New Blood: Black Hawk United

Black Hawk United make their first participation in the Mauritian Futsal Cup, having never participated in any of the Champions Cup Tournaments. The team formed a few years ago and has been active playing indoor soccer at Box Hill Indoor Sports Centre. However, with their Mauritian heritage and after having heard of the Mauritian Futsal Cup (MFC), Black Hawk United is interested in getting a taste for futsal, the FIFA governed version of indoor soccer.

Black Hawk United is composed of:
  • Rony Roussetty (captain)
  • Matt Moothia (vice captain)
  • Jaysen Thomas
  • Naresh Teeluck
  • Yannick
The vice captain, Matt Moothia, is an ex-L'Equipe du Dimanche player and is looking forward to meeting his old L'Equipe du Dimanche team mates (who are in various other teams competing in the MFC) on the pitch. He looks forward to some fun and friendliness on the pitch, however, he knows that in the end, it will be competitive. In particular, he admits that The Replacements, will definitely be the team to beat.

It appears that the ranks of Black Hawk United is currently quite thin as they have only five players in their squad. Hopefully they will be able to recruit more players as the fast and non-stop pace of the MFC will be extremely challenging with such a minimal squad.
