years) against Clinton and Wingham.
Each town fielded two teams;
over a three-week period they
played six games of very exciting
soccer.
Although the players could tell
the score of each game, the coaches
were more interested in the skills
learned, playing as a team, and
playing proper positions. The
games proved to be well matched
and a highlight for older players.
The season included a tournament
in Wingham on a warm Saturday in
July, again for the seven to eight
year-olds. Blyth's two teams, Blyth
Yellow and Blyth Blue, played
very competitive soccer. Their
skills and teamwork helped them
play as well as they did.
Each team played three games.
Blyth Yellow played games against
two different Lucknow teams and
Clinton. Blyth Blue played their
games against three different
Wingham teams.
Game stars for the tournament
were Ben Walsh, Blyth Yellow and
goalie Derek Youngblut, Blyth
Blue. They were chosen by the
coaches for the opposing teams.
Each player received a memento
for participating and had a chance
to win one of the many donated
shirts, hats, food vouchers and
soccer balls that were drawn for. A
great day for all! The season ended
with players divided by ages, to
play three crosswise games on he
field against moms and dads. This
is a much anticipated part of the
season, both by player and parent.
Congratulations to all players
who scored goals this soccer
season. What a great feeling!
Congratulations to all team
players who set up those goals.
Players have to work together.
Thank you Steven VanAmers-
foort for helping to coach and
referee each week. Lastly, thank
you to all the adults who came each
week to help and show their
support for the son/daughter as they
played soccer Monday nights at
6:15.
