🎉 MiniKickers Prizegiving – Season Celebration! ⚽

At the end of August, our MiniKickers wrapped up their season with a fantastic prizegiving celebration. It was incredible to see just how proud our future stars were of their achievements – and rightly so!

Throughout the season, our MiniKickers showed true dedication to learning and playing the beautiful game. But most importantly, they had fun doing it! Every player has taken their skills to the next level, and we couldn’t be prouder. Thank you to all our players and their families for making Katikati Football their home.

💪 A season this successful doesn’t happen by chance – it's thanks to the hard work and passion of our amazing coaching team. This year, our coaches went the extra mile to upskill and pass that knowledge on to our young players. Your efforts truly made a difference.

Congratulations to our Katikati FC First XI Girls, who have finished 4th in Division 1! 👏👏

The girls have had a fantastic season. With a relatively young squad this year, the growth, maturity and determination they have shown throughout the season has been brilliant to watch.

Finishing 4th in Division 1 is a fantastic achievement and a great reflection of the hard work this group has put in. There is plenty of exciting football ahead for this squad! Especially as they head off to Winter Tournament next week. 💪⚽️

Special thanks to every player, coach Adam, manager Lucy and all the wonderful supporters at every game!

A big congratulations also goes to our Second XI Boys on what has been a very much development-focused season.

2026 is the first year in a very long time that Katikati Football Club has entered a Second XI Boys team into the league, and this was a very young squad with players of very differing abilities.

While the results may not have always gone their way, with just two wins this season, the purpose of this team was always much bigger than the results. It was about giving our younger players the opportunity to play in a higher league, experience more competitive football and develop their skills ahead of many of them moving into our U19 Boys team next season.

There has been plenty of learning, growth and development along the way, and that will be invaluable for these players in the years ahead. 👏

Thank you to the players, coach Johnny assisted by Avi and captains Blake and Xavier, manager Vicky, and the supporters.

Congratulations also to Ethan, Blake, Xavier, Rainal, Daniel and Shiv who will join the U19 boys at Winter Tournament next week.

To both teams, well done on your seasons! We are incredibly proud of the effort, commitment and progress shown by all of our players.

A huge congratulations to our Katikati FC Second XI Girls on an absolutely incredible season! 💛🖤

The girls finished 2nd in their Division with an outstanding record of 7 wins, 2 draws and just 1 loss, finishing the season on 23 points, only 2 points behind the league winners.

What a season it has been! The girls have continued to develop, support each other and represent Katikati Football Club with so much pride.

A massive congratulations to every player, coach Julian, manager Rachel, and every parent and supporter who has been part of this journey. 💛

You should all be incredibly proud of what you have achieved. 2nd in the league is an amazing result, and what a platform to build from!🥈⚽️

Congratulations also to Brooklyn, Chloe, Isabel and Addison who have been selected to join the First XI Girls at Winter Tournament next week. We hope you all have a fabulous week.

Well done, girls! 👏👏
