‘... the second half of our season looks like being a thriller ... good luck to all our teams ... ’ Josh Easby, the editor of RED, assesses our senior teams’ chances of winning a title (or more) ... WE’RE ABOUT halfway through our winter season and it’s a good time to take stock of the progress of our senior men’s and women’s teams. Football is all about delivery on expectation — if you think you’re going to be champions, and finish second, it can be devastating. But if you expect to be relegated and dodge the bullet by one placing, you can finish the season with a heap of satisfaction. Obviously we started this season with high expectations for our men’s first team. WaiBOP Premiership champions in 2015 and runners-up last year, maybe this year would

be the one that finally delivered a title and promotion to the Northern League. Instead, we’re sitting mid-table after an inconsistent run of form. Our season’s not dead yet — not by a long stretch — but we’ll need sides like Waikato Unicol and Taupo to suffer slumps of form to give us a sniff at catching the leaders. By contrast, our young second team are top of the WaiBOP Championship and are unbeaten. Remember, this is the competition our first team was playing in only five years ago! They clearly are in the running for a trophy, as are our Waikato B team who are in second place in their competition after being promoted from the Waikato C division. Our B team were extremely wary about whether they could compete at the higher level but they are playing well. Cambridge supporters can also look to our women for another chance at title success. The first team currently lead the Waikato Women’s League and will qualify for the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Federation League in the latter stages of the season. The second half of the season looks like being a thriller. Good luck to all our teams!

Good results for our top men’s teams CAMBRIDGE’S TOP football teams travelled to Tauranga and both secured wins in WaiBOP regional competitions last weekend. In the Loaded WaiBOP Premiership, Cambridge cruised to a comfortable 4-0 win at Tauranga Boys College after leading 1-0 at the break. Scorers for Cambridge were Aaron Huesser (2), Tom Woutersen and Matt Wheeler. The win lifts Cambridge into sixth spot on the table, 11 points behind runaway leaders Waikato Unicol. This weekend, Cambridge get the chance to close the gap with the league’s leading teams when they host second-placed Taupo at John Kerkhof Park. While Cambridge’s first team were winning at the college, the club’s second team were fighting hard for a 3-2 victory across town at Tauranga City United with Callum MacLeod scoring a hat-trick. The unbeaten Cambridge side led 1-0 at the interval but kept their advantage till the end. The win ensured Cambridge consolidated their lead in the competition as they are now four points clear of second-placed Waikato Unicol, the only other undefeated side. Cambridge remain unbeaten and top of the Waikato Women’s League after a 0-0 draw against third-placed Melville United’s development team. The result maintains Cambridge’s onepoint lead over Melville United’s premier team as the Waikato section of the competition nears its end.
Cambridge, Melville and the competition’s other leading sides will soon go into a Waikato/Bay of Plenty competition to determine the best women’s team in the region. The Cambridge A men’s team won 2-0 at Te Aroha Cobras after a scoreless first half. The Cambridge goals were scored by Blerim Budila (45 mins) and Cameron Atherton (63 mins). In the Waikato B division, Cambridge kept up their winning streak with a 4-1 win against Claudelands Rovers B1 team. Goalscorers were Peter Buesnel (2), Alex Ball and Wayne Watson. The team sits in second place on the table, a point behind Claudelands Rovers B2 side who have a game in hand. The Cambridge D1 side lost 4-3 at Northern United while the D2 team lost 2-1 at Te Aroha Cobras. The Cambridge women’s B team lost 2-1 at Hamilton Wanderers. Madelaine Burnett scored an early goal for Cambridge but Wanderers scored a second-half winner. In the WaiBOP U-14 boys’ league, Cambridge lost 10-3 at Otumoetai, with Edward Kuoch scoring a hat-trick for the visitors. The Cambridge U-12 boys lost their WaiBOP Federation League match 2-1 to Hamilton Wanderers whose goals were scored by Fergus Williams and Sam Hawke.

Recognition for junior coaches THE THOUSANDS of junior coaches who generously give up their time are set to enjoy a well-deserved moment in the spotlight with McDonald’s and New Zealand Football once again teaming up to run the McDonald’s Junior Football Coach of the Year competition. Every year, over 6,000 coaches volunteer to help kiwi kids kick start their football dreams. They spend their weekends coaching local teams and making sure children get active, develop their football skills and, most importantly, have fun. Nominations are encouraged for positive behaviour both on and off the pitch, including supporting players positively from the touch line, introducing new players to the game and helping out in their local community. The most worthy recipients will all be rewarded with prizes on offer across three tiers. Three regional shortlist winners will be selected from each federation with each receiving a coaching pack – consisting of footballs, football bags, bibs and cones – while seven regional Coach of the Year winners will be provided with a t-shirt, shorts, socks, rain jacket, tactics board and trophy.
The overall prize for national Coach of the Year is an amazing football experience for two people in Abu Dhabi, including a behind-thescenes look at Auckland City’s preparations for the world’s premier club tournament. “As the primary supporter of junior football, McDonald’s are delighted to again be offering a competition for Coach of the Year,” says Simon Kenny, Head of Communications for McDonald’s NZ. “As a junior football coach myself, I recognise the importance of the coaching role and understand the commitment that is involved throughout the season.” Nominations are open until July 9 and shortlisted winners will be announced on August 14 while the regional winners will be confirmed four days later and the national winner unveiled on August 22. Last year’s winner was Katikati coach Nic Millichip.

