Tough thought draw for Black
A tough challenge for the first game of the second phase. Last time these teams met it was a tight 1-1 draw and this game was no different.
We started with Mitchell P and Ricky F as our defensive partnership and Joe R as our sitting mid-fielder. It was a tight opening first quarter but on 12 mins we were awarded a free kick on the edge of the box and Nathan B stepped up and executed a strike into the top right hand corner. Another unstoppable free kick! Our tracking back was much better today but a little lapse albeit a good passing move from SA found us going in 1-1 at the break. Loads of chances in the second half with Nathan, Ricky, Joe, Faith, Mitch, Nathan W, Double J and Hayden all going close but their goal keeper was having a good day. On 40 mins as superb tackle from Faith M clearly wining the ball was unbelievable judged to be a foul. Then SA was given a penalty but justice was done when the Under14 German !! saved his second penalty in a row. A fantastic save from Coby M.
We failed to press in our box when SA attacked which found us going into the last 5 mins 2-1 down. We piled on the pressure with time running out Coby M was sent up for 2 corners to create a bit of havoc in their box and its worked. SA failed to clear and the first time Mitch who had been disciplined throughout in his defensive role ventured forward, Nathan B found him in a bit of space & Mitch slotted in to save the game!
It was a well earned draw. Everyone put in a shift in blue & black especially Mitch P who was the much deserved Player of the Match. Their manager kindly commented at the end of the game "we were a very good footballing team".
Goals: Nathan Blake (Free kick), Mitchell P
Assists: Nathan B
Captain: Ricky F and Mitchell P (Defence)
Man of Match - Mitchell P

INJURY PREVENTION AND EXERCISES FROM FOOTBALLS WORLD BODY
I always try to read as much as possible my sport interest go,s far beyond football and completing over 35 long distant multi sport events from sprint triathlon to Ironman and 18 months training in an martial art called Krav Maga brings with it experience and knowledge of other training regimes and different training methods most ill leave for when kids are more mature and when there aerobic system is more advanced 14 they tell me . But I still don't think its to early to sow seeds at a younger age habits form a great base to start from and the earlier kids realise the importance the core muscles play in injury prevention the better in my opinion . Heres fifa,s take on research and some exercises

As a coach its vital to have an open mind or Growth mindset
As a coach its vital to have an open mind or Growth mindset, to borrow from Dweck. Don’t get stuck in your ways or a routine. Stay fresh, open to new ideas and what other people can teach you. If your going to your session and just going through the motions, then that's a problem.
