Wot, no Yellow Fevah???

No.  I've had two years of organising it only for half the team to pull out in the two days before hand.  Plus I have to cover National Yoof League at Petone.

Please disregard start times above.

Latest news below -

Kia ora

Thanks for being part of Culture Kicks this Sunday.  I have attached the rules, site map of Martin Luckie Park and the preliminary draw - subject to change (Women�s Grade please note Samuel Marsden have withdrawn and the draw will be amended).  If the grounds remain open the tournament will be going ahead.  From 7.30am on Sunday you can ring Wellington City Council on 04 499 4444 to make sure the tournament is on.  Important information of the day follows:

 

Culture Kicks Football Festival

Five-a-side football

Martin Luckie Park, Berhampore

Sunday 28 March

Times 8am � 4.15pm

8-8.40am           teams register at information tent

8.45am             teams briefing in front of information tent. Please make sure your team is at this briefing.

8.55am             National Anthem of New Zealand & opening

9am                  Kick off for first round of games

                        Tournament runs throughout the day

3.15pm             Finals fields

3.45pm             Prize-giving

Spirit of the festival

While we expect the games to be played at a high level and for their to be some very good players on show the spirit of the festival is about unity and fair play and we expect teams to self govern themselves. This means a high standard of behaviour is expected including respect for other players, respect for officials and referees and we ask your help to keep the park safe and tidy.

Teams will be representing many different ethnic groups, we encourage you to take the time to talk to the other teams and to learn about their customs and cultures.

Other entertainment and services

As well as the football we�ll have music and performances throughout the day, kid�s entertainment including face painters and push play.

There will be food stalls and a coffee cart (all CASH ONLY) and we are aiming to have a physio present.

There are changing rooms and showers on site.

 

Remember that is a long day so settle into a corner of the park, pack a picnic and enjoy the festival.

 

What you need to bring

Cash for food & payment for your team (if you have not yet paid your registration fee you need to let me know you�re paying on the day)

Your team kit

Shin pads and boots/sports shoes

Water

Food

Sun block

 

Parking

There are a number of other events on in the area on the same day which will make parking very scarce. We are also closing parking at some points along Lavaud St. adjacent to the park to allow for better traffic flow.

 

To ensure you find a park and are not towed please follow these suggestions:

 

• Please encourage your team to car share/car pool, take public transport (bus to Newtown then walk) or walk and bike
• There is plenty of carparking available at Newtown Park � it�s a good idea to car pool and drop your team at the gate then park at Newtown Park � off Russell Tce (see map attached)
• Preferential parking near the ground will be reserved for team�s who carpool
• Please arrive early to allow for time to find a park and to walk back to the park from it

 

There is a temporary drop off zone by the Lavaud street entrance to the park. If you do decide to park illegally you are risking getting towed and there is nothing that WCC or SportZone can do about it. 

 

Payment

Payments were due last Friday 19 March. If you haven�t yet made payment please get in touch with me to confirm your teams registration and let me know when you�re making payment. We can only accept direct debit payments to SportZone Westpac 030 543 0288987 00 or let me know if you are bringing cash on the day.

 

Prize-giving format

Open Grade Winners � receive trophy, medals and a new team uniform (vouchers from Sportzone)

Open Grade Runners Up � medals

Women�s Grade Winners � trophy, medals and a new team uniform (vouchers from Sportzone)

Open Grade Runners Up � medals

Plate Grade Winners - medals and a new team uniform (vouchers from Sportzone)

Plate Grade Runners Up - medals

 

National Ethnic Tournament

The Cup Final winners of Culture Kicks (open grade) will represent Wellington in the New Zealand Communities Cup later in 2010, at a yet to be determined venue.

Should the Cup winners not be able to make it the runners up will represent Wellington.

 

Captain's responsibility

We hope your team has a fun time- as you can imagine organising a tournament with over 40 teams is hard work, so we expect you to be the liaison between us and your team, to pass on relevant info and to lead by example in terms of fair play and having a good attitude towards each other and officials.

 

First Aid

Teams are responsible for their own First Aid although Wellington Free Ambulance will be in attendance.  Silverstream Physio will also be on site.

 

Cancellations

Your team is confirmed to play in Culture Kicks this Sunday. There are no refunds for any cancellations from today onwards and if unpaid you will be invoiced.  We look forward

 

Should you have any further questions please contact me.  Tony Morrison can be contacted on 0275776781 or tony@sportzone.org.nz if you have queires about the rules and draw.

 

Yours in the game,

 

Rebecca Hardie 

I enjoyed a good day out watching football, cheers to Sportzone

A little foxy told me Polonez won again!

A Fantastic day of Football, Fun, Food and Entertainment were the order of the day for the 2010 Culture Kicks Football Tournament.
The usual suspects were included in the 38 team fixture list with a variety of oldies and newies qualifying for the 1/16th Cup Round. Teams looking the goods early on were West Africa, Tartan Army, Polonez, Burma and Fox FC (Somalia).
Tartan Army were upset by United Arabs and Oromo knocked out Fox FC with an early goal in the Quarter Finals. West Africa blew it in a Semi final penalty shootout against United Arabs who then met Polonez in the final. Polonez cruised to a win making use of their subs against a tired opposition.
Cambodia won the Plate Final on penalties over Back of the Net.

Player of the Tournamenmt was Kevin the goalkeeper from Street Football Wellington.

Trophies and Medals were presented by Andy Barron (Current All White) and Deputy Mayor Ian McKinnon.

Thanks to the refs and Rebecca from WCC for setting up the day for a great occasion.
