Another good weekend for the FIRE. We were missing the talents of Cobe and Jaden and the leadership of Coach Eric. Though the game felt sluggish at times, we pulled through and had a game to be happy with. Next time we have a 9am game, I'm imposing a Friday night - 8pm lights out policy for the team!!! kidding of course...but not a bad idea.

Didn't the new bench look great on the sideline? The boys loved sitting on it. They thought it was pretty cool also. Thank you again to all of the parents for chipping in.

Some highlights from the game.
1. Sam was playing with a lot of maturity in the back for us. He doesn't jump in and attack (which is good). He watched the play develop, and steadily would move in for the kill. This is why he was MVP. Defenders can't just be agressive. Better attackers will win if our defenders aren't able to study what is happening. Sam showed us that this weekend.

2. Cole's brace. Cole suddenly woke up and decided "I'm going to score a couple goals, and no one is stopping me" I love it. He really has done well this season so far.

3. We went to goal very well. I can think of instances when most everyone on the team had a hand in the attack and chance on goal. We need to finish more shots, but that will be the easy part. Building the attack is the hard part. Well done boys!!!!

We have a Challenger session tonight (Monday) at Aspen Creek - 6pm.
See you all there
