Big day today at the Inter-regional Tournament. The girls had 2 games to deal with today. Fortunately, the weatherman cooperated and gave the girls cool windy weather for the afternoon game against the team from Utah. Game one in the books with a win. The girls played really well and seemed to have a lot of fun in doing so.
The evening game featured our West Coast Girls against the host club SC Blues. Without getting too deep into this, the Blue are a very popular club, even though that Highlighter Yellow is rather gross. However, I guess with popularity, especially in Southern California, come a bit of arrogance. Not the players, they are confident, and deservedly so, some of the parents I could do without. The coaching brothers, well, lets say I wasn't the biggest fans of going into the game. But after the game watching the U11 Blues Girls, a group of amazing young ladies, who just played their rivals to an incredible 0-0 tie, walking off the field after the "pep talk" from their coach crying their eyes out. Well that just down right pissed, this 22 year ex-coach, off.
Kudos to all the girls for playing their hearts out in this tournement. Yes especially Kudo's to our Toni who did leave up to her nickname....The Beast. She was on fire against the Blues.
But the picture of the day, submitted by Jamie has to go to the true nature of the girls on our team, who as much as they love the game and bust their butts on the field, at the end of the day, they would rather be giggly 11 year olds.
