Tonight the Green Machine took on Riptide for our third game of the indoor season. Mr. Andy Nock took over as coach for the night as my children had a Christmas program at their school this evening.
Boone’s mom emailed me with the information from the game. Below is a slightly edited version of that report.
The game started out slow as the Green Machine only had six players at the start – Boone, Curtis, Allie, Natalie, Kelsey and Alexis. We were down 3-0 but the team played tough without breaks and fought back and Jacob R. showed up and a few minutes later Jacob C. showed up and finally Richie. They played their hearts out and won the game 8-7. To say they were happy would be putting it mildly.
Tonight was definately a team effort, no one player played better , they all did their jobs and with some more practice I think they’ll continue to get stronger each week. Curtis and Jacob R. shared the goalie duties and played offense when not in goalie, Richie, Alexis, Kelsey and Allie played defense, and Natalie, Jacob C. and Boone played offense.
The breakdown of the goals was Natalie – 1, Jacob R. – 1, Jacob C. – 2, and Boone – 4.
Good job, Green Machine. I am proud of you.
We have practice on Tuesday night at 6:00 at Crown. Please make plans to be there if you can.
If any parents every have pictures from any of the games, I would love to be able to get copies of pictures so that I can post them up here on Soccer Scribbles. Feel free to email them to me at sansone @ hardingville.com (remove the spaces on both sides of the @ sigh).
Thank you Coach Andy for taking over tonight. Good job Coach Andy and the team
.
Coach Frank Sansone
