Captains - Peter and Jonathan
MVP - Seth (sneaky attacking)
Another great game today from the Thunder. They faced a very tough team. To begin, I thought we would dominate the game pretty well, but the other team came alive and held us to only 1 second half goal. They were tough and a greta reason why I teach stingy and mean defending. Our boys can't be afraid to get in and take the ball. They certainly did that again this week and the game was very balanced as a result.
There were 2 highlights for me in the game. First, Jake's own goal. Sure we shouldn't put the ball in our own goal, but Jake just smiled and shook it off. No one was on his case, instead we say "that's OK" and move on. It was a reminder to me that we are all out there for fun. If we keep it fun, the kids will keep coming back for more. Great attitude from everyone Saturday.
Second, was a first ever goal. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it before in all of my playing years. Ryan L was on the goal line. The ball bounced off his hip and somehow managed to roll into the goal. It was pretty incredible. Great goal Ryan L. I know you meant to do it.
For the parents...great Fan Tunnels all season. This means a lot to the boys. Keep up the good work and all the positive cheering we hear from the sidelines. I have the best parents in the league - again.
