Summary

The season is over. After many months of training, playing soccer and enjoying each others company, the season is over. This has been one of the best teams I've had in my 13 years of coaching. All the players get along very well.

This last weekend, the girls played their best soccer of the year. One month ago we changed our line up from a 4-4-2 to a 3-5-2. The tournament this weekend went very well, we missed going through to the Association Cup by 1 goal. I was happy, even through we didn't go through, the girls are playing great, having fun, enjoying the game and off to play high now. Good luck in High School girls and I look forward to seeing you in March for the start of spring season.
