The NC Tigers rolled into Atlanta last Saturday with numbers, hungry for some Kookaburras! It was a high scoring game with a heated battle in the 1st and 2nd quarter, but after some scuffles in the 3rd the mighty Tigers began to pull away for a final score of 123 to 83.

Some notable talent up front by Austin Doerr as he scored the most goals for the Tigers as he was setup by Andrew Piner after some great crumb work. In addition, two North Carolina State University exchange students, Anthony and Aaron, from Aussie land joined the Tigers for a fantastic weekend in ATL.

The Tigers recharge and get ready to host the East Coast Conference Tournament at home turf in Raleigh, North Carolina for the weekend of June 24. Don’t miss out on the great action as many teams from all over will be attending. Details to come!

NC Tigers host their first night Metro game on a crisp October night. Tigers took the field at 7 PM with great numbers! The black team dominated the first half with newcomers putting in the work. Mike and Pete, who were on the black team, worked the middle without much contest that led to many early goals. After players swapped teams, the white team began to make a comeback, but didn’t have enough to take the lead as they lost 78-42.

After the scrimmage, grill-master Shane cooked some fantastic hot dogs and everyone enjoyed some cold refreshments. Stu brought home a sack full of hot dogs as a snack for later. All in all, it was a great night for footy and thanks to Scott and Red for umpiring!

Saturday was a great day for football and a magnificent win for the North Carolina Tigers! The Kookaburras showed up with a solid team, which made for a tight game in the third quarter, but the Tigers broke away in the fourth quarter.

After the game, family and friends reconvened for fantastic food at Patrick Jane’s Gourmet Pizza Bar & Bistro.

Atlanta Kookaburras travel to Raleigh to take on the hungry NC Tigers who won the away game by a narrow margin earlier in the season. A sizzling hot Saturday afternoon game out in Garner NC starts at 2 PM with a friendly social at Patrick Jane’s Gourmet Pizza Bar immediately after.

Friends and family, grab a chair, grab a drink, and come on out to support your Tigers!
