Round one results suggested this match was going to be a pretty good indication of how we are placed against the higher quality teams in the B south comp. The first half was very tight and although both teams dominated for periods it’s probably fair to suggest that we had the better of the chances.
Out of the team with a broken toe, your correspondent missed the first five minutes of the game, but witnessed no less than three attempts at goal by Terrigal in the next five while waiting for a steak sandwich.
The omens were auspicious as the valiant 35Cs took to the newly revitalised field of dreams for the first time in two years. The warm up was conducted in comfortable conditions only for the sun to come out and raise the temperature by 10 degrees just as the ref strolled up.

Round 1 saw Barnstoneworth 35BN’s hosting Wyong at Duffy’s oval, which was looking positively verdant, after the off season.

A great start to life in B grade with a 4-1 away win against Ourimbah. An excellent team effort right across the park but especially pleasing was the way we gelled with out 3 new guys, Raoul, Jimmy O and Glen who all had cracking games.
Having discovered only a few weeks before the start of the season that they’d been promoted to D-grade, the Fs of 2015, most of whom were soccer virgins only a year before, had been training hard. Just as well, because Saturday dawned hot and cloudless, with the temperature hovering around 30-degrees.
It was an unseasonably hot day up in the Mountains for the first game of the season, as the newly-promoted Barnstoneworth 35Cs took to the field once more.
Barnstoneworth Over 35 C’s have won the league, now to win the grand final! Come along to Austin Butler Oval at 3pm on Saturday 29th August to cheer them on to glory!
