Ole Academy, New Turf Opened

Porirua Mayor Nick Leggett formerly opened the Ole Football Academy's new artificial turf with a ceremony and occasion matching the quality of the new facility.

The $1 million dollar turf was being put through its paces by a posse of junior locals overseen by their more senior and experienced academy hopefuls.  

It was a time for all round celebration as Ole's chairman and facility mastermind Dave Wilson praised the efforts of all around to bring his dream to fruition.

Taking pride of place were the Packagoals that caught the eye of many, especially at the conclusion of the opening ceremony with Mayor Leggett showing off his footballing prowess by launching a shot into a nearby Futsal Goal.
