NCFC Win Doncaster Rovers Pre-season Tournament

Despite going into the tournament as the lowest ranked team, Nunawading City remained undefeated throughout the 4 week tournament and claimed victory. Along the journey Nunawading defeated Whittlesea Zebras (twice) and drew with both Moreland City and our hosts Doncaster Rovers.
In the final the mighty Nunawading City team took the lead courtesy of a cracking strike from Kieron Kennedy and were only denied by a speculative shot that took a deflection to sneak past Richard Marnell in goal. In the end it came down to penalties with Richard saving Whittlesea's 7th spot kick and 18 year old Ben Mensink slotting away the winner.
Our thanks go to Doncaster Rovers for hosting a wonderful tournament and our opponents during the 4 weeks who played with good spirit.
The Nunawading City Reserves also tasted victory on the final day with a 1-0 win over Moreland City, the Nuna kids were only defeated in week one and got better each week.
