Soccer: Football Margaret River completes SWSA league double on memorable Sunday

Football Margaret River capped off a memorable SWSA season, claiming league titles in both the premier men’s and women’s competitions. Founded in 1986, the club marked its first-ever senior premierships on Sunday. In the men’s title race, FMR edged out Bunbury United 2-0, with a late penalty helping the home side to a championship. Elsewhere, Busselton City ended their season with a 3-0 win against the Harvey Hawks. Things were tighter in the premier women’s title race, with both FMR and Dunsborough able to win the league heading into the final day. Dunsborough did all they could, defeating Dalyellup 3-0. However, FMR’s 7-0 thrashing of Bunbury United was enough for them to be crowned champions. At Forrest Park in Bunbury, mid-table Australind were far too good for basement-bound Dynamos, victorious 8-2 in blustery conditions.
