The U8 Sharks looked much more relaxed this time around playing in the 3v3 Live Regionals. The fields were beautiful and the weather was great. The Sharks came out and played with the confidence and intensity we expect from them. So, all in all it was a great weekend of soccer. We had plenty of time between games to get some very good practice in so that was a nice bonus. And of course the kids had a good time just hanging out with each other between games.
On Saturday we played the Norwin, PA Rowdies three times and they were all good games with the Sharks usually dominating the ball. However the Rowdies came out on top in two of those games. For the weekend Sam E. was our leading scorer but Sam A. got a goal in too, as did Jackson and Austin.
On Sunday we played the Rowdies again, this time to a 4-4 tie and then also played a couple of older teams. In those games the Sharks played with lots of energy and were never backing down from the bigger kids. That last game was really a good one. All in all I was really happy with the way they played and the experience they're getting is invaluable. Even though we took 2nd place in the U6 division with the Rowdies we managed 3rd place on Sunday in the U7 group as we beat out the Rowdies on goal differential. Great tourney Sharks!
