President’s Report
Phil Patterson
This time last year I welcomed the invitation from Mike Rogers to
step into his somewhat significant shoes, as President and Chairman
of Lower Hutt City AFC. Having come through the junior ranks of this
Club to senior football at the highest international level, coaching
junior and senior teams and representing the needs of the players
as Club Captain in my 20+ years at LHCAFC, it was a logical next
step. Twelve months on, it’s been a year that will be remembered
as one of the most successful ever for football in New Zealand; our
All Whites unbeaten at the FIFA World Cup, the Wellington Phoenix
only one game away from an A-League Grand Final, and the injection
of welcome funds from a major bank into football at every level
which will hopefully filter down to grassroots – eventually! For me
personally, the past 12 months have provided the greatest insight
yet to the scale of operation that is our favourite football club. It’s
been a fairly steep learning curve and I give my wholehearted thanks
particularly to Mike Rogers, Loek Strik and Brendan McIntyre and to
my Executive Committee for their support.
Lower Hutt City AFC – The BIG Picture
This year, we fielded 11 senior men’s teams, 2 senior women’s
teams, (we are the only Club in the Wellington region with a Central
League Men’s and Women’s team), an Under-19s squad, and almost
400 juniors. We operated an ever-expanding Soccer for Schools
Programme, Junior Academy, School Holiday Programme and
established what we hope will become, a long-term partnership
with Glasgow Rangers Football Club when we welcomed its Rangers
Soccer School to Fraser Park. Our junior players and coaches are
represented at regional and federation level, our Under 19s are
conquering (almost) all before them, finishing runners-up in Napier
for the third time in our history, we have players stepping up to
national level through Team Wellington Youth (Watson, Higgins,
Hall-Jones, Cotter, Coad, Te Anau, Basalaj and Tredrea) and the ASB
Premiership (Howe, Team Wellington and Galbraith, Waitakere);
and at international level Scott Basalaj (NZU17s), Ethan Galbraith
and James McPeake (NZU20s) and former LHCAFC junior Evie
Millyn who took part in the Women’s Under 17s World Cup. A HUGE
congratulations to all these players. A couple of our senior men’s
teams finished top of their leagues and while our two top teams
(Men’s and Women’s) had disappointing seasons when measured
against our objectives for the year, the foundations have been laid
for greater success in 2011.
Off the field, we are represented on the Board of Team Wellington
(Robbie Easthope), have established ourselves as a key member of
Fraser Park Sportsville (myself and Robbie Easthope) and continue to
be ever-vigilant of the goings-on at Capital Football and New Zealand
Football with attendance at countless meetings and working-groups
which will shape the future of the game in our region. And our club
management team effectively manages over a million dollars worth
of fixed assets. All of this on a budget that is half of what it was a few
years ago, and with a personnel base made up mostly of volunteers.
That’s an achievement we can all be proud of and due in no small
part to the infrastructure developed over many, many years by long-
standing stalwarts of this club.
2011 and Beyond
Now it’s up to the next generation to build on this solid foundation so
that we can truly claim to be the best football club in the Wellington
region, ON and OFF the field. Your Executive Committee, with input
from senior managers and coaches, and the Junior Committee has
undertaken a significant review of our off-field operations and on-
field performances over the last 5 years. We are in the process of
developing a detailed Strategic Plan, identifying key measurables
and objectives, which, using 2010 as our base year, we will now track
on a year-by-year basis. The aim is continuous improvement. In an
environment of declining funds and increased expectations, we are
actually spread a little thin in terms of our financial and personnel
resources. We have to be our own harshest critic. We must challenge
how we operate on a day-to-day basis to ensure that everything we
do and every dollar we spend is justified and contributes towards
achieving our objectives. Much of what will be detailed in the
Strategic Plan has been said before. But now it’s all detailed in
one document so that we all have a clear understanding of what
we are working towards, how we’re going to get there and who is
responsible/accountable for achieving these goals – and if we’re not
achieving our objectives, we need to ask ourselves why not, and be
prepared to make changes.
Priorities for 2011
- Increase our membership base. Our junior numbers are actually
declining which is a concern. We need to make it a priority to retain
our existing members, particularly those moving into the college
system (look at joining the U21 League), as well as increasing the
number of new junior members joining our club. We also need to
ensure that we retain our existing senior base. There is a wealth of
knowledge and experience that we need to tap into as a Club – and
we don’t want other Clubs benefitting from it!
- Implement a Coaching Structure in line with New Zealand
Football’s “Whole of Football” plan, starting with the “Small
Whites” course for our newest coaches, through to relevant
qualifications for our senior coaches. The uptake of courses this
year has been disappointing and this needs to be addressed for
2011.
- Build on our individual player and Under 19s’ team success to
achieve onfield success for our competitive senior teams. The
achievement of our Under 19s this year is particularly encouraging
and I’m confident that with the right mix of youth and experience,
our Central League (Men’s) team can push on up the league in 2011.
- Fraser Park Sportsville. We will continue working collaboratively
with the Council, Sportsville founding clubs, the Sportsville Board
and Sport Wellington in the redevelopment of Fraser Park. The
majority of our games, junior and senior, are played at Fraser; we
have a fantastic training facility which would be complemented by
an all-weather, Central League quality pitch and administration/
meeting facilities. Rest assured however, we WON’T be moving for
anything less than the quality of facilities we currently have at Bell
Park.
- Reduce our reliance on grant funding and increase our income from
other sources, including sponsorship, fundraising and club social
activities.
Finally, a huge thanks to everyone this year, and in past years, who
have taken Lower Hutt Football Club to where it is today. To Mike
Rogers who continues to work tirelessly for the Club, the Executive
Committee for enduring our sometimes long meetings and additional
responsibilities in the absence of a full-time General Manager to keep
this Club operating successfully day to day; the Junior Committee for
its work in organising our numerous junior players and coaches, in
particular Mr McGrath for his 25 years of commitment, service and
politically incorrect monologues – not always for public consumption
but generally amusing. Although sorry to see John step down from
his role as Junior Chairman, this is a wonderful opportunity for our
Junior Committee to bring some fresh ideas to the table and take
our Junior Club to even greater heights. Thanks also to our senior
coaches and managers, our sponsors without whom many of the
benefits we enjoy as a club we just wouldn’t have, (with particular
acknowledgement for the team at the Station Village – great food,
cold beer and a never-ending supply of football knowledge and
advice) and to all our members and supporters who wear the green
and gold with pride.
As we head into our 90th year, it’s a challenging but exciting time
ahead for us all at Lower Hutt City AFC. There is no place at this
football Club for personal agendas, or particular focus on any one
part of the club to the detriment of the other. Our challenge is to
manage our resources so that ALL areas of the club can lay claim
to being the best in Wellington – and that’s only going to work if
everyone is working together.
Let’s get started!

