THE Junee Summer Soccer finally kicked off last Wednesday after a three-week delay and it was worth the wait with the grounds in tip top condition and plenty of quality football played out in both juniors and seniors.
The junior summer soccer is proving to be as popular as ever with around 60 children playing and displaying some great football skills.
Games were all of a high standard with plenty of goal scored.
There are 12 junior teams spread across the age groups and in the senior Mini Roos, Atletico accounted for PSG 4-2 with Torah Newman (2) and Blake Fitzgibbins (2) scoring for Atletico and Jasmin Ross and Isaac Chisolm scoring for PSG.
In a high scoring game, Ajax accounted for Man United 7-5 with Lachlan Phillips scoring an impressive four goals and was ably supported by Tom Collins-McAlister with a hat-trick.
Xavier Wall for Man United also chipped in with a hat-trick and James Riley a brace.
In the Junior mini-roos, Real Junee scored five goals to Juventus’ three goals.
Real’s goals scored by Lachlan Fitzgibbins (2), Zac Green (2) and John Dargin (1) while Bodhi Thelan scored a neat hat-trick for Juve.
In the other game, Roar (8) accounted for Socceroos (6) in another high scoring game.
Lots of skills on display in this game as well and the goals for Roar came from Cameron Riley with a fine hat-trick, Fabian Wall (2), Emmerson Gill (2) and Angus Baldry (1).
Goals for the Socceroos came from Kaden Shaw with yet another hat-trick, Bon Fitzgerald, Jack Walker and Emmerson Gill (1) although technically, Emmerson also scored a hat-trick on the day.
The Rooballers provided plenty of skills and goals and also some new moves into the mix.
Goals were scored by Lucia Wall (3), another hat-trick, Nathan Schultz (4), yet another hat-trick, Cody Sainsbury and Trey Riley.
