In beautiful weather 2000 witnessed the "Soccer” match between the Australians and Westland, and after an interesting encounter the visitors were victorious by two goals to The Westlanders scored early as the result of a good cross shot by Grey (centre forward), which gave Cartwright no chance. The Westlanders, with the wind in their favour, relied on individual play in the first half, and held their own till after half-time. The second spell saw the visitors continuously pressing, good combination being shown, though time after time they failed to notch a goal at the critical moment.
