CICHANOWSKI SHIELD 2014
The 2013 Premier League winners from Saturday (BOSA) & Sunday (Parafield Gardens) will playoff for the Cichanowski Shield this Sunday 30th March at Bradman Road Parafield Gardens. The Shield is the first bit of silverware on offer at the start of the 50th SAASL season that will again open up the Saturday vs Sunday debate. Will we see a Sunday team continue its dominance or will we see a Saturday team finally get their hands on it, regardless it promises to be a great day of Amateur Soccer.
PARAFIELD GARDENS vs BOSA
C team - 11.30am KO
B team - 1.10pm KO
Cichanowski Shield - 3.00pm KO
Look forward to seeing a great crowd down at Bradman Road with full bar, canteen & BBQ facilities available & the presentation taking place in the clubrooms after the main game.

Re: CICHANOWSKI SHIELD 2014
Should they look at renaming the Cichanowski Shield?
Cichanowski Shield to me has always been the Sunday Div 1 winner v Cup Winner
With the change now being Saturday Prem winner v Sunday Prem winner, should they shelve the Cichanowski Shield & rename it with a new title??

If that were the case, SAASL just give the Shield to Gardens who then could hold an internal game.haywood djablowme wrote:Should they look at renaming the Cichanowski Shield?

Re: CICHANOWSKI SHIELD 2014
I actually agree with the change personally even if it does benefit the Saturday comp was never a fan of the Champions of Champions concept & the timing. I think the Cichanowski Shield is held in high asteem & is a sort after trophy as a prelude to the season. Alex's contriubution to the SAASL should be recognised especially now its Sat vs Sun league winners & his efforts in facilitating the strength & growth of both competitions seems fitting to me.haywood djablowme wrote:Should they look at renaming the Cichanowski Shield?

And more importantly the Shield has spent alot of time recently at the Gardens.

Congratulations to Parafield Gardens for their 2-1 win in the 2014 Cichanowski Shield. BOSA took the game right up to Parafield but unfortunately for them, BOSA weren't able to capitalise on their early chances and good build ups...eventually Gardens seemed to over-run the visitors as the game progressed.

I think that's the one I'm thinking of. Propect Juniors (??) play cricket there.