greatly appreciated.
A final observation - it is interesting to note that while there has been
an increase in football’s ‘profile’ in the wider community, our player
numbers have not reflected the expected growth. Other than the
usual hopes and ambitions regularly floated by the governing body,
thwarted usually by financial reality, a more local problem relating to
the removal of the 15th and above grades from the auspices of the
local clubs, has had a serious detrimental effect on morale of some
of the older juniors playing in the Hutt Valley especially those that
will be, or are attending, secondary schools with a legible coaching
framework.
Despite the best efforts of ours and other junior clubs in the area, all
reports indicate major difficulties in keeping the affiliations of players
at that crucial 14-17 year age group. Regardless of the homilies,

Ivan England Tournament
This year presented us with an early start to the tournament and
due to us still having games to play in Central League, I saw it as an
opportunity to give some of our young players the chance to play at
this level. It proved to be an excellent exercise as a number of the
younger players played against a very strong Island Bay side. We
went down 6-0 but it showed me and the players where they needed
to be and where they were at. There was a few weeks break before
we played our next game and in between the players continued
to train in preparation for the rest of the U19s’ calendar. The next
game was against Wests and we knew that the game would give us
a gauge to how we were tracking. It ended in a 9-1 win and some
very pleasing performances, none more so than the 6 goals scored
by Ethan Galbraith. With one game left we needed some results to
go our way and hope we could get in on goal difference. Alas a 3-1
win against Tawa wasn't enough as we failed to make the semis. It
would have been good to get to the next stage but we knew that we
had a focus on doing well at Upper Hutt and Napier so our attention
turned to that.
Upper Hutt Tournament
As defending champs we had the pressure on us to do well and as
everyone kept telling us winning Upper Hutt was usually a bad omen
leading into Napier. We had a number of players unavailable but we
were able to call on the services of Tom Biss, our guest player from
Hawkes Bay. We started the weekend against Kapiti Utd and after
going a goal down early we eventually found our way and finished
comfortable 3-1 winners. A good start but with a long way to go. Next
up was the Upper Hutt Academy side which in the end gave us the
opportunity to give some of our young players a run in what was
a one-sided 11-0 victory. Our last game of the day saw us against
Miramar. It ended in a 1-1 draw but it gave us the wake-up call we
needed going into the business end of the tournament. We faced
Upper Hutt in the quarter-final and played some terrific football to
win 3-0 and a semi against Stop Out. It was an entertaining semi and
provided us with the best test we had all weekend. A 1-0 victory saw
us into the Final against Tawa. A repeat of last year’s final and the
only difference was the 2-0 winning margin. It was a very satisfying
weekend. Winning the tournament back-to-back was pleasing but to
do it without a number of players was great.
Napier Tournament
In the end we just didn't have enough in the tank and for us to have
been successful in the Final we needed all the players fit against what
was a very good Birkenhead side. It seemed like an anti-climax but
that would be an injustice to the players who had given so much over
what is a tough weekend of football. Their attitude, togetherness and
commitment to each other was superb. They represented the Club
and themselves in a first class manner. The losing score of 0-2 was
fair but if we had taken a couple of chances early on it might have
been a different story. In the end we knew it was a game too far but
as a group they had a lot to be proud of. Although the weekend didn’t
end the way we wanted, it certainly started positively. Day 1 saw us
win our first three games against very tough opposition. A 1-0 win
v Tawa got us off to a great start, followed by a very good 3-1 win v
Waitakere and the best performance of the day was a 1-0 win v last
year’s winners East Coast Bays.
Day 2 was all about getting a result to make sure we qualified for
the next stages of the competition. Fencibles was our opposition first
up but a poor first half performance saw us down 2-0. Our second
half performance was better but we eventually went down 2-1. The
final game saw us run out deserved winners against Cambridge,
the 4-0 scoreline was what the players needed going into the Q/
Final v Tauranga. Tauranga had beaten us comfortably last year so
complacency wasn't going to be a problem. After having most of
the play the breakthrough failed to come and we were 0-0 at half-
time. The players showed a great deal of patience and they stormed
home in the second half to win 3-0 and a place in the S/Final. Our
opponents in the semi were our local rivals Wests. It was always
going to be a tense affair and so it proved to be. We scored early
through a Tom Biss penalty but like all semi finals I just wanted that
next goal to kill the game off. It eventually came through our Captain,
Jarrod Smith. 2-0 and a deserved place in the Final.

