East Vs. FCD

2009-08-25T18:59:00.000-07:00

It is always difficult to begin a season against one of your toughest opponents, but you ladies handled it well. There is still room for improvement of course, and as a whole we have a clearer picture of what we need to work on.

The final and official score was 9-0. With the majority of our play being on the defensive end. A new line-up strategy in the second half did have us playing much stronger and spreading the field. There was a great goal attempt, and near miss. Several saves by Sarah and a great goal stop by Wrenn.

We were glad that each player got an opportunity to play in this first match, and as we tighten up the line-ups we appreciate your willingness to try new positions.

Player of the Game: Wrenn Williams

I'm not going to sugar coat it.. it's back to basics tomorrow!!

Team Dinner

2009-08-23T08:01:00.001-07:00

Many thanks to the Fiore family for arranging this!!

2009-08-10T09:43:00.000-07:00

Ladies,

Due to the heat that is forecasted for this week, our practice schedule will be changing. Today we will meet at 6:00 pm. As we can not physically practice until 7:oo pm, Coach Riley and I think that this would be a great time for us to have our team meeting for the first hour. We will discuss uniforms, fund rasing, rules, and expectations, as well as address your questions and select team captains. We will then practice from 7:00 pm until 8:00 pm. Tomorrow we will be practicing in the morning from 8:30 am to 10:00 am. We will discuss the rest of this week's schedule tonight.

As none of us can control the weather, we will all need to be flexible to make sure that we are ready for our first game, which will take place on the first day of school.

Practice For Next Week

Ladies:

Next week will mark 3 weeks until Tryouts begin (Aug 3rd 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.)! I hope that all of you have been taking this time during the summer to condition and work on your skills on your own, as we need everyone in top shape so we can be competitive this year.

As you know we have been having optional conditioning and skills training practice at our field @ first Baptist Church on Oakhurst. We have been holding these practices on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursdays, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., but due to low turn out we now will only be meeting on Tuesday and Thursdays from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. If you will be attending these paractices please either send an e-mail to Coach Riley (mriley@triad.rr.com) or myself (neda.j.pitt@aexp.com) or post on the website which practice you will be attending. This will save Coach Riley and me the drive out to the field if no one is going to show for that days practice. Thank you in advance for your consideration of our time.

Keep practicing and conditioning- Looking forward to a great year!!!
