Camellia Cup 2008 Champions

Players,

I wanted to congratulate you for the rewards of your hard work. There were a lot of really good things that happened on the field this weekend and you should be proud. Everyone did their part and showed what it meant to be a team.

As the tournament progressed, I saw a lot more communication on the field between players which gave you more opportunities to move the ball and anticipate the next move. Your fitness level was better than the other teams and that definitely made a difference. What I appreciated most as a coach was your heart! Some of you wanted to die out there in the heat but kept going and giving more than you thought you had. Impressive girls!!

There are some things for us to work on and we will be introducing some new tactics for kick offs and set pieces. Just remember that there is tougher competition than what we saw this weekend and we need to continue to work hard at practice so that when you get on the field, all that hard work and effort will give you the outcome you want.

For now, enjoy your victory because you deserve it but be ready to get after it again during our practices.

Congratulations,

Coach Rich
