Our First Game of the Season



Let the season begin. It was a beautiful Saturday for early March. It was warm enough to work up a sweat, but not hot by any means.
We had lots of "firsts". It was actually the first time we've had all 10 kids together at one time this season. For 3 of our players, it was their first game ever. For 3 other players, it was the first time they'd played goalkeeper. One of them punted the ball like she'd never done in practice.
Our midfielders really hustled and "crashed the goal" very effectively. Our backs had some excellent passes from the back to the front which created some good scoring opportunities. Our forwards used their moves to get some great shots on goal. There's certainly plenty of stuff we need to practice, but Saturday's results were excellent.
And didn't the uniforms turn out nice. I think the girls loved them.
