Victorians skip over KO Preliminaries
Naxxar Victorians will face derby rivals Mosta Vikings on the first matchday of the new season in MAFA Division Three. This was announced during Wednesday’s draw for the campaign by the Association.
This season begins on September 16 with the Twanny Agius Cup, one which pits against each other the winners of each division’s Fair Play award winners of last season. This means that the Victorians will start their commitments at a later stage. The team will be making use of the Qormi grounds for the season.
With fixtures being officially confirmed by Friday August 4, the first matchday was drawn with our boys facing a Mosta side that returns to MAFA after a season’s absence as the derby rivalry restarts this year.
Apart from Mosta, the club’s opponents this coming season will be Kalkara Flames, Hamrun Amateurs, and Hal Far Titans.
Meanwhile, in the knockout competition, Naxxar Victorians have avoided the Preliminary round of fixtures and will play immediately in the first round. Our first opponent this year will be Division Two side Ghaxaq Wolves.
