Final Pre-Season Practice

We had our final pre-season practice today. Our primary focus today was on defense. Everyone showed up and we got to play a 5 on 5 scrimage at the end. Thanks to Hayden and Drew Ellis for helping out. We've come a long way since our first practice back on August 17th. Between the hot weather and the long practices, it's been a difficult pre-season. We have a young team so there was allot to learn in a relatively short period of time. The girls have worked very hard at practice this year and I'm looking forward to seeing them compete on Saturday.

Game

Our game is scheduled for 11:45. You'll need to be at the field no later than 11:30. If you can show up a little earlier than that, it would be better. We need time to get our line-ups set and warm up. Don't forget that we will be wearing Blue this week with black shorts and your team socks. Also, don't forget, no jewelry, have shinguards under the socks, not over, and wear legal cleats without a toe cleat. You won't be able to play if your uniform does not comply to JAWS rules.

Sara Cox will be our team captain this week. We'll have a different captain next week. Also, after the game, I'll be awarding soccer ball patches for defensive, and offensive players of the game, hustle award and overall player of the game.
