Belmont FC Life Member an Enemy Tonight

post

Are you free tonight? Why not come down to Marks Oval and support our Belmont FC Over 35’s take on one of our more local competitors, Warners Bay. Kickoff is  at 6:30pm.

The local battle will no doubt be fierce, it was the last time these two teams met with 7 goals scored in total.

One of Belmont FC’s Life Members, Clint Starrett, forms part of the enemy for the game with him playing for the dark side. Come along, support Belmont FC and give Clint heaps.

We had a chat to Clint this week about the match. He told us that he thinks, “it will be a bit strange, this is the first time I’ve played at Marks Oval for the opposing team”. Clint also told us that he felt Belmont FC was the toughest team that he has played against this season even though the table does not currently reflect that.

Many years ago, Clint was one of the first players awarded the Belmont Soccer Club (as it was named then) 10 Years Continuous Service award as was Luke Richardson who is also a part of the opposing Warners Bay team this evening. (Picture shown is of Clint receiving the award and Luke in the background looking at his)

Club Referee’s Required

 

Throughout the season there will be games (and in some cases full days of games) in which referees are not supplied by the association, this is where Club Referees are required to step in. By taking on a role as a Club Referee, not only would you be helping your local club out and ensuring that our teams get to play each weekend but you get paid for it as well.

If you are interested in being a Club Referee or would like more information, please contact Jade on 0411 323 159 or email her at ssfgameleaders@belmontfc.com.au

There are still some opportunities for Small Sided Referees. If you are interested in doing this, please contact Jade as listed above.
