Uhlsport Cup and Somerset Spartans Football

2019 will be the 21st year of the Uhlsport Cup, a competition run by the Independent Schools Soccer Association (ISSA), supported by Football Queensland, and proudly sponsored by Uhlsport. The competition is for players 19 years and under, and will be played in accordance with FIFA rules.

Uhlsport Cup - Girls

This is the first year that Somerset First XI Girls participating in the cup. Our first game versus All Saints Anglican College was played 2 May. With missing key players Georgia and Serenity, the girls worked hard and played to the best of their ability. All Saints had the luck on their side and scored twice. Somerset scored once. Final score 2 to 1 to All Saints.

The second cup game played at Somerset's Track & Field on 16 May. Emmanuel College travelled from Carrara to Mudgeeraba. Emmanuel had the better start and came on 1 nil. Somerset didn’t give up and that resulted almost in a last-minute equalizer, but the Emmanuel goalkeeper had a great safe.

We will see First XI Girls back next year in the Uhlsport Cup.

Thanks to all parents for supporting the girls during their games.
