Galactics III, the Galactics youngsters (U20), played the Chairman's Cup in this year's State Cup.  This highly competitve tournament marked the team's first tournament participation and the entire team is to be highly commended for their achievement in making it all the way to the finals and coming home in good spirits with the Finalist Trophy.

The FSSL 3rd Division team, played against 2nd Division teams in this tournament and were able to hold their ground until the final game against SPSC Tavern, when they ceded the first place victory to this strong team.

Galactics III won the FSSL Division 3 Cup shortly before the State Cup Finals and will soon be competing at higher levels.  Good luck for the future and keep it up.
