Sea Birds FC

good day all
Doctor ordered that we stay away from our phone's for the festive season football is very stressful🤣☺😁 ,but its never too late to say happy christmas and fruitful new year for all of you

We back now with more hunger
boyz lets go to training today as we kick start 2024

future is bright for Sea Birds ,another member completed the Caf D coaching licence, which takes us to two members of our team in position of this licence

Congratulations to Zintle "THE CHOSEN ONE"Hani who just came back from cape town on sunday

Hani had his first session yesterday with the first team and wow Birds have talent ,video's of the session will follow

it was a beautiful and sunny weekend for the team as we collected 6 points away from home .
Results
Nmu 0-4 Sea Birds
Eastern City 1-3 Sea Birds

we still have alot to work on in terms of our finishing ,in both games the score should have been higher then it is ,for example in the NMU game in the first 10 mins we could have been easily up by 4 goals to zero

however we happy with the points

lets fight more Birds

Past weekend results
Simunye 0-1 Sea Birds
Black Cats 0-1Sea Birds match called off in the second half with only 7 minutes to the final whistle due to Black Cats supporter slapping the referee in the face ,the Referee decided to call off the match ,reasons gaven to our captain that Referee's Safety was at risk.Overall great performance from the players ,however we still have areas we need to work on ,such as finishing our chances

we still working on our finishing in front of goal ,chances that we not taking is an area for concern hence the boyz are working around the clock at training

hopefully this will improve

Fans will notice that we have two matches now that are sent to the League committee to take a decision and one is almost three weeks old and no decision has been taken, as a result we find ourselves sitting at 11 on the Log

this situation is rather frustrating for the team ,because we do not know what will happen but we have to soldier on and not let this situation bring us down

after 3 round of games we lying at 8 on the log standings last weekend results are as follows
Voota FC 3-1Sea Birds FC
FC United 1-1Sea Birds FC
In both of the games we had the most opportunities but unfortunately not finishing our chances resulted in us not being able to add to the scoresheet and if you cant bury your chances we all know what will happen and guess what Voota buried their chances and that meant we lost the game.

our Players need to take responsibility when infront of goal and not pass the responsibility to someone else

this week we have worked a lot on our finishing ,maybe this weekend we will see more goals

we have also talked a lot on our discipline off the field ,which was the main course of our downfall this past weekend
we have young talented group of young players and if we can Ace the discipline part we can become a threat to many teams this season

our first weekend back on the soccer field was not that bad ,Second game we played Red eagles we won the game 2-1,boyz played well it could have been 5-0 had we converted our chances.
Our first game was against Bitou young Pirates .We got to Plett just before 9 saturday morning ,however when 10 o clock came only Sea Birds was ready to play while bitou Young Pirates was still in the changing room singing and had only one match offical at the field and the other 2 arrived at 10:30,The game was suppose to start at 10 O Clock and by 10:30 it was still only Sea Birds FC who was on the soccer field ,the game was then called off.
We still waiting on the Region to communicate what will happend next

we hoping to improve infront of goal this coming weekend ,chances are there but the only problem is converting them

woza weekend.....first game of the league

NOTICE!NOTICE!NOTICE!
Please note that our first league game of the season is postponed

As Mentioned last week the club participated in the Mayors cup this past weekend

The Team reached the Semi Final after coming from behind with only 2 minutes left on the Clock to make it 3-3 in the quarter finals against Great Brak United who were leading the game 3-1,We won the Match through penality shootout

In the Semi Final,we came up against FC Benfica ,after a thrilling encounter the Match ended 0-0,we again won in the penalty shootout to get to the Final

The Final was against Thembu Royals,in the first half the team had many chances to go ahead on score sheet but failed to do so ,going into halftime with the score still 0-0

Second half after 11 minutes of play Thembu Royal scored their first and not long there after that goal was followed by two goals

The score ended 3-0

the Team would like to Apologize to its supporters for this result and promises to work more on finishing infront of goal

We also are happy with the positives that came out of the tournament ,the team recently welcomed new players and we are Glad to have had the opportunity to look at these players

as we approach the Nedbank bank cup no time was wasted ,but lessons were learnt, starting from the Heritage Tournament to the Mayors cup there was an improvement in players performance that the technical team noticed

The Team would also like to Thank Mizzo for the Mature manner in which he approached the team telling us about his plans of Joining FC Benfica

It is never easy letting a well displined and talented Player go ,but sometimes you have to think of "whats good for the Player" rather then always doing whats best for the Team

we wish you well Mizzo and stay a displined soldier
