International SC to host Regional Round fixture
Football Federation SA (FFSA) is pleased to announce International Soccer Club will host the 2015 PlayStation 4 National Premier League (NPL) South Australia Regional Round fixture between MetroStars and Adelaide City.
Following the success of the 2014 Regional Round fixture, two PlayStation 4 NPL sides will again play a match for competition points in Mount Gambier.
Held on Saturday 14 March 2015, the ‘Mount’ couldn’t ask for a better fixture in MetroStars and Adelaide City.
Crowned the 2014 PlayStation 4 National Champions of Australia, MetroStars will be a fierce contender in the local PlayStation 4 NPL competition this season along side Adelaide City who also saw national success in 2014 with their Westfield FFA Cup campaign. The black and whites were the only Member Federation side to knock-out an A-League club (Western Sydney Wanderers) in the inaugural competition.
In their first Regional Round fixture since its inception, both sides are looking forward to taking their game to Mount Gambier and to International Soccer Club.
