Germiston City Football Club’s senior teams took part in another pre-season tournament, against tough opposition Kempton Park, on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The match took place at Edenvale as the Kempton fields were unavailable, and Germiston City’s first side played an excellent game.<\/p>

Kempton Park tried bully boy tactics against the young Germiston side, with Kempton being very physical and spurred on by a robust contingent of supporters, who goaded the Germiston players at every opportunity.<\/p>\n

The Germiston side took it in their stride, and once they got over the initial onslaught and harsh tackles from the opposition, they came out as victors with a 4-2 score.<\/p>

The reserve side had things a little easier and beat Kempton with a score of 4-0.<\/p>\n

With the kick-off of the Super League in less than two weeks, players are enjoying the exposure of these competitive games.<\/p>\n

The final pre-season match will be against Olympia on Saturday, February 28.<\/p>\n

“The junior training got underway last week and we are still looking for players in all age groups as well as coaches,” said Peter Oliver, the club’s communications officer.<\/p>\n
