Here we go Again

The Stade de Manakau was buzzing with players and supporters for the final pre season frendlies. Paekakariki were the visitors and as usual the games were palyed in a very positive manner. Manakau Hotel, who will be playing in Division 3 next year, opened the afternoons entertainment with a deserved victory over a spirited Harlequins team. Harlequins borrowed a few players with double goal scorer Ben McHugo being one. Huimai also won their encounter. Huimai will be playing in Division 2 and with a mixture of youth and experience expect the season to be as successful as their inaugural season last year. A summer of active recruitment has seen new players, retired players and players returning from breaks registering with the club. A local club for local players and families. Next week sees the opening competition games with a double header at the Manakau Domain. The first game kicks off at 12.30 with the second at 3.00pm Afterwards as normal the games will be dissected over a cold pint or two at the Manakau Hotel
