Barbatano makes men’s NPL debut

A significant milestone for another Boomers family member 

On top of the terrific news in recent months of three Boomerang’s men’s players (Fulton, Rathjen, van Aalst) being selected to play international futsal at the AFF Futsal Club Championship (and nearly winning the tournament), and Boomers favourite, Elie Darwich being selected for the Lebanon U20 Youth men’s team to play in the AFC U20 Championships early in 2019 (and at the same time playing in the Lebanon National League), another of the Boomerangs growing family takes a massive step to a successful sporting career.

At the tender age of 15, Zac Barbatano has made his debut in the Gungahlin men’s NPL team.

“He’s extremely creative and fast thinking, has great feet and is capable of winning matches by himself, he makes the difference”, Gungahlin NPL men’s coach Marcel Munoz is quoted as saying. Zac may have been blessed with natural sporting ability, but his years of playing high-level futsal with the Boomerangs has certainly helped him to become the player he is today.

FFA 2016 Nationals FINAL WRAP

Photo courtesy of 'photos by loopii'. 

Twelve ACT Boomerangs teams entered… One hundred and fifteen players selected… Thirty coaches and support staff…  Hundreds of parents, grand parents, brothers, sisters and other supporters… Sixty plus pool games played… Two quarter finals and seven semi finals made… One Grand Final contested.

[For photos of the week’s matches, please visit the Boomerangs photo site and the FNSW Official Facebook page.]

Yet another massive effort by the Boomerangs club, working in conjunction with the ACT football federation, Capital Football, to assemble 12 teams to participate the annual FFA Futsal Nationals in Sydney from January 4-8, 2016. In addition, Capital Football sent its representative AWD team (athletes with a disability) to compete in the eight team AWD division, which was well supported by the travelling ACT contingent.

FFA 2016 Nationals Day 4 Wrap

Day 4 of the 2016 FFA Futsal Nationals saw ACT teams compete in a final seven pool matches and in eight quarter and semi finals.

It is at about this time of a Nationals Tournament that the pressure starts to rise and the tough week starts to take its toll. The pressure of finishing in the top four – preferably as high as possible so as not to face off against the strongest team in the semi-final. There is also a growing number of vocal and demonstrative supporters (and coaching staff) at each of the matches. This can be quite daunting to the younger age groups. Continue reading “FFA 2016 Nationals Day 4 Wrap”

FFA 2016 Nationals Day 3 Wrap

Day 3 of the 2016 FFA Futsal Nationals saw ACT teams compete in a further 24 matches – mainly across two venues, Valentine Sports Park and Penrith Valley Sports Centre. Dural hosted a limited number of matches only due to rain leakages affecting a couple of courts.

It was yet another fabulous day of high quality futsal, demonstrating all the positives of the indoor game, whilst bringing together the competing States and Territories (and guest internationals), in the spirit of competition. The participating players, from as young as nine years of age, through to 19 year olds, have all competed in a positive spirit and represented with pride – they will all go home with great memories of this week.

The ACT Boomerangs results in summary: Continue reading “FFA 2016 Nationals Day 3 Wrap”

FFA 2016 Nationals Day 1 Wrap

Day 1 of the 2016 FFA Futsal Nationals saw the ACT teams compete in 19 matches across ten age groups (incl AWD) and saw probably fewer victories than had been anticipated and a few shock losses for strong ACT teams expected to do well this Championship. In summary:

The 12 Girls had a win and a loss from their two matches, with Emma Ilijoski shining in front of goals in game one.

12 Boys White (development squad) were on the wrong end of a couple of big scorelines, but showed a lot of promise and heart, and potential (including a second Ilijoski registering multiple goals on the score sheet).

12 Boys Blue lost a very tight encounter against front runners, NSW Thunder, but in the process demonstrated far more positives than negatives. Continue reading “FFA 2016 Nationals Day 1 Wrap”

FNSW PL2 15/16 Round 10 Review

Round 10 of the 15/16 NSW Premier League 2 season saw the club take on the Botany Bay Pirates for the return clash at mPowerdome. In Round 3 the club recorded its first ever shutout against another club in the FNSW State/Premier futsal leagues. That day against Botany Bay Pirates, on their home courts in Hurstville, provided impetus for the club to continue its strong progress across the 15/16 season.

For Botany Bay to visit Canberra’s mPowerdome would then have been a daunting prospect after going winless at home. And on top of that was the timing of the round, just one week before Christmas, and in the heat of an early Canberra summer.

As it was, the trip to the nation’s capital did indeed prove difficult for the Sydney club – as they struggled to bring down maximum size squads to give them deep benches – something that was definitely going to be needed on a day that was forecast to hit 38 degrees.

