PIRATES MENS TEAM DRAW AGAINST ASHBURTON!
The Pirates Senior Mens team who are competing in the MFL (Melbourne Futsal League) at Caroline Springs, earned their first point on Saturday night against Ashburton. Ashburton were on high after their convincing win last week against AFG, but were cursing their collapse against a gritty Pirates team who never gave up. Trailing 5-1 with 10 minutes to go in the second half, the boys clawed their way back into the game with some good passing and shooting to level the game at 6-6. Ashburton were fast fading and demoralised and it was the Pirates who should have snatched victory, only for Dusan to shoot wide in the dying seconds. It was a close call as to who our bets player was….it was a toss up between Sam our Goalkeeper or Dusan Bosnjak who started the scoring spree! Player Coach, Zoran, was elated with the draw, especially after being so far behind at the break!
The next ACADEMY term has commenced,but the Pirates are always on the look out for committed players who want to learn how to play the game. BOYS AND GIRLS OF ALL AGES! If you reach a competent level within our Academy, then you could be selected for one of our MFL Teams. Although our 2009 MFL squad has been finalised, we will be entering additional teams into the 2010 competion. For further details contact Mark at markg60@optusnet.com.au or 0413 527 501.
