| Saugus, Ca - Dreams do come
true! As you click on the news pages of this site, you will see the
Hot Shots! went undefeated this past spring.
Every coach would love to win every game,
what a dream... To have 11 kids come together and take control of the
field... wake-up coach!... I am awake... A dream come true!
Each player's skills complemented the
other's. Awesome soccer every single game. The knowledge of
soccer was a plus, but it was the attitude that kept this strong team
together. Their spirit was never broke. As the team was down a goal
or two here and there, it just made them stronger... their spirit for the
game was the key to winning.
The side-lines were packed every Saturday,
cheering the team on to victory after victory, the parents were just as
much a part of the team.
Each player should remember this season
forever, but what if your first season of soccer ever, was an undefeated
one? We had 2 first timers on the team, and one who had only played
one fall season.
Eleven players on the team, eleven players
scoring goals. That's right, everyone on the team scored at least
one goal during the season. "Hey, what is my daughter doing up there? she
is a defender!" came from one of the parents. I could only reply with, "I
know, and my sweeper is a striker!"
The team scored a total of 60 goals, and
only 12 scored against them, in 8 games, totaling an average of 7.5 goals
scored per game, and 1.5 scored against them.
What a team and what a season!
I wish all of the players great success at
what ever they do, and all I can ask them to do is, remember these words..
"Control Gets The Goal!" |
