Local News Wrap. Canberra FC the winners

Women's League news, Mens Premier Scores round-up with thanks to Russ Gibbs.

The push is on to secure a Canberra team in the women's league. With a decision expected on the make up of the new league soon, hope is growing that a region that has produced more women national players than Victoria, Western Australia and South Australia in recent years, will be in the league.

Men's League.
Canberra FC were the big winners on the weekend. They were the only team to win and close that gap to just one point on league leaders Belconnen who could only draw. The other winners were probably the ANU...who didn't play!

Great results for Queanbeyan City and Canberra City. Queanbeyan secured their first point of the season. And Canberra City grabbed a point against the higher placed Tuggeranong United.
