Clipboards, Midgets and Streakers...<br />

It was clipboard country writ large - at Sunnyvale, where the<br />

Worlds Footie Assessors assembled to assess each other,<br />

and focussed on tall thin red head Dan who controlled the<br />

RW v GI womens match at Sunnyvale.<br />

No pressure of course, just a concerto of scribbling<br />

pens every time Dan blue his whistle, no pressure of<br />

course.New Zealand <strong>Football</strong> Referee Development<br />

Manager Ken Wallace was in attendance - and of course<br />

Rab<br />

he had the biggest clip board of all.<br />

But setting standards for NZ Refs, Peter O’Leary will add Olympic Games<br />

to his formidable refereeing resume. The Whangarei school teacher has officiated<br />

at eight FIFA events including four FIFA Club World Cups, two FIFA U-20 World<br />

Cups, an U-17 World Cup and the 2010 FIFA World Cup in <strong>South</strong> Africa where he<br />

was a fourth official. Well done Peter.<br />

Club treasurers everywhere will also applaud Auckland having booked a<br />

FIFA Club World Cup spot. New Zealand side Auckland City will fly the Oceania<br />

flag at the FIFA Club World Cup once more after beating Tahitian opponents Tefana<br />

3-1 on aggregate in the final of the <strong>2012</strong> O-League.<br />

Go Auckland ! The better they do - the more we get...<br />

Its been a great run of Autumn weather, Wilson James, the famous Fsouth Met<br />

Man advises me its the best run of weather since he played pre-war school<br />

football. And the Midget matches at the Oval on Sat. morning were terrific.<br />

Blue sky and happy wee faces.<br />

Interesting that ‘Throw Ins’ have been<br />

http://www.footballsouth.co.nz/<br />

dumped and re-starts are now kicked in.<br />

Sensible fine tuning that - and the quality of<br />

some of those tiny kids augurs well for<br />

fitba’s future in this area.<br />

Of course the big kids ( students )<br />

are incorrigible - witness the naked runners<br />

round the Gardens on Saturday, tsk, tsk,<br />

BVG even spotted where the Streakers<br />

carry their wallets, credit cards<br />

and phones...<br />