Coaches’ Player: Scott Basalaj and Tom Biss
It was a fantastic performance by our players and one that
will live in the memory for quite some time. Our supporters
over the weekend were outstanding and a big thank-you to
them. There are many people who make it all work so well
and I would like to acknowledge them. Thank you Christine,
Trevor, Tracy and Warren. Scott, Andy and Andrew. Renee For-

 Women’s One
Mike Rogers
Season 2010 was a bit of a mixture. The team started well, winning
their first three games. They then had a bit of a mid-season falter,
before getting back somewhat on track towards the conclusion of the
season.
Capital Football had brought in a new concept for this season,
playing it in two distinct halves. The first half of the season consisted
of 6 games, and at the half way point the bottom team went down
one division, and the top two teams from Capital Two came up for a
further round of 7 games.
Our first half season results saw us winning 3, losing 2, and we drew
1 game for 10 points and no relegation worries.
In the second half we won 3 and lost 4; that was a little bit
disappointing, and had we turned one of those losses into a win we
would have finished a creditable 3rd in the league. Overall we won
6 games, we lost 6 and drew 1 for a Goals For total of 24, 19 Against,
and 19 points for the season.
Overall it was a very enjoyable season. The highlight was beating the
eventual league winners Stop Out 2-nil at Fraser in the first round.
The lowlights were losing to a Seatoun team who hadn’t won a game,
and playing on a couple of absolute mud-patches at Grenada and
Alex Moore against the two North Wellington teams. (We won both
of these games).
The experiment of playing otherwise defender Kazz Taingahue up
front a third of the way into the season was a major success. Kazz
ended up as our top scorer with 8 goals, and she deservedly won the
Golden Boot.
Hanna Silvester unselfishly took over the goalkeeping role when Foxy
Pahl was required for the Central League team, and she did really
well. Hanna deservedly won the Most Valuable Player trophy. And
newcomer Ju O’Brien proved a real find, and won our Most Consistent
Player trophy for her ability to play wherever we selected her. She
never complained, and was happy to play anywhere on the park.
Finally it was pleasing that this team supported Leo’s Central League
squad throughout the season and we provided some 7 players at
various times to help him in his endeavours. (Rachel Corbett, Kazz
Taingahue, Lisa Pahl, Cha Teiri, Jessica McIntyre, Jo Morrison and
Helen Quirke).
Once again “big ups” to Mari Rogers for her managerial/baby sitting/
hypothermia/hot chocolate/lollies and oranges duties throughout.

Special thanks…
To Mike and Mari Rogers for almost 40 years of service to
Lower Hutt Football Club. Both are still very much actively
involved in the running of the Club, however, the Executive
Committee felt that their outstanding contribution deserved
formal acknowledgement at the recent End of Season
Prizegiving.

