Wow! What a great season we had this Fall. The team has really advanced itself on basic skills. Our passing was very good, we maintained control of the middle third, our defenders kept pushing our opponent's attack to the outside, and our forward play was fast and crisp.
Great skills lead to great play on the field. Great play on the field leads to more scoring opportunities, and we had our fair share, no doubt. Our goal production was outstanding (37 goals) and our defense was equally outstanding (allowed only 9 goals, or just over 1 per game). Even when you take out the over matched game near the beginning of the season where we scored 13 goals, we still had a 3 goal per game average and that is a sign we are all doing the right things.
And just as great skills lead to great play, it also leads to a strong record. We finished the season with 19 points (6-1-1), which is the highest we've ever had. We really played together like a team, where everyone contributed their best all the time.
It was a great pleasure to be coaching the boys, and I look forward to starting up practice again in January. Great job everyone.
