The Matamata Club Swifts Reserves notched a second consecutive victory following their best performance of the season against Claudelands Rovers reserves.

Two late goals from centre forward, Jono Monteith, capped an excellent game up front for the young speedster. Monteith's pace and strength meant he was a constant menace to the visiting defenders.

The back three of Nickco Kampshof, Pete Challis and Chris Bedggood performed admirably for Matamata. They had to be strong against their experienced opponents and, aided by Richard Paradizo in goal and the experienced Eric Van Waveran sitting just in front, held firm. Mike Collins and Allan Ferreira were good in midfield feeding the impressive Monteith up front.

After a shaky start the reserves have now got their season well and truly underway. A settled line-up and a more cohesive game plan are leading to more consistent performances and better results for the side.
