Turner Freeman Scorpions Teams
Under 13s: Gloucester Scorpions 2 – 0 Wingham Warriors
What an absolute nail-biter! The Under 13s started early with a 9am kick-off in cold but sunny conditions, facing the Wingham Warriors — the same team that defeated them earlier in the season.
In an incredibly tight match, every player stepped up when it counted. Hard-fought goals from Eli and Henry sealed the win, and a strong defensive effort kept the Warriors from finding the net.
An outstanding team performance!
Under 11s: Final Score — Gloucester Scorpions 6 – 1 Pumas
After a slow start, the Under 11s found their stride in the second half, dominating the match with fantastic teamwork and a strong back line. Notable moments included Will’s run from kick-off to score a cracking goal and Max’s first goal of the season. Another fabulous effort from the team!
Mens Senior League: Final Score — Gloucester Scorpions 4 – 1 Tuncurry Gold
The Men’s Senior League team came out strong against Tuncurry Gold, asserting their dominance from the first whistle and quickly getting on the scoreboard. The final result was a well-deserved 4–1 victory for Gloucester.
Kick for Chloe Fundraiser
This week, the Gloucester Soccer Club came together for an incredible cause.
What started out as a small fundraiser grew into an amazing community event, with extremely generous businesses and people donating prizes for the Silent Auction, and every dollar from canteen sales going towards Chloe’s treatment.
In total, across the weekend, the Gloucester Scorpions scored 52 goals — and for every goal, the club donated $25.
With countless volunteers, donors, and supporters getting involved, we’re proud to announce that together we raised $5,230.50!
Thank you to everyone who donated, bid, played, watched, or worked behind the scenes — your hard work, kindness, and generosity have made a huge difference to Chloe and her family.
Thank you to all the players, volunteers, families, and donors who came together to make this weekend so special. The Gloucester Soccer Club is deeply grateful for your ongoing support and proud to be part of such a strong and caring community.
