Both National League competitions are fully underway this weekend, with five men’s games and four women’s fixtures to choose from.
It’s round one of the Men’s National League — a good chance to quickly fathom which clubs will be the contenders for the December 4 grand final — while the Women’s National League goes into round three.
Meanwhile, Northern Region Football stage their finals weekend at Papakura’s McLennan Park over the weekend, to bring down the curtain on the 2022 senior winter season.
… and don’t forget
At 7pm on Saturday evening, eight numbers will be drawn to decide who’ll get trips-for-two to the World Cup finals in Qatar, courtesy of the NZ Football Foundation’s national lottery.
You can still buy a ticket on Friday.
