Goonellabah FC and Lismore Workers FC ready for State Cup showdown
July 8, 2012
Goonellabah FC and Lismore Workers FC have claimed a place in the Northern NSW Football (NNSWF) State Cup Finals Series in Coffs Harbour where the quarter-finals and semi-finals will be decided on the weekend of July 14th-15th at BCU International Stadium.
In what will be a huge week of football in Coffs, with the Westfield Girls National Youth Championships to be conducted at BCU International Stadium from Monday 9th to Friday 13th, the NNSWF State Cup will then showcase the best club sides from across Northern NSW in the exciting culmination of the Cup, now in its third year.
The eight teams participating are made up of two clubs from the NBN State League, Northern NSW Football’s premier Newcastle-based competition, two Southern Pool teams and four Northern Pool teams.
Teams still in contention to claim the trophy include NBN State League sides Broadmeadow Magic FC and Charlestown City Blues FC; the Hunter’s New Lambton Eagles SC and Barnsley Senior FC; as well as Coffs City United FC, Goonellabah FC, Lismore Workers FC and Oxley Vale Attunga FC from NNSWF’s Northern Member Zones.
Goonellabah face Broadmeadow Magic FC in the quarter-finals on Field 2 at 2:00pm, with Lismore Workers set to take on Charlestown City Blues FC at 3:30pm also on Field 2.
This is Lismore Workers’ second consecutive appearance in the NNSWF State Cup quarter-finals, after last year being denied a semi-final berth by NBN State League side, West Wallsend SC.
In the instance that both competing teams are from different zones, the NNSWF State Cup Final will take place at 2:30pm on Sunday 15th July following the semi-final fixtures at 10am.
