Coach's Corner...

...the day after a humbling 5-0 defeat by Holland Christian. Girls, continue to VISUALIZE success....but in the future, BELIEVE what you're seeing and PRACTICE it often. I don't think we were all truly confident last night with the idea that we COULD and WOULD beat H.C., and it showed in our sub-par performance. It's not enough to simply visualize...we have to complete the equation and go out and compete! Remember this all for the next games!

Please remember to have the permission slip read, signed (by a parent) and delivered to me ASAP. Lookin' forward to it!

Morgan's VISUALIZATION quotation...

Visualize your responsibilities and your responsibilities will be successful.
-Morgan Stillson

Girls, please respond to Morgan's thoughts no later than this Friday at 730 AM.

Congrats...

...to Monica for her stellar physical and mental performance today at practice. She will be the honorary captain for the H.C. game tomorrow (wed.). And in a close second place, Morgan deserves recognition for her stepped-up play. Keep it up, girls!

I forgot to mention this today at practice too, girls. PLEASE take care of your bodies tonight and tomorrow on your day off in preparation for the big game. That means do as much as you can to keep a normal sleeping, eating, and drinking routine. Sleeping in too long and laying around all day will lead to a lazy, groggy performance. PREPARE YOURSELVES FOR SUCCESS AND VISUALIZE IT!

Beat H.C.

Coach's Corner...

...after a record-setting 7-0 win vs. Rogers today. First, great job, girls, in setting the official bar for success at the JV girls soccer level. You are all now officially a part of first winning JV program in Hamilton's short girls soccer history. And with a great offensive effort today, the sky's the limit for the rest of the season. Be aware though that the road gets much tougher in the near future, beginning with a very good Holland Christian squad this Wednesday. So, celebrate the effort today but get ready to work even harder from here on out!
