Happy Father’s Day to the MCAFC dads.

The ones who started out as parents and our biggest supporters and ended up as coaches. To the ones who braved all the weather that winter could throw at us to be there to cheer us on. To
The ones who picked up the injured and encouraged when there was uncertainty. To the grandads, aunties, uncles and cuzzies who stepped up into the role of dad when needed.

Thank you for all that you do!

Even though the rain put a damper on our weekend we still wanted to take the time out of our rainy weekend to shout out one of our favourite community coaches.

This week’s shout-out goes to our very own Cluster Chaos Queen - Coach Jen! 👑⚽
Jen is an absolute institution at our 4-8 year old cluster sessions.

Every week, you’ll find her running the warm-ups with up to a hundred small humans, before stepping up to coach our youngest ballers, the 4-5 year olds.

Not only does Jen handle the wild energy of 20 four and five year olds… she matches it! 🔥

Thank you for making football so much fun for our future stars. We love you, Chaos Queen! ❤️🙌

A massive battle out there today against Eastern Suburbs and it ends all square at 1-1.

It was a tough, physical 90 minutes. Every 50/50 was contested, and both teams left everything on the pitch. We had some great chances to sn**ch a late winner, and the boys never stopped fighting, showing that true Manukau spirit.

While we always aim for the three points, especially at home, this was a valuable point earned in a real contest.

Thank you to the Manukau whānau who came out to support us; your support makes a huge difference.

We go again next week!!

🌧️ WEATHER CAN’T STOP THE MANUKAU MAGIC! 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍

A massive shout-out to our incredible 4-8 age group superstars from Otahuhu United, MCAFC and Auckland South who absolutely rocked it at the cluster today! Even though the rain came down, our littlest legends turned up with big smiles, ready to play the game they love. That is true football spirit! ⚽ As numbers dwindled we were all one big team no matter which strip we were and at the end football was the true winner!

To our amazing whānau, you are the real MVPs! Thank you for braving the wet weather, standing on the sidelines, and cheering your hearts out. Your support means everything to these kids!

A huge thank you to our friends at Otāhuhu United AFC for hosting an awesome cluster. When the heavens really opened up and poured, opening your clubrooms to keep everyone warm and dry was a class act. We truly appreciate the hospitality!

Coach Jen, as always, you were an absolute legend out there today! for the win!!!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, dry off, and we will see you all next week!
