Action-packed Soccer

In an exciting, spirited, and action-packed game, the Poverty Bay representative soccer team successfully withstood a strong challenge for the Brown Shield by Bay of Plenty, when they defeated them by five goals to three on the Childers Road Reserve.

After being slightly overshadowed during the first half, P.B. made a tremendous recovery to score three goals in quick succession, putting them in an unbeatable position.
