The first pre-season friendly of the season against Goodwood United, on an extremely dry, sandy and uneven field, was deemed to be more an exercise to enable Coach Grant to assess players in a variation of positions and experiment with team structure and shape. 

Although the game was, at times, a feisty affair, there were some positives and a lot of learnings taken from the game and the performance of the players/teams.

Final Score: Goodwood Utd 1 Bellville City FC 0
