first third with 3 quick Orca goals but from then on it was all whales.

6th Grade - Silver Lobsters – 23rd May 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER SPRATTS RESULT: SILVER LOBSTERS 2-4 SILVER SPRATTS PLAYER OF THE DAY: Dominic Thomson – Lots of hard work & great speed. COACH: IAN BONIFACE Being back to full strength with Dominic’s return we were confident of a good fast game. With it being a bit cooler and a few coughs & sniffs we knew that we needed to get moving quickly to keep ourselves warm.
14th Grade - Girls - 23rd May 2008 What an amazing way to end the grading round. You all played extremely well. Thank you Lauren H for volunteering to stand down this week, once again someone steps up and makes my job a pleasure, Thank You!!!!.. Performance on Saturday was second to none, control, energy, and willingness to play football was outstanding, you absolutely cut them to pieces, they had no answer!!!!. The only thing we need to do is put the ball past their keeper and not into her hands and we won 7++ to nil. They had nothing in attack due to some enthusiastic chasing back and defending by Grace, Hayley, Lauren C, Chelsea, Lisa, Joanne. You stood up and showed them that you never back down cleared the ball when you had to and passed when it was on, you lot were fabulous. Can’t say enough about how well you ALL played, can’t even sleep in ( started writing at 7.30am on a SUNDAY!!!! ) Lydia, Ashley A, Rebecca in the midfield just took the match by the scruff of the neck with control and non stop pressure on Manurewa’s midfield, they had no answer to your relentless pressure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. One of the big things I noticed on Saturday was the amount of players sitting in front of goal ready to score, first half opportunities were one after the other and you got shots away which is what it is all about. What I like is the midfield supported the front players as well as taking shots, great. Our wing play from first half Hayley and second half Ashley A and Nicole T for the entire game was great, wide play cutting back, you lot from the very start were like a can opener on their team, you just opened them up, dragged players wide put balls back into the middle. Awesome!!!!!!!. Not sure if you noticed Hayley but when you just followed their number 7 and literally forced her to put the ball out for our throw, rather then trying to get the ball, # 7 was so frustrated by your presence her body language was down for all the game, really can’t say enough about that type of play….No options for the opposition means you are just are controlling the game without the ball!!!!! Upfront with Nicole L, Timea, Amy, all looked great and your team could only ask one thing of you,,,,don’t stop doing what your doing. Pressure Pressure Pressure! Any other keeper you would have scored many goals, that girl last year at 12 years old made the Auckland under 13 and the Weir Rosebowl top side, supposedly the number one keeper in Auckland for her age????...I now one that could be better!!!! Well if we can put it past her next time and not at her you will thrash Manurewa. Comments after the game from players. Nicole Loader "We trusted each other" Lydia "I didn’t strike because I wasn’t comfortable" If that’s how you are thinking after 7 weeks you are scaring me, I look forward to the next 10!!!!!!. Cause by then I am expecting great thing because trusting each other in how we play is the biggest step in the right direction and shooting ONLY when you are comfortable is what I have been asking for, brilliant!!!!!!... As I said at half time IF they score it will be luck not their skill that gets the goal and I don’t mind losing to a team that flukes the win, frustrated by it, but not a victory in my book. See you Monday You lot rock!!! Happy coach!!! Carl

6th Grade - Silver Whales - 17th May 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER SQUIDS RESULT: SILVER SQUIDS 4-2 SILVER WHALES PLAYER OF THE DAY: TRAYE WILDBORE COACH: HAYDEN AND MIKE Hello once again to all. Well Saturday morning rolled around once more and after a coffee or two I, along with many other parents were off to football for a great early morning sports fix. For the ever improving, Silver Whales today’s fixture could not have come sooner with all my eager footballers once again turning up like they were the ones that had the coffees and probably Red Bulls. Where do they get such energy? From the outset the Whales got stuck in with Daniel joon Ahn once again showing how far his football has improved this season. Mia Bolton and Jayden Ruhe were once again relentless on attack and defence while Phoenix Wilson made the squids think twice about dribbling in her direction. For the Whales player of the day Traye Wildbore played a great all round game with some thumping kicks downfield, some solid tackling and a few close misses at goal. Well done Traye on a great performance along with all your Whales team mates and great goals. They were just awesome. A special mention and get well soon goes out to Benjamin Gits who unfortunately has come down with the Chicken Pox. Hope you feeling better and you back soon as the Whales are missing you and we will be a much stronger team with you back. Cheers Whales and make sure your rooms are clean and the dishes and lawns are done, toddle pip

