Great win for Men's 1st team

Despite an unexpected break in the game while the lighting issues were sorted out, the men's first team managed to secure a 3-0 win over Tawa at Wakefield Park last Saturday. Well done boys!

Capital Football website changes

2012 will see a much improved service delivery through Capital Football's website with what's important to all of us:

Who we're playing, where, and at what time. And of course what the result was and how we're doing in the competition.

Click on the drop down box to find your division.

Junior Football will also follow this same system.

Note: always check Capital Football website for cancellations, whatever the weather, as games can be moved.
