It's Division 1
- Zephyr Rovers FC
- Wellington Indoor Sports confirmed this afternoon that Zephyr Rovers had been promoted to Division 1 after their impressive pre-season performances including the narrow loss to Division 1 runners up Mercer. "It's come as a bit of a shock to be 23 years ahead of the team plan to be promoted to Division 1" said Rovers Manager Steve Hall "but that gives us a few years to consolidate before we become the best team in Wellington Indoor football".

P2 Men Vs Hutt 23/06/07 Lost 2 - 5
- Upper Hutt Hockey Club
- Yet another game where we showed that we can match it with the best teams in the grade. The game started with us with most of the ball, however Hutt got the first goal of the game. We responded with a goal from Jason Eade to even it up at 1-1 in the 2nd half. Hutt then got a couple quick goals, due to us not marking well enough. Jason eade finished off the scoring with another goal from a good team attacking move. The game also included a strong first up appearance from Paul Gardiner filling in for an absent Chad at the back.

Rough Stuff
- Zephyr Rovers FC
- Wellington Indoor Sports announced yesterday that Zephyr Rovers was one of the teams to watch when they described Rovers as one of eight teams that pop up in referee reports about teams. "I was flabbergasted" said Zephyr Rovers Manager Steve Hall "we're a pretty clean team since Charlie and Chris left and whilst we've had the odd discussion with a referee, I can't recall it ever being abusive". Hall said he was even more perplexed when hearing that "that guy with the grey beard is your worst offender".

Public Service 11 vs Upper Hutt 1
- Brooklyn Northern United AFC
- We racked up another good score, but the Public Service left Upper Hutt a little deflated as we pretty much let the Upper Hutt Slayers (UHS) off the hook. The final score will show a command performance by the BNU Public Service, winning 11 goals to one. But with a 7-1 half time lead, it should have been much, much greater.

BNU v. Lower Hutt, 0-3
- Brooklyn Northern United AFC
- Without a doubt this was a clash eagerly anticipated by all the BNU players. Come 2:30pm Saturday we would be playing on what was tipped to be the pitch of the season and the surface was the topic of conversation early in the week leading up to the game. But like many fields in the capital, it couldnâÂÂt cope with the consistent rain and Karori number 1 was underwater.

P2 Women Vs Kapiti - 17/06/07
- Upper Hutt Hockey Club
- P2 Women had a hard fought game vs Kapiti. Possession was fairly even with Kapiti eventually coming out the winners 3-1. Kat Bealing scored Upper Hutts goal with a fantastic reverse shot in the second half. Unfortunately we were unable to convert several other scoring opportunities, but did however manage to keep Kapiti scoreless in the second half. A great effort with no subs!!

Admittedly, an early kick off does have some advantages and their rewards were reaped all afternoon at the Southern Cross. Anyhow, onto the football.

R3 Woman vs YMCA 10/06/07

- We had our 1st game on the new {Porirua} turf on Sunday and came away with a 2 - 0 win against YWCA! The new turf is very bouncy, is like playing on shag pile carpet! Hopefully will settle down after some use! A great goal scored by Sonja Jeffs on the left wing, was in the right spot at the right time for a beautiful cross from the right and nicely swept in! 2nd goal was a great deflection into the goal by Chrissy Potaka Kelly after a hit to the 'spot'! Good work by the Team! Lisa

P2 Men Vs Victoria 09/06/07
- Upper Hutt Hockey Club
- The Upper Hutt P2 mens team which has the largest squad in the past eight years found itself unusually short on Saturday - with only one sub. Still, Playing against Varsity, last years P2 winners, the team fought well. Victoria scored some very good goals (and luck seemed to be on thier side!). Upper hutt lost 5-1 in a game that could have been alot closer with us narrowly missing the goal on at least two occasions. Varstity broke away and scored very quickly on occasions but the general feeling amongst the team was that we dominated posession but unfortunately did not convert it into points. The jubilant celebrations from Varsity every time they scored was a tribute to the quality opposition they were up against. Goal was scored by someone who would like to remain anonymous (modest chap!) Murray

BNU Public Service 9 - {Porirua} City 1
- Brooklyn Northern United AFC
- Woo hoo. An excellent win on the weekend. A comprehensive thrashing of a team that probably should have done better but was beaten down by a Public Service that is starting to come into its own once again. An offence that has now realised 20 goals in its last three games and a defence that has given up only five goals in the ten matches played this season, suggest that this team is only getting better.
