TC Strikers 4 TC Earthquakes 0
Way to bounce back from the last game girls! Our defense played a really sound game and cleared effectively to the outside where the wings could get the ball. Everyone seemed to play their position and stayed away from each other for the most part which was awesome. We got called for being offsides three or four times, but us coaches would rather see that than four of you clumped together in the middle of the field. We advanced the ball effectively up the sides while on the attack and we had several really nice long passes through their back line that our forwards were able to run onto. We got aggressive and took it to them. I hope you girls enjoyed that game and will carry it forward to the next game. We have yet to win two games back-to-back so hopefully we can accomplish that on Tuesday.

Game 7
"Pink Ninjas" 3 TC Strikers 0
We were soundly defeated and outclassed in this game. The Ninjas worked great as a team and moved the ball around and applied pressure as soon as we took possession. I believe we only created two chances the entire game and our defense was on their heels the entire time. Not pretty! However, it provided an opportunity to learn what it takes to beat a good team. We have to bring effort to every game if we are to be successful. Perhaps we will be afforded a second game against them in the playoffs to see if we have improved.

Game 6
TC Strikers 3 SC Hurricanes 0
Good game girls! I made you dribble before you could pass and it paid dividends. We broke down the defense and it opened up passing lanes. The forwards and midfielders made some very nice passes and crosses which resulted in chances. That is all we can ask for. Hopefully, somebody will put it in the net. Congrats to Lynn, Jane, and Ellie for scoring goals.