The results of the nine competitive matches were again brilliant for the Boomers, producing a second ‘shutout’ for the season, with nine victories recorded from the nine competitive matches. The record books would need to be dug deeply into to find another club in the NSW elite futsal leagues that have completed two shut outs in a season.

GIRLS JPL13/15 GRAND FINAL – BOOMERANGS TOO CLASSY FOR BLUE DEVILS

GIRLS U13/15
GRAND FINAL

Boomerangs FS U15 9 (Madeleine Perceval 6’, 26’, Cecilija Matic 11’, 28’, Ashlyn Garrity 27’, Emma Ilijoski 28’, 34’, Stella De Marco 37’, Isabella Tammaro 39’) Belconnen United 0

Boomerangs FS were crowned Girls U13/15 Futsal Premier League Champions with a comfortable 9-0 win over Belconnen United in the Grand Final. Belconnen set their stall out early conceding possession to the Boomerangs side and seemingly content to defend in numbers and try to frustrate their opponents. And, to a degree, it worked until the sixth minute when some patient Boomerangs build-up was rewarded with a simple finish from Madeleine Perceval. The danger in allowing a side as talented as the Boomerangs the monopoly of the ball is that they will finally create an opening and they did again on eleven minutes as Stella De Marco skipped past a challenge and pulled the ball back for Cecilija Matic to sweep into the roof of the net. The Blue Devils were restricted to just one effort in the opening half as Leila Craemer-Banks broke away but shot wide when well placed. Otherwise it was Boomerangs very much in ascendancy at the interval.

It was a gallant defensive effort by the Blue Devils, who had suffered a heavy defeat to this opposition in the round-robin series, and they continued to provide a roadblock to the Boomerangs ambitions of adding to the scoreboard until Perceval rapped in her second from an acute angle. That opened the floodgates and three goals arrived in quick succession as Captain Ashlyn Garrity, Matic and Emma Ilijoski all netted in the space of a minute. Boomerangs withdrew their ‘keeper to create an extra player and pile on the pressure and Ilijoski scored her second of the match with five minutes to play. Stella De Marco added the eighth goal with time running out and Isabella Tammaro rounded out the tally in the final minute. In the end it was Boomerangs extra class that told despite Belconnen’s best efforts.

Boomerangs FS U15: 41. Sally JAMES, 27. Isabella TAMMARO, 28. Sonia PASQUARIELLO, 29. Charlotte GRANDY, 31. Ashlyn GARRITY, 34. Madeleine PERCEVAL, 37. Cecilija MATIC, 43. Stella DE MARCO, 44. Emma ILIJOSKI

JPL13 GRAND FINAL – RUTHLESS BOOMERANGS CLAIM CROWN

BOYS U13
GRAND FINAL

Boomerangs FS U13 6 (Luca Gagliardi 2’, 38’, Brandon Davids 7’, 34’, Zachary Barbatano 29’, Oliver McCarthy 40’) Monaro Panthers 1 (Timothy Noack 40’)

Boomerangs FS claimed the Boy’s under-13 Junior Futsal Premier League title with a convincing performance as they outplayed a game Monaro Panthers to win the title showdown 6-1. Heading into the match as clear favourites it didn’t take the Boomerangs long to assert their authority as, from a free-kick awarded for the Panthers ‘keeper delaying the play, Luca Gagliardi crashed home. Boomerangs were stringing together some intricate passing combinations and another splendid move barely five minutes later yielded the second as Brandon Davids slid the ball into the empty net at the far post and that cushion allowed Boomerangs to dictate the pace. They dominated possession for the majority of the opening half with the Panthers restricted to sporadic breakaways, the end of one of which Daniel Skazlic drew a decent save from Boomerangs custodian Callum Foster. But Boomerangs were well worthy of their half-time advantage.

The Panthers needed to strike next if they were to force their way back into the match and they certainly tightened up defensively but, unfortunately, were struggling to find a way past the solid Boomerangs defence. And it was the Boomerangs who were to increase their lead with eleven minutes remaining. Again it was the movement and precision of passing that undid the Panthers with Zachary Barbatano, a constant threat, rewarded with a fine goal. That seemed to knock a bit of the stuffing out of the Panthers and Davids was able to nab a second, sweeping the ball high into the roof of the net from close range, to effectively seal the result in the 34th minute. Gagliardi completed his brace two minutes from time and there was time for the half dozen as Oliver McCarthy crunched in the sixth. The Panthers gained a modicum of reward when Timothy Noack scored with seconds to spare but it was Boomerangs match.

