Creating a BIG ISSUE

Menai Hawks fielded a U11/12s mix team, who had the great opportunity to play in the Big Issue Charity Street Soccer event at Darling Harbour in April.

It was a beautiful sunny morning and the team was very excited to play on a floating pitch!

Our team was made up a mix group of boys and girls from 11A, 12A, 12C and 12E. Street Soccer is a fast pasted game with games lasting only 10mins with 4 players on at a time.

The Hawks team played 3 games and got to the semi finals. After a nail biting penalty shoot out which stopped spectators, the team was through to the finals. It was very fast and competitive final and we finished up as runners up!

Stefan and Iman Celebrations after, Iman’s final goal of the penalty shoot out gets the Hawks into the final

The Big Issues Organisers made a special effort to commend our Hawks team on their sportsmanship and their behaviour. Always congratulating the other teams after the games, supporting and showing respect to the other teams who were playing.

A great start to the Hawks very first game of street soccer which was sponsored by the Big Issue.

Special thanks to Effie and Samer for organising, managing and coaching the team.

They made their parents and our Club very proud.

Rookie of the Year 2011

Each Year Club Central proudly hosts the Menai District Sports awards. The awards are open to junior and Senior Players and officials to acknowledge all those who have achieved success and made an outstanding contribution to their club or sport.

Menai Hawks FC is extremely proud to acknowledge and congratulate one of Under 7A players in 2011 who won the “The Junior Male Rookie Sports Person of the Year” held in Oct 2011.

Antonio Sansone played in Menai Hawks successful 7A side in 2011. His coach, who has coached junior football in the Sutherland Shire for the last 20 years, says that Antonio is a “freak of nature” - he has not seen anyone so young with so much talent. He was his teams leading goal scorer for 2011, scoring 30 goals, but even more valuable is that he was the team’s most versatile player. Yes he can score goals, and with both feet, but more importantly he has the maturity and ability to read the game far beyond his years.

It is one thing to have the ability and the skill to play football, but Antonio has it all. He has a passion to learn, he is cooperative, he is quiet and he is an absolute pleasure to coach. He doesn’t go anywhere without his football and he has the drive to succeed. Antonio success with the Menai District Sports Awards was also raised in the NSW Parliament.

Congratulations Antonio you are a great ambassador for our game and club. We wish you every success in his 2012 season with the 8A’s.

So is there another Sports star out there in our club?

With the season starting we want to hear your stories of success, so please remember to complete your Match reports and submit them via the Match reports page and if you have a great story of a player, official and volunteer share your story with us and email info@menaihawks.org.au
