North Beach Soccer Club
First team Vs Cannington
North Beach 2 Cannington 1
Scorer Derek 1, Chris Lavin 1
This was a very tough match for North Beach. A win here would guarantee that we were safe from the relegation zone. Having won 5 of their last 7 games North Beach went into the game confident that they could carry on their revival.
After a lot of very tough football North beach went ahead 1 nil thanks to a goal from ex reserves players Chris Lavin. The goal came as a result of some good passing and a great cross that Chris just had to push into the net.
Into the second half North beach went ahead as a result of a lovely goal from Coach Derek. this was a nice chip over the keeper from the side of the goal box. The crowd were happy and decided that this made up for the four skied shots in the first half.
North Beach continued to play good football but Cannington pulled one back with approx 20 minutes to go. For the last 20 minutes cannington continually attacked North beach. The boys from the north of the river were however up to the task and managed to hold them at bay for a well deserved 2 - 1 win.
Reserves Vs Cannington
North Beach 6 Cannington 3
Scorer Russell Sinclair 3, Heath Sinclair 1, Marcus North 1
The reserves welcomed Russell back for his first game in four weeks. Also rejoining the team was Nick Christos who was back after his stint of filling in for the first team. We also had Darren playing in goal again.
The game started at a fast pace and Cannington went ahead 20 minutes into the half as a result of a mix up at the back. North beach had a few chances with one hitting the post but we were not able to put in the rebound.
With time up on the clock Russell scored his first goal to mean that we went to the brake on equal footing.
In the second half North beach went ahead with a goal from Heath only to be pulled back to even by another Cannington goal. 5 minutes later North beach went to a three 2 lead due to another goal from holiday boy Russell, Cannington replied 60 seconds latter and we were once again even on 3 all. 1 minute later the deadlock was broken by the goal of the match from Marcus who drilled the ball into the top right hand corner from 30 meters out. this seemed to break the Cannington players spirit.
North Beach finished off with further goals to Heath and Russell to finish with a well deserves win and put them 9 point clear at the top of the ladder
North beach had played far better football but were let down at time by some careless errors, Some of which lead to goals

needless to say the boys were not happy loosing to the bottom of the table team.
Only highlight was another two great goals from frank and one to Johnny Lemming.
