Kyneton District Soccer Club players were given centre stage at the double header at AAMI Park last Thursday.
A group of nearly 100 adults and children made their way from the Macedon Ranges to Melbourne to watch back-to-back games featuring top-of-the-ladder Melbourne City Vs Western United and Melbourne City Vs Adelaide United in the Men’s game. It was a great privilege for the national league to invite Kyneton as support for the day.
Children aged from five to 17 took to the pitch, supporting players during the on-field presentations, collecting stray balls from the field of play during the game, and, of course, everyone’s favourite – the half-time entertainment.
Kyneton kids were proudly on show in their strikingly coordinated kit, with many an envious eye from the crowd, players and stadium staff casting a complimentary comment to the children, and indeed Kyneton (a town known for its creative flair).
The day’s play ended with a bittersweet result, the women’s team going down 3:1, with the men’s team winning 1:0. But you’d never know the results by looking at the smiles on the dials from a very entertaining day and night out in the city.
