IONA FC will take on Coffs City FC in an “Interclub Challenge” on Saturday, 28 March.
The clubs will do battle across eight grades, from junior boys and girls to senior men and women.
Games will take place at Saint Columba Anglican School (SCAS), with the first kick-off at 9:30am.
Play will continue throughout the day with the premier senior men’s game commencing at 2.15pm.
“The challenge works that every game contributes to each club’s points awarded for the day,” said Iona Sports Club Football President Paul Stephens.
“The club with the most points after all games have been played is then declared the winner and takes home the Interclub Challenge trophy.”
This is the second time the competition has been played.
The first, in 2024, was declared a draw, with both clubs having four wins each.
The event was cancelled due to wet weather in 2025.
“In 2026 both clubs are looking forward to great competition and hoping to take the trophy back home,” Paul said.
