The Spell and the Gypsy Collective Byron Bay FC Wildcats are ready to take on competition leaders Mullumbimby when the women’s summer youth league continues this Friday night.
The Byron side is coming off two good wins of 5–0 each and will face a strong challenge against a quality team.
‘But we are confident the Wildcats can bring a lot to the game,’ women’s football coordinator at Byron Bay FC John McKay said.
The summer youth league is a regional competition including Lismore, Casino and Ballina sides. It is aimed at developing young players, so each team can field only four players over the age of 24.
‘The essence of the comp is for the players to have a lot of fun. They get to play different positions and explore the field and the game away from the heat of strong competitive pressure,’ John said.
The Byron side plays Mullumbimby at the Byron Recreation Grounds this Friday from 6pm. All welcome.
Anyone interested in playing is welcome to come along and introduce themselves, John said.
