We’ve been waiting for this one! The Six-A-Side game has been described as fast break football for a reason.
🏈🏈
Rare is the game that does not see the score reach into the 60S - sometimes by both teams. It can be a workout for both players and officials alike, but can also deliver some of the most exciting games in the province during the fall.
🏈🏈
This week’s game features two undefeated teams vying for first place in the Eastern Division of the Six-A-Side HS league in their last regular season match-up. So fill up the bleachers as Millwoods Christian Royals take on J. C. Charyk Hawks this Friday!
