AN unexpected visitor turned up at the Soccersixes league in Camborne to present the player of the month trophies - Santa!

Santa visited to present the player of the month trophy and free kits to the teams. The player of the month was awarded to Richard Maycroft and Dave Pearce who were awarded the trophies following an outstanding season.

The award was chosen by Ian Clarke, the league manager, and he commented: "I think Richard and Dave have been everyone's player of the month; they have been absolutely outstanding and Richard also just missed out on the top goalscorer trophy. Richard has been selected and Dave is through to the last 16 for the Soccersixes elite squad that will participate in the FA National Small sided Cup'.

As Soccersixes leagues are affiliated to the FA, teams will be invited shortly that play in any soccersixes league to enter the FA National Small Sided Cup due to be held in May next year at the magnificent new Wembley stadium.

Soccersixes will invite 200 teams from their network to participate in the tournament that promises to be a big attraction as the finals are going to be held at the new stadium.

There will be around 2,000 six-a-side teams taking part in the national event - all you have to do to enter is call Soccersixes.

Teams that wish to enter the national need to be part of the sixes league and new teams will be pleased to know there are still two places available on Sundays at Cornwall College.

All new teams get free kits and new teams can contact Soccersixes on 0870 33 00 888 or 07717 845223 or register online at www.soccersixes.net - there is no registration fee.
