Palm Beach-based Tiger Kings took away the Men’s crown – and the prize money – at the Kingaroy Senior Soccer Club’s annual Soccer 7s carnival at the weekend.<\/p>\n

Tiger Kings defeated the Hervey Bay-based United 2.0 side, fielded by the United Warriors Football Cub, 1-0 in the tense men’s final of the two-day competition on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The annual Kingaroy Soccer 7s carnival attracted 55 teams to the Tom Alford Soccer Fields in Kingaroy.<\/p>\n

Many return year-after-year to take part.<\/p>\n

In the Women’s final, last year’s winners Caboolture Cobras successfully defended their title – and took home the cash – by downing Gympie United 1-0.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both teams had to survive penalty shootouts in the semi-finals to earn a spot in the final.<\/p>\n

The Men’s Over 35s competition was taken out by Highfields who defeated Athletic No 2-0.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two South Burnett-based teams, Booie Bullets and Solomon Kings 1, were eliminated in the Men’s semi-finals ensuring visiting teams took home all the winnings.<\/p>\n

However, the carnival itself is a winner for the South Burnett, with hundreds of players and their supporters arriving in town on Friday to take part in two days of competition.<\/p>\n

It was also a boost for the Kingaroy Girl Guides who collected empties for Containers For Change across the weekend as a fundraiser for the group.<\/p>\n
