Practice 4/15

We enjoyed another beautiful evening for practice on Thursday. We worked on foot skills and passing, and spent a good amount of time getting the players used to passing ahead of teammates and then running to the ball. Those through passes are key to breaking down defenses, and we will continue to work on running to and passing to space on the field.

After practice we had our parents meeting and distributed schedules. All parents should have received the schedule by email as well. Other notes:

- This is a continuation of the fall season and we hope to continue our success on the field.
- The coaching philosophy has not changed: we will focus on teaching the kids how to play the game and play it the right way, and will try to instill in them a love for soccer. This spring we will continue to focus on fundamentals, but will also emphasize spacing and positions, defense, and playing as a team.
- Your help is needed! We need parents to get more involved in the league and we also need more players to register. So talk to your friends about how much fun you had playing this year and encourage them to sign up for next year!
- We will continue to post pictures on the blog, so feel free to email or post on Facebook any photos you take.
- The league end of year picnic will be June 5 starting at noon, at Memorial Park.
