 Shamrocks Vs Kawerau 8th Aug Shamrock won 4 :3 What
a game...!
After some hanging around..(Kawerau had double booked the pitch ) The Shammies finally kicked off! It was all go from the start with some great defence work from the Mightly Tyshi and Victor. Cameron was working hard at getting the ball back up to the striker and wings and Olivia was determined to be the Goalie Queen of the day!!! What was really noticeable was the fantastic calling from all of the Shamrock players, the Shammies were really marking their oppositon and spreading out across the pitch. Everyone was absolutley determined to work as a team and the goals were beautifully set up for Max Power to slam not 1, not 2 but 4 goals! Way to go Shamrocks....Coach Nige was absolutely over the moon the way you all played !!!!! Shamrocks Vs Rangitaiki Raiders 22nd Aug Shamrocks lost 3:1 After
having a couple of Saturdays off, The Shammies needed to be at the
pitch ready to kick off by 9am...!
The team probably needed to have a coffee each...it was a bit slow going....the Raiders were full on! However as the Shammies got into the game some great defence work was seen. Tyshi, Cameron and Hunter all were determined to get the ball down towards Seth, Cole and Max ready for them to score. Max was able to score one goal but the Raiders were absolutley determined to come back blazing and the Shamrocks went down 3:1. However team spirit was still high..the Shammies did enjoy their game. Shamrocks vs Saints Draw 2:2 Today the team were on fire.....determination written over each face of the Shamrock team....What a start...the defence and attack skills of the Shamrocks were incredible...and what team work. Goals were beautifully set up for Max...The first by Seth, a fantastic pass to MAx who was then able to slam it into the net...this was followed by another goal by Max. Miss Goalie Queen Olivia was awesome, attempt after attempt at goal by the Saints and Olivia saving every one. Cameron took one for the team with an almightly attack on a 'would be goal scorer' from the Saints....an almighty whack to the abdomen from the boot of the Saints player saw Cam the Man winded and having to carried from the field. Second half saw the Saints fired!! 2 goals in quick succession soon eventuated much to the disappointment of the Shamrock fans. Again the team rallied and the defence was out of this world thanks to Tyshi and Hunter. .Tyshi played the game of his life ...outstanding!!! Victor , Seth and Cole continued to really think about the game and were fantastic at marking the opposition, calling for the ball and showing real improvement Awakeri
Aces kicked off the game...it was all on..wothin 10 minutes Max had
scored the first goal for the Ohope Shamrocks....A great start!
However with in minutes...Max was back as the scoriing machine...he managed to chip the ball over one of the opponents head and straight into the goal...however the Aces came back and evened up the sore to 2:2 at half time. At half time Coach Nige gave the team a "motivational" pep talk and the Shamrocks came back onto the team fired and ready to go!....It was all on! Max was on fire and scored another 2 goals, Cameron took the ball from the opponents and kicked and chased the ball to score not 1 but 2 goals...one straight after the other! It was soon Seth's turn to fire a goal into the net...with a resounding kick within the goal box he secured the 7th goal for the Shammies!! The Shamrocks were now so fired up...Olivia was truly dominating as Goalie...she saved many attempts by the Aces and consequently kept them from scoring any more goals for the rest of the game. Mighty Tyshi was superb in defence! Cole, Victor, Rhianna and Hunter were absolutley on form, marking their oppositon and not letting the Aces get the ball. What a team! Max then went onto score another 2 goals The game finished with the Shamrocks winning 9:2. Well done Shamrocks!!!! Just a quick update on the Shamrocks progress. A fantastic game on Saturday the 20th against St Josephs....Shamrocks were the first to put 2 goals on the scoreboard. The whole team pulled together with Tyshi and Seth playing brilliantly in defence. Tyshi had his kicking boots on this game and was outstanding. At half time the Shamrocks were leading 3 nil thanks to Cameron saving several near attempts at goals by the Saints and the rest of the team really playing in their positions. Coach Nige was particularly impressed by the Shamrocks calling their team mates for the ball and marking their opposition. Second half..and after the team chant...." What are we called..SHAMROCKS!! " What do we like doing...WINNING...How do we do it...KICKING GOALS"....the Shamrocks were ready to Rock and Roll...Unfortunately so were the Saints and they came out firing...within 10 minutes the score was 3 all. Coach Nige had a nail biting few minutes and with some guidance from the sideline ( parents and coach) the Shamrocks were determined to win this game. Max, our mighty striker, took the ball from the oppositons half, kicked and chased the ball convincingly up towards the goal and with the most resounding kick directly planted the ball into the goal..ITS A WIN FOR THE SHAMMIES...4:3 !!! Tyshi was named Player of the Day With such a fantastic display of team work, Coach Nige decided to shout his formidable players lunch at KFC. Shamrocks Rock ! Week 3 A great game
against the Ohope Pirates.
Coach Nige set
the scene by reminding us to go out and play our best..it was our day
to shine!!
The Shamrocks
really came together as a team... we remembered to really think about
spreading out and marking our opposition. We also thought about kicking
and chasing the ball to get it near the goal.
Hunter and Max
really were trying hard at kicking and chasing the goal. Rhianna shone
in getting in and kicking the ball and trying to take it from the
opposition. Olivia and Cameron again shone as outstanding goalies.
Seth, Tyshi and Victor really went hard and showed outstanding defence
work.
Well done
Shamrocks....Max scored 2 goals and Cole scored 1. You won the game
against the Pirates 3 : 1.
Rhianna,
congratulations ..you were "Player of the day" for the most
improved player!
 Week 1 This week saw the Shamrocks playing Opotiki Opac. The game started really well with the
Shamrocks trying hard with their defence. Cole was the goalie in the
first half and saved some good attempts at goal by the Opacs.
Their was some excellent passing between Seth, Hunter ,Tyshi and Max. This meant that Max was able to really chase the ball and kicked several near goals..( which was nail biting stuff for the Shamrock parents) The game was very exciting and everyone was really trying hard. Olivia was really showing some great attacking skills and Rhiana was really thinking about marking the opposition and trying to get the ball when it was in the Opacs possession. The Opacs scored first but Max soon scored the Shamrocks their first goal of the season. The second half saw Victor as goalie and he really put a stop to some potential goals by the Opacs. However, the Opacs did manage to score another goal late in the second half. Although Shamrocks lost the game 2:1 it was very close and we all look forward to next week's game.