6th Grade - Silver Whales - 10th May 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER LOBSTERS RESULT: SILVER LOBSTERS 11-0 SILVER WHALES PLAYER OF THE DAY: DANIEL JOON ANH COACH: HAYDEN AND MIKE Another Saturday morning comes around and the weather gods were not so kind to us with light drizzle and threatening rain but it did not dampen the Whales spirits as they once again turned up to the park with beaming smiles. Benjamin Gits and Traye Wildbore once again gave there all in all aspects of the game while Phoenix Wilson, Jayden Ruhe and Mia Bolten continued there great form with another non-stop performance. Pick of the bunch this week went to Daniel joon Anh who over the last few weeks has really come out of his shell and is starting to really get stuck in to his football and also giving the opposition a real headache when he presses forward on attack. Congratulations to you Daniel and keep up the great work. Finally to my Whales, you are all doing just great and I cant wait for next Saturday, so keep your rooms tidy and help mum and dad with the lawns and dishes and I will see you then. Cheers

6th Grade - Silver Whales - 3rd May 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER KINGFISH PLAYER OF THE DAY: PHOENIX WILSON COACH: HAYDEN AND MIKE Another cold but fine morning dawned on us once more as the Silver Whales took to the football field for the third time this season. Another great game played by Mia Bolten and Jayden Ruhe and awesome effort and team work from Benjamin Gits, Daniel joon Ahn, and Traye Wildbore. The kids seem to be having plenty of fun and that makes myself as a parent thrilled to see the children having a go and enjoying themselves. A special mention must go to Phoenix Wilson for her outstanding defence and eagerness to get stuck in. Phoenix was definitely the reason some of the oppositions shots at goal, were either kicked firmly away or the pressure she placed on them made there shots go well off target. So - well done to Phoenix and to all the Whales. You are all making your coach and all your parents very proud. Looking forward to next weekend, cant wait!!!.

6th Grade - Silver Whales - 12th April 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER PIRANHAS RESULT: SILVER WHALES 2-8 SILVER PIRANHAS PLAYER OF THE DAY: JAYDEN RUHE COACH: HAYDEN WILDBORE Hello everyone, hope all is well. For our second weekend of Football ever, the Silver Whales once again showed up full of excitement with an energy in which only a child under six can show at that time of the morning. Much to the delight of the parents we were given the later game at 9 so this week breakfast lasted for about ten minutes instead of two like the previous weekend. Anyway - enough of the dribble, WE SCORED OUR FIRST TWO GOALS. Yep, that’s right, if only I could have bottled up the emotions all of the children showed after that first goal. It was priceless. Benjamin Gits had some good little runs with the ball at his feet and some great encouragement from his Father on the sideline. Well done. Daniel joon Ahn, Phoenix Wilson and Traye Wildbore were awesome in defence and attack helping their team mates out. Also throughout the entire game with some good chanting coming from the sidelines while they were substitutes. Mia Bolton who was last week’s player of the day was again outstanding and played with lots of passion and controlled aggression. Jayden Ruhe was every where from the first whistle to the last and played like he had been playing for three or four years. Jayden has a great sporting mind and is going to be a great natural sportsman. Jayden was the well deserved player of the day. Well done Jayden. Finally team, I would like to thank you for the happiness you bring to your parents even though you may not understand that just yet. Hayden Wildbore

6th Grade - Silver Whales - 5th April 2008 OPPOSITION: SILVER SPRATS RESULT: SILVER WHALES 0-12 SILVER SPRATS PLAYER OF THE DAY: MIA BOLTON COACH: HAYDEN WILDBORE Hello everyone, welcome to the first of many match reports this season. Firstly I would like to thank our opposition for the day, (the Sprats) for such a great game. Well a very early start to the day but the weather played its part and all the kids look pretty excited on arrival. From the first whistle our two young girls Mia Bolton and Phoenix Wilson got stuck in and gave the boys a bit of a hurry up. With some good passing and strong kicking they soon had us up the field and on attack. Daniel joon Ahn and Benjamin Gits were tireless on defence and never gave up no matter what. Jayden Ruhe played a solid all round game always keen to attack but also falling back to defend when ever needed., he had a good feel for where to be and when. Traye Wildbore made some great breaks with Jayden up the middle of the field and only just missed the goal on a couple of occasions. Mia Bolton on four or five occasions chased the Sprats main strike weapon and not once did she ever give up. She showed great determination and the pressure she applied resulted in quite a few missed opportunities. So all and all a very good start to the season and as a coach I am very proud of all of you. Let’s keep having lots of fun and soon we will get our first goal.YIPPEE Hayden Wildbore

