u13 Gold season review

4th place... we certainly set our sights a bit higher and the season started off on a good note and ended on a strong pace which is helping us now in District Cup play. Somewhere inbetween the usual series of events (illness, inconsistent scoring etc) cost us from finishing in the top 3. But the coaching staff is very proud of your efforts. Many of you played A LOT OF SOCCER this year, starting with the trip to Italy, the extra development and exhibitions. You came to all the sessions with enthusiasim and a desire to turn up the cylinders! Grazie!

A word of thanks to Yosu for taking on a lot of your practices this season. Yosu brings many years of experience which benefited each of you immensely!! We hope he will be back with us next season as well!

Our season is not over yet! We have Cup Play, GHSA and the Summer Tournament. We will also start building our u14 Gold team soon with assessments and summer training sessions! We hope you will all be back and re-register! The 2009/2010 registration form is now available!

Stay tuned for additional information.

Now go out there and win a CUP for yourselves and the Club! Congratulations on a great season (so far)!

Shutout!

here's hoping....

great result in Cowichan! Now who do we play on March 28th?

...on a long three week Cup Run!

GHSA Tourney Schedule

Our April 3-5th tourney schedule is starting to take shape, depending on how far we go in district cup it may be 'fine tuned'... keep an eye on the LINK

as you can see we expect some GOOD competition! lets see how you do against a u14 and a Metro team!

LAKEHILL Lakehill Dragons U13 Boys Gold

-v- BU StrikersU13 Gold 4/3/2009 7:35 PM UVIC 2B field
-v- PCSC Poco United U14 Gold 4/4/2009 9:45 AM Tyndall Turf field
-v- KSC Kerrisdale WarriorsU13 Gold 4/4/2009 2:45 PM UVIC 2A field
-v- NCUS Lightning U13 Metro 4/5/2009 12:15PM UVIC 2A field

Tevez?

well, I don't think CarlosT is a '96 but if he has a relative who wants to live in the Lakehill Catchment for the u14 season, maybe as an exchange student? I am sure Mario and the Dragons can use an extra striker or two for next season....

Pure Entertainment...

A good game on a sunny (but cold) day is always a delight to watch and Sunday's exhibition vs Calgary Foothills u14Gold Girls was just that... fun to watch! The guys (+Emily) where in command of the game from the get-go however that does not mean they where not challenged! Calgary has a number of provincal class players in their lineup, especially Nr 21 and Nr 20! Just ask Mitch, he probably still has a uniroyal pattern running down his back as #21- decided the quickest path to the ball was to run a straight line OVER Mitch! Bodies did fly and often it was the guys! Aidens brother scored a Beckham-like spot kick from 30 yards to the upper post corner...amazing accuracy! Emily worked hard and set up one (maybe 2?) of the Dragons' three goals. Even our keeper took a turn as striker and despite a break-away was thwarted by the CFFC keeper! Lots of good play from Liam, Matteo, Justin, our #6 :), Jaxion and Dexter to name just a few of the boys who took their energy up a level against the quick paced CFFC team!
Thanks to both teams for an entertaining game!

good game!

1 - 3

Good effort today Dragons! Rest up for Sunday's exhibition!

big test on saturday...

hope you all have been studying hard! Your teachers (er: Coaches), Yosu, Mario, Dave have been really pleased with the last two games. Our season is not completely over.. the standings won't change... but we are working towards two huge tournaments this year, the Gordon Head one will be a great test before the summer tourney for the travelling team!

So come to Braefoot Park 'sand trap' this Saturday at 10:15 to prepare for the big test vs JdF!

PS: District Cup starts March 15th.. our chance to shine!

next game....

Quote of the week.....

Fans were surprised when health and safety chiefs put up signs at Southampton's FA Cup clash with Manchester United warning of "flying footballs". One Saints fan said: "The number of shots we've had this season, I don't think there's much danger of being hit by any of our players."

Indoor Tourney resume.....

Congratulations to the Dragons who participated in the weekend BaysU indoor tournament! You all got lots of touches on the ball and a lot of goals were scored (at both ends of the field! ;)

What we saw was a very different game from outdoor soccer.. in the end neither the Dragons or the Lakers were a match for the DDC collection! My observation was that you started every game well and usually got ahead but could not sustain the pressure. Unfortunately I missed the 4th game vs PLSC where a total of 11 goals were scored in what was described to be a thrilling game! In the final as expected the DDC team walloped their opposition.

On the girls side the CB team with guest Monique from our Lakehill Reds u13 team went undefeated with a convincing win in the Championship game over Gorge that saw two goals from CB Goalies scored against their opponents!

Two other lakehill teams made the finals and won!!! The u15Gold Girls and the u16 Gold Boys (the boys went undefeated in their division)!!

Back to training tonight at UVIC to prepare for our final few games then we are registered to play in the annual GHSA Tournament in April so lots of soccer remaining on this season!

Happy Holidays!

We hope everyone is having a great Holiday season and keeping fit (Shovelling their neighbours driveways, side streets etc). Braefoot Park is still under snow so we are hoping for a quick melt!

We wish everyone a great start to 2009!
