Both the Premier Men’s and Senior Women’s teams are eager to enhance their standings in the competition.
In the senior women’s division at 5:00 pm, Puaikura will emphasise a possession-based strategy, advancing the ball and utilising the entire width of the field.
Key player Te Upoko Tuariki will play pivotal roles in keeping their team well-organised.
Their strategy will likely focus on staying compact to prevent Avatiu’s offensive moves, while quick counterattacks could provide their forwards with the opportunities to strike.
At 4pm, in the U15 boys division Avatiu, recognised for their organised gameplay, will look to capitalise on any opportunities to maintain their position as they currently sit at the top of the table.

Avatiu, in contrast, is known for its possession-based football. Their midfield controls the tempo of the game, focusing on precise passing and ball retention to create attacking opportunities. They look to feed their striker through well-timed through balls, relying on clinical finishing to convert chances. Teretia Teinaki will play a pivotal role in maintaining their composed style of play.
Tomorrow, in the men’s division at 5pm the Premier Men’s match will feature a tactical clash between Avatiu’s high-pressing and fast-paced attack, and Puaikura’s possession-oriented approach.
Avatiu, coming off a draw against Nikao Sokattak in the last round, will look to players like James Nand to be instrumental in maintaining their defensive solid.
Puaikura comes into this match after a 1-0 loss against Titikaveka. Puaikura has displayed strength both in attack and defense throughout the season.
Defensively, Oscar Wichman and Paul Louise has been pivotal in organising their backline. Puaikura’s combination of defensive resilience and attacking width makes them a formidable side on both ends of the pitch.