3rd Grade North Town - Milan - 5th April 2008 OPPOSITION: WESTERN SPRINGS 10 RED RESULT: SPRINGS 4-1 BBAFC PLAYER OF THE DAY: ALISTER KINCAID COACH: AARON HARTLEY Whilst not reflected in the score, this was a great first outing for the team. With a mix of both new-comers and follow on players from previous years, the team worked well as a unit with all players looking for and creating gaps. Some great defensive work by the ‘girl power’ of Morgan Blackmore & Courtney Chellew made the opposition work hard to capitalize on their scoring opportunities. A new player to the code this year, Taylor Clare, put in a huge effort in both his first half goal keeping and second half forward play duties. The mid field attack and defense was controlled largely by Bradley Hartley, who possibly put in the best effort I have witnessed from him during his time with BBAFC The forward efforts of Luke Harding, Jamie Pearson, Daniel Kyle, Nicholas Voykovich, John Bulay are to be commended. John Bulay also took up the challenge of goal keeping in the second half. Our player of the day, Alister Kincaid, took advantage of the opportunities afforded him and was unlucky on several occasions (as were all our forwards) not to score the much needed goals. Alsiter demonstrated some fantastic individual skills whilst still being aware that soccer is a team game. Western Springs fielded a determined and talented team that benefited from their height advantage. As a coach and parent, I am proud of the effort put in by the team. We had a great game, we displayed a desire to work as a team and most importantly, WE HAD A GREAT TIME!! Aaron Hartley
10th Grade Div 2 Season Report 30th August 2006
What a great season for the team - they won all 6 games in the Division 3 Grading Games and earned a promotion into Division 2 for the competition proper. In the competition the lads completed 6 wins and 3 draws of which 2 were against the 1 st and 2 nd placed sides and finished 3rd! They remained undefeated in all 15 games throughout the season and scored 68 goals and conceded only 12. It is important to note that all of our players are actually 9 th Graders playing in 10 th Grade!! Despite the age and sometimes huge physical difference our lads played with terrific commitment, enthusiasm and skill throughout the season. The improvement shown by each player individually and as a team unit has been outstanding and is testimony to their work ethic at practice and team spirit. We have been lucky to have not only a great bunch of lads (not one complaint all year) but also a fantastic group of supportive parents which made a significant difference – thank you to all who supported the lads. Well done to everyone on a most enjoyable season! Bryan Young, Mike Nevines, Mike Fairweather. 10th Grade Div 1 match report 28th July
What a great turn out by the parents to support the boys in their final game of the season against Eastern Suburbs. The boys played really well, with some exceptional passing resulting in goals being scored. Joshua our goalie even had some time out on the pitch, while Myles went into goal. The team is undefeated for the season resulting in being championship winners of our division. Well done boys, what a great season. Thanks to everyone who has supported the team, the time and effort our coach Dennis has put into them, and the effort the boys have shown not only on Saturdays but at practice every week. 13th Grade Girls Division match report 15th July It seems like "Girls Rule" at Bucklands Beach soccer club, with all three girls teams leading their respective divisions with half the competition complete. The 13th grade division 2 girls have reversed the results of losses in the first round against both Birkenhead and Bay Olympic sides in the last two games to now have a 4 games / 4 wins record with 5 games remaining. This weeks encounter is against Western Springs "springers" and although this team have yet to record a win in the championship round, our approach will be the same as we have adopted against the leading teams. Now that we have managed wins over sides seeded second and third after the grading round, the girls 13th grade /2 have yet to play the sides seeded third (eastern suburbs gold) to be played at Lloyd Elsmore on 29/7, and the only other unbeaten side, and number one seeded side, Pukekohe, which is set down to be played as an away game and the last game of the season. All going well in our corner, this could shape up as the "final" and the result finding the championship winners of our division. Our girls are shaping up well and enjoying their football. We have no injury problems, our training attendances have been close to 100% for some time now, and the level of confidence and self belief within the team has never been better all year. .....So fingers crossed, and hoping we can maintain this unbeaten record till the end of the round! Karl Mirbach. 10th Grade Div 1 match report 4th July What a great day weather-wise the sun was shining. The boys turned out in great form to play Fencibles. Joshua secured our first goal after a few minutes of play; he just didn’t stop scoring - a total of 5 goals. Myles got a great goal taking the ball all the way up to score. The whole team played exceptionally well, with the strikers being on the ball throughout the game and the defense defending everything that came their way. Joshua (goalie) was on fire, sending the ball to the far end of the pitch every time. Well done boys what a great game and good win. Player of the Day went to Joshua Smith for outstanding play and team work. Final Score being 6-2 to BBAFC. Barcelona vs Porter match report 20th May
This was a hard game for Barcelona. There was lots of good play with William saving a few goals. The final score was 7 nil - the other team had such a good defence. Barcelona played well in the "mud bath" with lots of slippery kicks, good runs and fast running. Thank goodness our team did not have white shorts like the other team. Harry Jones wins the "player of the day". He was not scared of getting dirty and really put some gritty effort in. Attached is a pic of Harry. Well done everyone! Tracey 9th Grade Liverpool match report 20th May Liverpool again played with tenacity, extending their unbeaten run this season., Being 1-0 up for the first half, it semed an easy cruise to the end, holding the opposition well. But the wolves came back strong at the beginning of the second half and scored in the first five minutes. 1-1. Liverpool stuck to what they do best, keeping posession, and apassing the ball like pros, and added another two goals in the second half. YES done it again 3-1 win againt the wolves from Ellerslie - Player of the Day Ryan Mingard, for good passing skills and scoring a goal. Sokhi 10th Grade Div 1 match report 20th May An entertaining game against Ellerslie with the boys showing that passing the ball and backing up can bring the goals.
