I would highly encourage the girls to watch as many matches as possible to continue to observe and learn the flow of the game.


Soccer Training Videos:
The offseason period is a great time to work on soccer skills and to assist with that we will be posting training videos and this week we have one entitled "3 Moves to Beat a Defender".  Watch the videos and then go out and practice and refine your technique.  The videos are put together by an outfit called Epic Sports.  They have a website that you can visit as well.

Once there, here are some selected examples of tweets over the past week. Hope you find something that inspires you here:

Wake up with DETERMINATION. Go to bed with SATISFACTION.

Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself.

Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.

No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave. -Calvin Coolidige

It's amazing what happens when you just won't give up.
