GREEN CORNER SPRINGS’ SUSTAINABILITY UPDATE

OPEN TO

THE PUBLIC

OUR AWESOME NEW CLUB COMPOSTING AND RECYCLING SYSTEMS ARE PROVING TO BE A BIG HIT! We’ve managed to divert 4,320 litres of recyclable waste (mainly plastic bottles and glass) and 5,040 litres of organic waste away from landfill in just our first season. That’s the equivalent of the two elephants, Burma and Anjalee, over the road at the Zoo. Amazing work everyone! The new sustainability system is helping to reduce our environmental footprint as well as keeping the club looking clean and tidy - no more overflowing rubbish bins on busy weekends at Springs. The recyclable waste we collect gets another life and is turned into other products, while all the organic waste is commercially composted and used to help grow new plants and trees. Please keep reminding your players and supporters to sort their waste into the right bins. They’re easy to find all around the artificial turf, outside the changing rooms, on the balcony and inside the clubrooms. Remember, all food and beverage packaging sold at the club café is 100% compostable, including the coffee cups and lids. Because they are made of organic materials, the coffee cups cannot be recycled. So please make sure you “hit the target” and get them in the right bins (the green ones) after your morning fix. The next villain on our zero waste ‘hit list’ is the plastic tape used by many footballers. More about that in the next issue… In the meantime, thanks for your support. We want to be not only the best club in New Zealand, but the greenest too! If you have any questions or feedback, please contact Jane Welsh at JaneMareeWelsh@gmail.com

The planning for the tour takes a lot of time and you have to be clever at packing to ensure you do not take too much stuff away as extra baggage is expensive. I travel with a portable physio table and a number of kit bags and a Game Ready Machine for recovery. (Game ready is a compression and cooling machine). The players are encourages to nap and get good nights sleep as that is one of the best

ways to recover, alongside good nutrition and hydration strategies. We use the pool (and beach) after sessions to help reduce muscle soreness and aid recovery. Some players get massages to help reduce muscle soreness too. Stay on your feet

16th Grade Wolves are a team made up of good mates. It is their first season playing together at Western Springs and after grading they were put in the 16th Grade Div 1 competition. Div 1 has proved to be a close and competitive competition and the boys have held their own playing some lovely football in the process. They are a team in the true sense of the word with everyone playing their part in the games and improving all the time. Wolves are fortunate to have Matt Henzell as their coach who is passionate about the game and strives to get the best out of his players.

Congrats to the 11th Grade Prem Spitfires who came fourth in last weekend’s Fencibles tournament at Greenmount Reserve.

FROM THE SENIOR COMMITTEE Hi All, With the season well underway we can celebrate our teams continuing to perform well across the many leagues and divisions WSAFC are involved in. Our Premier teams are also performing well with the Men’s NRFL Premier Team sitting in fifth place (at the time of writing) and only one point of second place in what is an extremely close league. The end of season push has them well positioned for a top three finish. Good luck lads!! The Men’s Team also had a disappointing extra time loss to Birkenhead United (league leaders) in the Chatham Cup quarter finals after leading with a couple of minutes before full time. Great effort all the same. Our Women’s premier team after a disruptive start to the season is also going from strength to strength with recent wins over Papakura, Forrest Hill and a very unlucky draw (under review) with Three Kings in the 90th minute. We look forward to further successes for the remainder of the season. Beyond our Premier teams we can celebrate individual successes with club members achieving national honours. Currently at the Women’s Under 20’s World Cup in France we have the following representatives: Sarah Morton Rose Morton Liz Anton Nadia Olla

At the Oceania Under 19’s World Cup Men’s qualifying tournament in Tahiti we have Matt Conroy and Dane Schnell, plus Justin Lopes as Physiotherapist. Another club member Oscar Ramsay playing for Reading United AFC contested the final of the 2018 PDL Championship. Playing against Calgary Foothills FC they narrowly lost the extra time final 4 v 2 but a great experience I’m sure. What else’s been happening? The club has also been busy working with council to facilitate the drilling of drainage holes across the #1 pitch in an endeavour to find a solution to the flooding. Fingers crossed it’s the solution!. Beyond this the club has invested in new box goals for the #1 pitch and continued to work on improvements to the changing facilities. Without wishing to finish on a gripe could we please remind all club members and supporters of the need to have appropriate footwear when entering the artificial pitches and not to sit on the ‘toblerones’… They cost a bomb to repair!
