Coach Mark Brennan said, “It’s a great opportunity for these talented girls, even getting to this tournament is a credit to the player focused development pathway they have followed. Soccer is a huge game in our region and a tournament like this can open many doors for the serious athlete who is striving to play at the university level or above. XFC is proud to provide the development programs to get all players to the top of their game. Any young player wanting to play at this level must get involved with their own Tier 2 club Academy development programs at the U8 or U10 age groups before they come to XFC at U13. Without technical development at this age it’s very difficult to catch up.  XFC is proud of these girls and we look forward to providing the same opportunity in the years to come for both male and female players in the Highland Region.”

XFC, which is affiliated with St Fx University and the Tier 2 clubs in the region, runs player focused development programs that strive to give players the technical, tactical and athletic ability to compete at the elite level. XFC plays their league games in the Nova Scotia Soccer League representing the Highland Region,  against  the top regional clubs in the Province. For more information visit www.xfcsoccer.org.

Falcons are
Golden at the Gunn

The 24^th edition of the Gunn Baldursson Memorial soccer tournament was held this past weekend in the valley and the Northern Nova United U-16 Tier 2A girls brought home the gold medal. The Falcons went through the preliminary with a record of 3 wins and no losses. NNU defeated Halifax County 4-0, Halifax City 5-0 and Cole Harbour 2-1. Leading the offence through these games were Sydney Adamson 2 goals, Katie Walsh with 4, while Heather Beaton, Karleigh Avery, Isobel DeMont, Isabelle Bennett, and Lindy Quann each recorded single tallies.

The cross over game saw Northern Nova play Sackville United in a very physical contest, eventual score being 2-1 for NNU, with Adamson and DeMont doing the damage.

The final was against a strong Bedford team and highlighted the talents once again of Isobel DeMont for the Falcons who open the scoring in the first half only to be followed up shortly there after by a strike by Bedford. The second half had the NNU squad showcasing their ability to defend as the Bedford squad pressed for the go ahead marker but were held off the score sheet. Not until the final two minutes of play did Northern Nova seal the match, when Veronica Deno’s free kick from 30 yards out eluded the keeper.

Having an exceptional tournament were defenders Krishma Joshi, Jenna Fraser, Tiffany Prosser, and Veronica Deno, while midfielders Jessica Taylor, Kelsey Crawford, and Alex Henderson turned in solid performances.

Going the distance in goal throughout the weekend and establishing herself as a top keeper at the U16 level was Christina Cleroux.

After the final the team was presented with championship Gunn t-shirts and plaque. In keeping with NNU tradition the team headed off to Avery’s for the celebratory ice cream treat.

Gunn summaries   ——-   Preliminary round

Katie Walsh made it 3-0 with a nice strike from outside the 18, assists to Kelsey Crawford and Tiffany Prosser.

Game #2 NNU 5 Halifax   City Celtics 0

Isabelle Bennett recorded the third goal with assists to Katie Walsh and Isobel DeMont.

the Falcons took to the field for a late evening tilt. Katie Walsh delivered
the opening volley in this contest with assists to Karleigh Avery and Lindy
Quann. Cole Harbour would deliver a wake up call to
the NNU squad with a goal of their own, early in the second half. Back on their

excellent cross from Sydney Adamson, with assist to Krishma Joshi.  Forwards Randi Fraser and Vicki Oliver
continued their consistent play. Player of the game for the Falcons was
Veronica Deno. Winning keeper was Christina Cleroux.

Game #4   NNU 2 Sackville 1         Cross Over

With dry fields and a new day Northern
Nova started this physical contest with renewed energy. Sydney Adamson scored
the goal of the weekend with a header, up and over the outstretched keeper.
Delivering the ball on target was Jessica Taylor with assist to Isobel DeMont.
Sackville tied the contest early in the second frame with a well placed strike
from deep in the corner. Not to be out done Isobel DeMont put the game away
late in the second half with a nice chip, assists to Karleigh Avery and Isabelle
Bennett. This contest saw several yellow cards, a red card player ejection and
parent removal from the sideline all by Sackville, while our players calmly
went about the business at hand.

Captains Katie Walsh, Veronica
Deno and Christina Cleroux showed great leadership on the field during this
eventful contest.

Game #5 NNU 2 Bedford 1           Final

After a picnic at Willow Park and with anticipation building the Falcons returned to the pitch. The NNU squad
got off to a great start, having the wind at their back and scoring early when
Isobel DeMont struck from the top of the 18 and caught the keeper off her line,
assists to Isabelle Bennett. Bedford also scored to tie the contest. During the second half Bedford throw everything they had at NNU but our defenders were grace under pressure not allowing the go ahead goal. Keeper Christina Cleroux made several key saves to keep the contest even. Eventually the tide would turn when Veronica Deno struck a free kick bullet into the wind
and through the keeper’s hands with only minutes to play. Defenders then played out the clock to complete the gold medal victory.

This was a total team effort with all 20 players contributing to the victory.

Congratulations Gunn Baldursson
Champions 2011 – Well Done Ladies!

 The 2010 edition of the Northern Nova United U-14 Falcons traveled to the Valley on the weekend and brought home silver in girls’ soccer provincials. Although the weather was cool and dull, the soccer action was just the opposite.  During the preliminary round, the NNU squad compiled a record of 2 wins and a tie giving them top spot in their pool. This provided the birth in the final to challenge for the gold against Strait United who finished first in their division.

  The final had all the elements expected from the two top teams in the province with quick ball movement and solid challenges by both squads. The NNU crew opened the scoring early in the first half when Jessica Deagle struck her mark from well outside the 18 yard box with a drive just inside the post. Drawing the assists on the initial tally were Alyson Fulton and Karleigh Avery.  The Falcons struck shortly thereafter when Jennifer Cooke delivered a great through ball, then redirected by Avery to spring Fulton on the wing who finished the play with an accurate strike beyond the keeper. Not willing to be out done, the Strait United squad returned the favour and scored two quick goals, one on a penalty shot and the other on a determined individual effort to knot the contest at two.

  The second half was all Falcons as they drove to the net on every opportunity and pressed for the go ahead goal. Leading the way up front were Randi Fraser, Alyson Fulton and Lindy Quann. Shutting down any possible offense were NNU defenders Paige Clarke, Natalie Mac Queen, Lauren Hale and Madison McGuire.  Many close chances had the fans on their feet but they were thwarted by numerous timely saves by the Strait keeper. As a result the contest remained a two – two draw at the end of regulation time. Both squads then battled through two additional ten minute overtime sessions but neither team was able to break the stalemate. As with any competition, their must be an end and in this case it came down to penalty kicks. Unfortunately the Falcons, who put forth such a gallant effort, were eventually defeated in the shoot out portion of the game.

   At the conclusion of this exciting but grueling contest both exhausted teams were presented with their provincial medals. Individual awards were given out by the coaches of Northern Nova to tournament player of the game recipients, Randi Fraser for game one, Jennifer Cooke for game two, Jessica Deagle for game three and Karleigh Avery for the gold medal match. Finally and in keeping with soccer tradition our NNU Falcons traveled to Avery’s farm market to enjoy the celebratory ice cream treat.
