Fall 2007 Intro

Well I have neglected this blog for long enough.

My co-ed team from Spring 2006 has become 2 teams. We merged with the remnants another co-ed team (2 players) and also a girls team (4 players). We also picked up 3 new girls, and (most helpful of all) an assistant coach!

We now have 26 players on the 2 teams. There are 16 girls on the girls team and 10 boys on the co-ed team. Four of my more experienced girls (Corinne, Dejah, Shelby, & Brooke) are also playing on the co-ed team.

We're practicing on Tuesdays & Thursdays. On Thursdays, 4 of my boys (Luke, Nathan, Jason, Leighton) practice with Coach C's advanced team.

Both teams had their first games last Saturday. The co-ed team went first and played the 2nd place team from the A division last year. We finished 2nd in the B's and were moved up to the A's for this season. The halftime score was 4-3 them and then we came apart in the 2nd half, losing by a score of 9-3.

The girls game was similar, but with less scoring. The score was 2-1 them at halftime, and the final was 5-1. Our only goal came off an indirect free kick where Dejah tapped the ball and Hannah M. knocked it in!

We have this weekend off and our next set of games on September 8th.
