Half way through the season, still a long way to go!

I'm a little behind on this post and uploading the video to the blog. I've still yet to have a chance to view it in it's entirety myself. But "it's better late than never" as they say.

Tuesday's game we played very well, although we did play against a much younger opponent. But the boys did great and they are continuing to get better week by week. We're keeping our positions a little better, looking for the open man (some times) and beginning to understand the game better as a team. All this in addition to the ball control getting better each week, we are bound to have a great rest of the season. Let's keep it up, we still have half a season to go.

Special thanks to Nora Bernard for filming the video. I hope you all enjoy.

Game 2 - Much Better

Good game last night guys. It seemed we were a little less bunched up and held our positions much better. Coach Jeff even pointed out how he actually heard some of you talking to each other.

We got off to a quick start in the first quarter with Kegan scoring a goal to give us the lead. Clark was then able to stick two more in the back of the net to extend our lead to 3-0 by the end of the first quarter. As the second quarter lineup came on the field, you could tell the Bulldogs were no match for us. Patrick Bernard scored another goal and by half time we were up 4-0. And that was all we needed.

The second half we came mighty close to giving up a few goals, but in the end our defense prevailed.  Great work all around, let's keep improving for the remainder of the season. Special thanks to Geema Bernard for filming the game which is  now posted. Hope you all enjoy.

Good Start to the Season But a Long Way to Go!

Good start to the season boys. We looked a bit shaky at times throughout the game last night and we've got some kinks to work out with the new lineup of 5 a side, but all in all it was a good start.

Tonight's game started off fast, by halftime with several shots having just missed the netting or hit the posts, we remained tied 0-0.  In the third quarter, Clark Jackson was finally able to get us on the board with a great strike in the back of the net to lead the game 1-0. Then at the beginning of  the fourth quarter, Patrick Bernard, like only Patrick B can, extended our lead with a great goal to put us up 2-0. And with our defense holding up strong, we maintained that lead to the end.  Great job guys, though we have much work to do, good start and good win.