World Cup winner to visit Waikato for workshops A TWO-TIME World Cup winner will visit the Waikato next month as part of New Zealand series of futsal coaching workshops. Marcos Sorato (46) will run a community workshop in Hamilton on July 17 and then an advanced workshop in Hamilton the next day. The first workshop costs $50 to attend while the second is $100. Online registrations can be made via the WaiBOP Football website (www.waibopfootball.co.nz).
Brazil’s Marcos Sorato. Photo: Courtesy of FIFA via Getty Images.
The Brazilian helped his country to backto-back titles at the FIFA Futsal World Cup – as assistant coach in 2008 and head coach in 2012 – but is now based in Dubai, from where he will travel to deliver a variety of coaching events across New Zealand in July. His appearance in this country is a huge coup for the small-sided, indoor game of futsal, which has grown rapidly since being brought under the banner of New Zealand Football in 2010. Coach Development Manager Steven Dillon is relishing the prospect of hosting Sorato and is excited about the impact of
his visit. He said: “We are delighted to be able to bring someone of Marcos’ stature, extensive futsal knowledge and expertise from operating at the highest levels of futsal to our shores.” “We are dedicated to bringing in the best people to be part of our coaching community and we believe these opportunities have the potential to be a huge catalyst for future futsal development across the country.” Futsal is one of five specialist pillars on the NZF Coach Development Pathway – the others being junior, youth, senior and goalkeeping – and there are now dedicated formal coach education offerings for the sport at both the advanced and community levels. To supplement the non-formal learning available outside of those courses, Sorato will run a string of workshops focusing on both strands of the coaching pathway with four advanced workshops and the same number of community workshops on offer in several different regions. Josh Margetts, a Futsal White who has recently joined New Zealand Football as Futsal Development Manager, will liaise with the host federations as project manager and is equally enthusiastic about welcoming Sorato. “The presence of Marcos Sorato in New Zealand is unprecedented and a huge step forward for futsal in this country,” he says. — Story courtesy of WaiBOP Football/NZ Football

Formed in 1956, the first Taupo senior team was entered in the Bay of Plenty competition but withdrew midway through 1957. In the 1960s Taupo twice reformed and twice folded as many of its players were workers at the Wairakei Power Project and work rosters rather than football determined the fate of the football club. Since then, Taupo AFC has emerged as a strong club with excellent facilities for men’s and women’s teams, as well as junior players. The club won the Federation 1 title in 2012 and were promoted from the WaiBOP Championship in 2016.

In 2012, Cambridge FC announced that John Kerkhof Park would also become the home base for Cambridge Baseball Club. 2013: Cambridge FC and the neighbouring Cambridge Harriers and Athletics Club began a partnership, enabling the football club to play some games at the adjacent athletics track while it developed John Kerkhof Park. In 2013, the club won the Soccer Shop Waikato Plate and hosted premium events such as the Soccer Shop Waikato Cup Final, the Waikato v Bay of Plenty All Stars game, and the WaiBOP Women's All Stars v WaiBOP National League side. In late 2013, the club was appointed as the home ground for five ASB Premiership matches for new franchise WaiBOP United. This meant Cambridge became one of six bases for national league football in New Zealand (the others are Auckland, Napier, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin).
The appointment led to the club becoming an all-year operation, with investment in better facilities including upgraded playing surfaces, new changing rooms (scheduled for mid–2014) and a new irrigation system. 2014: The club's first team finished runners–up in the 2014 WaiBOP Federation Division 1, while the U-15 team won the Federation Youth League. Our women won the Waikato Women's Cup. The Cambidge Lacrosse Club moved its playing base to John Kerkhof Park in 2014. In 2014, the club won a series of high profile awards for its work in football and in the wider community. WaiBOP Football named the club its 2014 Club of the Year for its successful efforts to host ASP Premiership fixtures and other premium matches. Cambridge also won two WaiBOP Best Practice awards in 2014 (for building partnerships with sponsors, and for the participation of women at our club). The club was named Waipa District’s 2014 Supreme winner for the Truspower Community Awards, becoming only the second sports club to take this award. This

also led to the club’s nomination for the national Trustpower Community Awards to be held in Wellington in March 2015. Cambridge completed its hat-trick of major awards in 2014, being named Waipa District’s Sports Club of the Year. We were finalists in the Waikato Sports Club of the Year while chairman Greg Zeuren was named Sports Administrator of the Year for both Waipa and the Waikato in 2014. 2015: As the club entered its 68th season, it did so as an all–year operation, providing winter football for 600+ players, spring/early summer 5-a-side football for social players and acting as a base for national league summer football. It continued to make history — on February 6, 2015, it staged the first game of beach football by women played to FIFA rules and pitch standards in New Zealand, at the Karapiro Sandcourts. In March 2015, construction began of the club’s $200,000 extension to its changing rooms, providing six more sets of showers/ changing rooms for local and visiting players. On 25 May 2015, the club staged its first ever international match when Fiji and Hungary came to Cambridge for an U–20 international as preparation for the FIFA U–20 World Cup tournament. In July 2015, our club was awarded the Quality Club Mark by New Zealand Football, becoming only the fourth club in our region to achieve the 1 Star status, and becoming
