The Ryde Panthers U15-1s, under the guidance of coach Nav Singh, have secured a spot in the 2025 State Cup final, scheduled for Sunday, July 13, at Valentine Sports Park . This achievement follows their impressive run to the Champions of Champions grand final last year, where they narrowly lost 1-0 to Belrose Terrey-Hills Raiders SC.
The upcoming final presents an opportunity for the Panthers to claim a state cup and build upon their previous successes under coach Nav Singh.
Ryde Panthers President Kim Clifton highlighted that “we are extremely proud of the team. They have worked extremely hard to get this far, not to mention they are also a nice bunch of lads. Navjot (Nav) Singh is one of the best ‘C’ Licence coaches at the Club. Testament to the fact that he dedicates a great deal of time and effort to the team. Nav gets great support from Assistant Coach, Gareth Chandler and the Team’s Manager, Andrew Abram.”
“Last year, as U14.1 team won the Premiership, and were runners up in the Champion of Champions, in their 3rd attempt at the title. A worthy recipient of the inaugural NWSF ‘Bill Plaskett Trophy’ for the best First Division Team in the Association. Well done to all!”
The entire North West Sydney Football community is encouraged to support the Panthers at Valentine Sports Park on July 13. Kick-off is on VSP Field 3 at 9.45am, and we encourage our NWSF community to get out and support!
