Kyabram Knights soccer team emerged from the Shepparton Junior Soccer Association’s annual Gala Day as the only unbeaten under-10 team.

The event is held on the same day as grand finals for the remaining four divisions.

Throughout the season under-10 teams do not score their games, so there is no ladder, winners or losers.

The Gala Day allows the younger players an opportunity to experience finals like games, and format, with scoring on this one day.

They played four games during the day, winning all 4 games: 2-1 against St Luke's Stars, 6-1 against Tatura Junior Soccer Club , 4-1 against Shepparton East Rockets and 3-0 against Kialla United.

This secured them a spot in the grand final, where they met St Luke's Stars again and won 2/1.
