Game 6 - Final Game

2 Down, 6 to Go

Great game boys! This one was much closer then Saturday's, but with a 2-0 win  it was a good one.  Several times, the boys were looking for each other to pass to, which was a great step,  we just need to work on getting in a position that will give us an advantage by making the pass.  Defense was strong, but we still need to get a little more aggressive at attacking the ball.  We changed up a few positions today and it worked out well, but we've got to improve upon  the good work you have all done so far.  There are 2 weeks before our next game, meanwhile I will spend some time reviewing the tape and when we get together for practice, Thursday at 6pm, come ready to  work.  But for tonight, enjoy the sweet victory.  Congratulations Fire!

Big Day Tomorrow

In preparation for tomorrow, I went for a light 4 mile run along the river. I wanted to make sure my mind was clear as I begin the strategy session tonight. Theresa took some video of the practice yesterday, so I'll be going over the tape to figure out the positions everyone will best fill

Make sure those boys get some rest tonight and encourage them to dream about the ball going in the back of the net, our opponent's net that is. See you all tomorrow, it's bound to be a great day.

Game 1 Next

Great practice out there today guys. Ball control has vastly improved since 2 weeks ago. Let's try to stay focused and get some rest, game day is next.
We've got to make today's practice count. First game is in two days, against the Tornados. The boys are making progress, but we've got to get one more good session in before Saturday. Needing to sharpen up our dribbling skills and look for the open man.
