We had a good effort by all the boys this past weekend, but we lost 8-0. That's okay, just means we have to work on some things harder. Remember, we're a new team and it will take some time for us to gel.
While we did have great effort, we had some issues with boys not passing and trying to keep the ball too long. That almost always results in loss of possession. We have to learn to pass the ball and work as a team. We also didn't talk much out there so no one knew when anyone was open. We also had a problem with kicking the ball to the center of the field right in front of our goal. All of the other team's goals came as a result of that.
On the plus side, we has great throw-ins, we shut down their corner kicks and we played with them for the first 15-20 minutes of the game before we kinda fell apart.
I hope everyone still had fun, because that's what it's about. I am looking forward to our team getting better each game and learning from the teams we play against.
Our next game is against the Cougars at 12:45. We are the home team, so we will be wearing the blue side of our jerseys no matter what the other team's colors are. Please be at the field 30 minutes before the game so we can warm up and work out last minute details.
This link will take you to my facebook link of photos Martha Dawn, Kameron's mom took of the game. You should NOT have to be a member of facebook to view these photos. Please let me know if you have trouble viewing them.
See ya at Monday practice at 5:30pm!
