      Macedonian Cup Victoria - February 13/14.



      Macedonian Cup 2010 (Press Release)
      “Bringing the ethnic Macedonian Community together”
      13th February and 14Th February 2010

      On December 22 2009 & January 8 2010 the ethnic Macedonian Clubs of Victoria met and agreed to resurrect the annual tournament of ethnic Macedonian Clubs.
      The tournament aims to bring together all the ethnic Macedonian Clubs to build a better cohesion between our clubs, so we can continue to work collectively towards building and uniting our community and the continued success and support of our clubs.
      The motto for this year’s cup will be “Bringing the Macedonian Community together”
      A representative committee of all Macedonian Clubs has been formed and will be responsible for managing the tournaments. The tournament will be an annual event and the hosting of the tournament will be rotated amongst all the clubs. The Host Club is responsible for organising the running of the tournament on the day in accordance to the rules, policies and guidelines agreed by all clubs.
      The 2010 tournament will be hosted by Altona Gate Magic and will be played on the Saturday 13th February and the finals will be played on Sunday 14th February.
      The host for 2011 will be via a ballet drawn after the grand final.
      The Macedonian Cup will have three competitions that clubs can compete for.
      1. The Senior Men’s- The Premier event of the Tournament.
      2. Reserves- To involve and encourage the younger boys in the community.
      3. Open Women’s- To encourage and involve the women’s teams as a part of our community.
      The participating teams will be divided into two groups who will play a round robin with the top two teams of each group playing off in the finals.
      The Competing clubs will be Altona Magic (Vardar SC), Geelong (Makedonija SC), Keilor Wolves SC, Noble Park (Makedonija), Plenty Valley Lions (Lerin FC), Preston Lions (Makedonija) SC, Sydenham Park (Makedonija) SC & Lalor (Sloga) United.

      Pascoe Vale and Shepparton have both been invited and will participate in coming years. Pascoe Vale was unfortunately already committed to playing in the Moreland Cup with Shepparton not having enough time to prepare due to their late start to pre-season. Shepparton committee and supporters wish us all success sanctioning the tournament and informing us that they will attend the event in a spectator capacity this year.

      “Bringing the ethnic Macedonian Community together”
      On Behalf of the following clubs:
      Altona Magic (Vardar SC)
      Geelong (Makedonija SC)
      Keilor Wolves SC
      Noble Park (Makedonija)
      Plenty Valley Lions (Lerin FC)
      Preston Lions (Makedonija) SC
      Sydenham (Makedonija) SC
      Lalor (Sloga) United

          Bratot, I thought you are from Australia?
          МАКЕДОНЕЦ си кога кавал ќе ти ја распара душата,зурла ќе ти го раскине срцето,кога секое влакно од кожата ќе ти се наежи кога ќе видиш шеснаесеткрако сонце,кога до коска ќе те заболи кога ќе слушнеш ПЈРМ,кога немаш ни за леб,а полн си во душата затоа што ја сакаш МАКЕДОНИЈА. МАКЕДОНИЈА во срце те носиме.

            Nope mate, I'm a part of a small group of Macedonian diaspora living in Central Europe.

            But in the Macedonian spirit with all of you, doesn't matter how far we are.

              Well done to the Macedonians in Victoria. This is great!
              You want Macedonia? Come and take it from my blood!

              A prosperous, independent and free Macedonia for Macedonians will be the ultimate revenge to our enemies.

                Sounds great.
                Hate the "ethnic" thing all over the place.

                  Seriously, is it just me that finds the "ethnic" label somewhat demeaning in the promotional blurb?

                        The word "ethnic" was used 5 times in that little bit of text.
                        It disgusts me to think that some people think there is confusion as to what is MACEDONIAN in Australia. Believe me Bratot, this confusion does not exist and if it is a problem in Melbourne, then it is a new one instigated by the Greeks.

                        I find it utterly distasteful and demeaning to Macedonians in this context.

                        I see it only ever being useful in geographical Macedonia outside of the Republic of Macedonia. In which case it describes Macedonians who clearly are something more than people who simply reside in the geographical area of Macedonia.

                          I understand now, I couldn't know how are the things in Australia. At first sight I didn't noticed any problem with the term.

                            Would there be any doubt about using just the term "Macedonian" in Poland Bratot? Or would you need to put "ethnic" in front of it?

                              No, not for me.
