Nursery's Family Fun Day a huge success

by Ivan Mizzi - 14th April 2014

Birkirkara FC Youth Nursery would like to thank everybody that took part in the Family Fun Day, held at the Infetti Training Centre on Saturday afternoon, as it turned to be a highly successful and memorable event.

The fine weather on Saturday afternoon encouraged a big number of families to take part in a day of fun. The day was packed with activities for all those who attended, such as football tournaments and other games that were enjoyed by all those present.

The day kicked off with a Junior Champions League for all the Nursery players up to the age of 13, which consisted of a series of 5-a-side friendly games. The emphasis was on having fun, while the players could show the skills they learned during the year. All players who took part received a medal as a memento.

This activity was followed with a Coaches/Parents 5-a-side football Tournament. Each coach of the Nursery formed a team with the parents of his players to participate in this tournament. This tournament was won by the Under-8's team, lead by coaches Charlton Dingli and Alan Yoemens. All the players of the winning team received a trophy to commemorate their triumph.

A FIFA 2014 PlayStation tournament was held for the Under 14 and 15's teams. The highly contested tournament was won by Kyle Mifsud from the Under 14 team, and Tyron Cachia from the Under 15's was the runner-up, and they also received a trophy each.

Entertainment for the children was provided by "Curtain Raisers”, with lots of different activities including face and hand painting, balloon modelling, and games. Other activities throughout the day included Bingo, and the “Guess How Many ?” game. This game was won by Mary Formosa who guessed exactly the correct number of tiny footballs in a jar to be 108, and she received a prize.

The Nursery's committee would like to thank the players and their families, for taking part in this enjoyable event, and all the coaches and helpers that worked hard to make this event an enjoyable and safe one.
