Futsal red hot today at the Nationals

9-Jan-08

by J Simnett

The day started with again 4 venues being used. AIS, Mpower Dome, ACT Netball Centre and Southern Cross Indoor Sports Stadium - Tuggnerong.
At Tuggnerong the Futsal was that red hot the buildings fire alarm was set off and the entire building was required to be evacuated until the fire brigade gave the all clear. The fire cheif said it must of been the high standard and red hot pace of the games that triggered the alarm as he could not find the actual reason why the alarm was set off.
At the other venues today the Solomon Island teams faired very well today playing 7 games across 3 age groups wining 5 with 1 draw and 1 loss. This goes to show the hard work being put in by the players and officails. Well Done guys....
The Kimberlies team from Western Australia backed by FFA Member Football West also played very well today with some improved effort well done girls. Your Community will be very proud of your efforts when you return home with the experiance of Nationals and the Nations Capital - Canberra.
