We looked good out there Saturday! Everyone was revved up and ready to play. The girls rallied with a 4-2 win. Madison got the first goal of the season in the Forward (offense) position with an assist from Megan (left mid). Samantha scored in the second period (left mid) with an assist from Olivia (center mid). In the third period, Samantha got on in (center mid) from an assist by Rachel (left mid). Shannon had a crowd pleasing header as well. We actually are practicing these unexpected bumps to the head. And finally Carly got our fourth goal in the fourth period (center mid) with an assist by Amanda (right mid).
In practice we were concentrating on playing within their ZONE and looking for good passes, not just lucky random kicks at the ball. The girls need to PLAY with PURPOSE. That was our mantra of the week. They will need to start making quick decisions while on the field and using some new maneuvers to move and pass the ball.
Side note: The girls continue to practice hard. Please have your daughters wear their hair up in a pony tail to practices and games. It shows me they are prepared and ready to play. Thanks.