 Junior Development Programmes
Brendan McIntyre
School Holiday Programme
This is an area of the Junior Club that has really grown. We have seen
a huge increase in numbers in the last three years which has been
really encouraging. Players as young as 5 through to our 12th Grade
take part in the week of "fun football". The reason for the success is
down to a number of things. Firstly it is cost affective for parents and
families to accommodate for not just one child but for brothers and
sisters of different ages. We cater for players of differing abilities and
we have encouraged players to bring friends even if they are from a
different club. Along with making sure we have the right atmosphere
for the players to enjoy, it is after all their holiday and not just a place
where their parents dump them for the week. The coaches play a big
part and they have been instrumental in making it the success it has
now become. The numbers have been great and even if at times it
must look like a "baby sitting" exercise it has become a large part of
the Club in the holidays.
I look forward to seeing the wee faces turn up at Fraser Park gym
next year and listening for the wheels spinning as the parents leave
the car park!!!!
Football for Schools
Again 2010 has proved to be a very good year for our "Football for
Schools Programme". Our calendar for the year has been fully booked
since December last year, which shows the popularity of a Programme
that has really played a big part in many schools’ fitness and skills
regime. We have built some very good relationships with a number of
schools and we continue every year to introduce new schools where
ever possible. This year found us working alongside the World Cup to
make sure schools took full advantage of the events in South Africa
and to see so many schools book times as it was happening was
tremendous. Over the last few years Luis was our main coach till his
departure to Auckland but this year the responsibilities were shared
by a number of coaches; Pomare Te Anau and James McPeake took
over the reins in the early part of the year. James departed for his
Scholarship in America and soon we were joined by our new players
for the 2010 season. A returning old boy, Sam Blackburn and his
captain from Mobile University in Alabama, David Maddren, came to
join Pomare for the second half of the school year. When Sam and
6
Dave returned to Alabama, Pomare was joined by Ethan Galbraith
a young centre forward from Auckland, who continued to work with
Pomare. It was a good year and the feedback from the schools has
been really encouraging.
We now start the process all over again in the next few weeks to create
the calendar for 2011. Thanks to our involvement with the Fraser Park
Sportsville initiative, we have been approached to provide football
in schools as part of KiwiSport, a SPARC programme designed to get
more kids playing sport, and in our case football. We will be the pilot
for the programme. If it goes well they are looking to roll out over the
Wellington Region. It is a great opportunity and it is great to see the
work that has been put in over the last few years being recognised.
Here's looking forward to a great 2011 with "Football for Schools".
Football Academy / Goalkeeping Academy
Our Football Academy has been a huge success this year. We
introduced our 10th Grade team to the morning Academy for the first
time and, although initially the early start got a number of them, it
proved to be very successful. The 10th Grade didn’t have the best
year but I saw a number of signs to suggest that we will see a lot
more from these lads in the coming years. I was pleased to see them
turn up every Monday morning, generally after a loss to face the
music. However their attitude was always fantastic. I hope we see
the same commitment next year.
The 11th Grade had a very good year and it has been great to see a
number of the players continue on and progress well. I have been
with the players for a couple of years now and the next couple of
years will see them go on to be very fine players.
The 12th Grade, after a slow start to the season, went on to do very
well. It was great to see them turn round their year and the players
have been tremendous. Their attitude and commitment went long
way this year and I am expecting some big things from them next
year.
Pedro took the combined 13th/14th Grade and the reports suggest
that we have a number of top quality players coming through into the
Club in the next couple of years. Some of the 14th Grade were part of
the U19 training squad and they handled themselves very well.
The purpose of our Academy is to identify players at a young age and Darren and Erald provided the young players an insight into coaching

This has been running since the end of the season for 9th/10th
Grade (Tuesdays) and 11th Grade (Thursdays). Everyone is welcome
from each of the grades. It has proved to be very popular, and by
the reaction of the players it is something we need to continue or
introduce before the new season gets underway.

Coach Education
I was asked to become a Coach Educator for New Zealand Football
at the start of the year. The role was to deliver courses to coaches
as part of a NZF programme before the end of the year. We delivered
"Small Whites" and "Level 1" to new coaches and also the objective
was to upskill some existing coaches with some new ideas. The
courses were very well received but for whatever reason we struggle
to get the numbers; disappointing when the "Small Whites" course
was free.
It is an area that we need to push on with as many of our coaches
would really benefit from the extra knowledge these courses provide.
I hope we can encourage more coaches or budding coaches to take
up the opportunity to get more informed. As a Club it has to be one
of our priorities for 2011.

Rangers Soccer School

This was a tremendous coup for Lower Hutt City AFC to pull off. There
were a number of people instrumental in getting this project off the
ground, one in particular, namely Mr Jim Baxter.
Through Jim's determination and love of Glasgow Rangers he pushed
on and delivered an outstanding week of football for 110 junior
players. The Rangers coaches were outstanding; John, Willie, Fraser,

The Capital One Team had a fairly successful year finishing in 4th Balladares M 18
