Santos snatched $1000 in second prize

Santos FC walked away $1000.00 richer on 28/05/007, after attending a seven - a- side soccer knock out held by Lauru people in Honiara. Santos FC was happy to attend a worthy cause - fundraising to help victims of the recent tsunami.

Santos fielded two teams. Team 1 went out in the first round, through penalty shoot out. Team 2 went all the way to the grand final losing 3- 2 to Agfa Hana 2, a rival team in HFA division 1 2006.

Eleven players in team 2 shared $220 equally and the balance was retained by club treasurer. This money will be used to pay for 2007 HFA registration fee. Treasurer was thankful to players and management for working together in this achievement. This would mean that the club has assisted itself in paying for 2007 HFA fees, unlike in the past where outside assistance would be sought for this HFA fee. One of our aims is to help ourselves and then we can ask others to help us.

Thank you once again to players and all those who help in one way or another towards this fine achievement.

From Club Treasurer - Mr. John Keniapisia.
