Message: [QUOTE="AdamaNation, post: 4571213, member: 6793"] a note from kids U12 soccer club coach “As I told them before the game ‘I could easily give you an excuse as to why we don’t turn up today… I won’t do it.’ Cold, Wet, Rainy, only a sub or two, diabolical refereeing, all the excuses were there for them to fold and they didn’t. We’ve won games where we didn’t play as well as we did in either game this weekend. These are the games that when these guys are 17/18 years old they can look back and say that this weekend was one that shaped them as a players. Some absolutely heroic performances today with people being asked to do new jobs for the first time and also putting bodies on the line for the teams. I also felt like we got better in both halves so 2-0 us but also they didn’t get better at football ok the other side they just had a kid who could throw the ball far, that’s it. While they had a few good players, they didn’t beat us or get a draw against us at football they just had a shot-putter and a ref on their side. Excellent performance pressing the ball how I asked us to go together as a unit, moving the ball was good but not great, still more work to do there. See you all soon!” [/QUOTE]
