Game 6 - The Fire Wins 2-0

Sorry about the delay and no post or video uploaded from last weeks win.  This week we played the Bulldogs and the boys did much better then last week.  Last week, although we won, played one of the least organized and motivated games I've seen us play all season, but this week we made dramatic improvements.  We now have one more week to keep it together and show everyone the skill and improvements that these boys have been making.  Monday's practice was one of the best practices we had all season, we just need to keep it up and move their focus from the practice field to the game field so we can finish strong.  We have practice tomorrow and Monday, same time and place and the final 2 games next week (Tuesday and Saturday).  Enjoy the videos.

Half Way Through the Season - Still Undefeated!

What a game, what a game.  The boys made for a tremendous comeback last night to salvage a 1-1 tie in the last 2 minutes of play.  We played a mighty tough team "The Tigers" and some mighty tough players.  We had two injuries, Patrick B., who took a shot to the ribs and Vinson received a ball to the face late in the game.  Fortunately, neither injury was too traumatic. I think both players will have a full recovery before next week's match.  We were even able to turn the last injury and a very fortunate decision by the referee giving us a free kick, which enabled Josh to score a beautiful goal in the lower 90 that allowed us to maintain our undefeated season. 

The Augusta Fire is playing much tougher and with much more skill and control than they have all season.  Their acceptance to take direction and to follow that direction has been much improved.  Everyone's foot work and vision for the ball, is getting better and better. Great work last night guys! This next week we will work a bit more on passing and leading your teammate with the ball.  Rest up, you certainly deserved it, but don't get too complacent, we still half half the season left. 


Next practice is Thursday night, 6pm at the baseball field by Warren Road school. See you then.
