A word from the President

On a lovely autumn day, I was lucky to be able to delegate my 13^th girls managerial duties, to watch 8 Christchurch United teams playing on Saturday at various locations around the city. I met parents from 9^th & 10^th grade teams, watched 8^th grade practice before their game, 11^th grade Hawks at Avonhead finish with an resounding win, 18^th grade thump FCTwenty11, our Div 3, Presidents, PDL & Div 1 all playing at Spreydon Domain.

I want to congratulate our members, family and supporters for the wonderful way our club is represented. Our players looked awesome in club colours, was not hard to find in a sea of yellow (CashTech) or red (FCTwenty11), the positive way in which the “beautiful game” was being played, and the smile on faces was a joy to behold.

I was immensely proud to be wearing my club jacket and cap around the “opposition” fields.

Thank you to our supporters who came to watch our first Chatham Cup game on home soil for a number of years. Unfortunately we didn’t get the result we wanted but we have another go with the English Cup Tuesday 13^th at ASB against Nomads. Please support our team.

We had a number of past committee members who came back to join us in the clubrooms after the game, who commented on what a great job our Committee has done in the last 5 months. I support their comments. Awesome job team.

Well done to all

Go the RAMS!

Tina Karreman