STATISTICS 
Boomerangs FS U13: 49. Callum FOSTER, 38. Zachary BARBATANO, 39. Luca GAGLIARDI, 40. Armani TAFFA, 43. Robert TKATCHENKO, 44. Murphy SHAW, 46. Oliver MCCARTHY, 50. Brandon DAVIDS, 77. Stefan VUCIC

MEN’S FPL – STATUS QUO MAINTAINED AT HEAD OF LADDER

MEN’S FUTSAL PREMIER LEAGUE
ROUND 12

It’s as you were at the top of the Men’s Futsal Premier League as the top two sides, Canberra Olympic Superprawns and Boomerangs FS both won to remain in the pole positions at the top of the ladder. Goals from Robbie Cattanach, who’s double took him level at the top of the Golden Boot standings, and Ryan Keir, who also nabbed a brace, gave the Superprawns a 6-4 success over Boomerangs FS Youth.

Goran Josifovski and Pat Ross-Magee both added to the Superprawns tally but the youthful Boomerangs made the favourites work hard and pushed them all the way with goals from Michael Rinaudo (2), Chris Smith and Nicholas Rathjen keeping them in touch. Ultimately the leaders claimed the points and are another step closer to the number one placing come finals time.

In the other match played last week goals from Callum Smith and Jake Wilsener gave Boomerangs FS a 2-0 win over Untouchables FC to keep the Boomerangs above their opponents in the latest rankings. Smith and Wilsener now both have five goals for the season and their team look set to finish second on the table.

WOMEN’S FPL – UNTOUCHABLES FC WHITE REMAIN IN FINALS HUNT

WOMEN’S FUTSAL PREMIER LEAGUE
ROUND 12

There’s still spots up for grabs in the make-sup of the semi-finals for the Women’s Futsal Premier League as the competition edges towards its conclusion as we enter Round 13 this weekend. Six teams are still in contention for the four places with only the top two, and barring a mathematical collapse, the third place term sure of a spot.

Leaders Gungahlin United have all but wrapped up top spot following a 6-0 hammering of Boomerangs FS Youth in the latest action. Golden Boot leader Brittany Palombi smashed a hat-trick to move onto thirty-one goals for the season with regular scorers Grace Field and Ashleigh Palombi also netting. Michelle Aurousseau grabbed her fifth of the campaign as the Gunners ran out easy victors.

Untouchables FC Red made sure that Gungahlin would have to wait to be crowned number one as they defeated Belconnen United 3-1 to leave them six points behind with two matches to play. Jennifer Bisset scored twice for the Untouchables FC Red team with Sophie Kochinos’ fourteenth of the season securing the result. Ariana Ilheo pulled one back for Belconnen United, but they were unable to force their way into the contest and fell to a seventh loss of the season.

Untouchables FC White are back in the hunt for fourth spot as they downed Canberra FC 3-1 denying their opponents the chance to open up what would have been an unassailable gap. Erika Pennyfield, Freyja Jacobsen and Erica Weatherly scored the all-important goals for the Untouchables with Najwa Allen, a regular contributor to the goals column, striking for Canberra FC.

Boomerangs FS cemented their semi-final place with an 8-3 win over Tuggeranong United for whom Samantha Wood (2) and Kristy Helmers scored. A hat-trick from young starlet Madeleine Perceval was equalled by a treble from Daniella Cecere as the Boomerangs satiated their hunger for goals against their lowly opponents. Jordan Buchannan also netted a brace in the victory.

Summer Futsal Season Ready To Take Off

Boomerangs FS are looking forward to one of the most exciting and busy summer futsal seasons in the club’s history.

Competitions begin in the next few weeks in the Football NSW Premier League 2 competition (for seniors and juniors), the Capital Football Senior Futsal Premier League (men and women) and for the first time, Boomerangs FS will be competing in the Capital Football Junior Futsal Premier League (13s and 15s Girls and Boys). In addition the young U10/U11 development squad will be competing at South Canberra Futsal, and the 16 Boys in the Men’s Division 2 competition.

A total of 21 teams competing across five competitions! It’s no surprise that all the back room volunteers and coaching staff have been very busy over the past couple of months.

For the past seven seasons, the Boomerangs have competed in the FNSW elite leagues (Super, Premier and State) with nine teams and have regularly fielded a number of teams in the Capital Football Men’s and Women’s senior Premier Leagues. However, providing additional opportunities to play high level futsal is what the club thinks is the right course of action, given the significant increase in demand from players, and the continuing increase in quality of players and coaches coming through the ranks.

Draws and venues will be confirmed in due course, as will competition locations.
