The team split into two smaller teams competing in two brackets; at the end, they faced each other in the Championship game making them both winners and and runner-up.

 Coach's Notes to Parents:

Coaching your kids from the sideline should not be done. here are some reasons/thoughts:

   (1) Soccer is a game where decisions are constantly made by players, allow them to be good decision makers.

   (2) You may be telling them something different than what the coach is telling them. It won't take long until they are frustrated with you, even though you are only trying to help.

Please be positive even when the officials appear to make the wrong calls, which will happen. Don't talk to other parent's kids nor kids on other teams. Understand that your daughter will not always play well and that's OK, more learning takes place when we are not successful. The best advice you can give is for her to do her best. If you have a problem, come to me as the coach first, don't let your daughter feel your anxiety; never vent in front of them. Relax and have fun with the experience.

I appreciate the support you have given to the program and me.
