Dave Deacon Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 CCFA Finals day Great news for Hayle AFC who have been chosen to host the 2011 CCFA Senior and Junior Cup Finals on Easter Monday April 25th. As such a prestigious local soccer event comes rarely to a club like Hayle, they are already realising they will need all the help they can get. Volunteers are already being sought! Congratulations to the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kempy Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 I have heard that the Senior and Junior cup finals ( from radio Cornwall) are being held at Hayle. Well done as the surface i would say is one of the best in the County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winston Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 well done Hayle, I have to feel abit for those competing for a place in the showpiece cup finals, especially the junior cup players, who look forward to the experience and playing such a huge game at places like st blazey, wadebridge and truro etc. maybe a slight anti climax at hayle. Just my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion! I did play in a cup final at Bickland park and it was good to go up the steps to get the Cup But i think that it is good to give it to someones team who takes pride in his pitch If Cornwall had a stadium venue for both Rugby and Football it would the the real deal. :c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyblueref Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 It'll only be a couple of minutes drive from my house to the ground to watch Pz in the final And if they do make it, most of the team will know every blade of grass having played their home games there last year. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Odgers Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Many congratulations to Hayle F C and Mr.Hayle himself Ian Gregory for staging the showpiece of Cornish football. It took the C.C.F.A many years to break the tradition of staging the Cup Finals away from Poltair Park (St.Austell) in the 70's. Now they break from tradition from the big clubs of Cornwall hosting the Finals. My first thoughts are that this is a go at the authorities who over ruled the County rule book which states no other football in Cornwall(pm)on Easter Monday . On Easter Monday Truro City take on Weymouth Town in the fnal Southern League game of their season just 15 or so miles from Hayle. As Treyew Road staged last seasons Finals I would have thought the C C F A would be looking far as possible up East of the County. Anyway lets all get behind Hayle who deserve this honour for its top quality playing surface -I'll be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

green&whitebarmyarmy Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 when we played the senior cup final last year there were games on the same day which we were disappointed in as it would have been nice to get a few more at truro, congrats to hayle, always a great surface there, nice to see a so called small club getting to host the final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Common Tater Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Mike Odgers makes a good point. Truro's game may well be vital to whether or not they stay in the playoff positions or not, which would normally merit a large crowd due to the generally-interested floating spectator, most of whom would normally go to the County Finals. It will be interesting in the anorak sense to see how attendances at both occasions are affected. Of course, if the outcome of Truro's game is immaterial to their fate this season the "floaters" will go to Hayle. Big day for a little club - best of luck to them: do they have the necessary facilities and infrastructure to pull it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big day for a little club - best of luck to them: do they have the necessary facilities and infrastructure to pull it off? 4 changing rooms all passed for western league [no waiting for one team to leave before the next can get in] refs room big enough for 8 (used to be old reserve changing room] youth pitch to side of main pitch for warm-ups A seated stand that holds 90 with disabled bays and covered standing. car park large enough for 4 teams [players officials etc] 2 pitches across road for a spectator car park regularly hold the kernow youth league finals where hundreds attend. I'm sure they will cope with their excellant facilities and set-up, and who else in the county comes close with the exception of maybe Wendron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansome dan Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Well done "Greg" BIGGER PICTURE springs to mind,who would have thought just 11 years ago we were facing relegation to fal/hel 2 but you were quick to see the bigger picture and were a tremendous help on and off the pitch through our climb up thru the leagues.Your playing surface was very instrumental in attracting the likes of Chris Coleman,Dave N,jie and Lee Norman to the club and therefore start the transformation of Hayle fc.An exciting ride up thru the leagues with you on the line at our first senior game at penryn and regularly attending disciplinarys at ccfa usually with lee "i take it we will be appealing" one of your classic quotes thru the years . Even i would not have dreamt that we would have been hosting such prestigious finals but it just goes to show what can be achieved thru dedication like yours.Thank you very much it is very appreciated. On a personal note i hope its a St Austell /Penzance final,my hometown club vs my adopted at Hayle would be a dream for me,many good people at both clubs deserve it. :c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
