Team Gold Week 3...Undefeated!

soccerballsoccerballsoccerball
A team that is yet to lose is what? Unde-fing-feated. That is how Team Gold is rolling.
3 games, 2 wins, one tie.
Last night was a full TG squad and it was awesome to behold.
Team Kelly Green was a fine group who were just over whelmed by our girls and there's no shame in that.
In the first half it was clear Gold came to play and by the 30 minute mark we'd built a nice 6-1 lead.
Gabs, Claire, Carly, Taylor, Rhianna and Hillary Hoole popped in some dandys and we were well ahead.
In half two, Kelly Greens star player, (my pal Hicksie's kid) Brooke came out of net and led a KG comeback.
Alas it was too late. (Yes I said alas.) In the end Team Gold prevailed 8-5 and so far have yet to taste bitter defeat.(Like Coach Ed and Rob have!)

Game Notes:
-Coach Marc chastised me for fraternizing with the other coaches while he did all the work. Sheesh what a keener.
-I forgot the team balls and goalie sweater so we had to borrow them. This is lame because besides opening and closing the gate, the balls and sweater comprise 2/3s of my coaching duties.
-All the girls played well but Marc and I were particularly impressed by Tori whose never played any organized soccer and has done very nicely on a team that's got a lot of talent. She also took a ball in the melon in week one and got a bleeding beak and never made a fuss about it.
-Also my kid Charlie G is scoreless so far despite having 900 shots on goal last night.
