HIRA BOYS PLAY AT TRAFALGAR PARK

TRAFALGAR STADIUM – 11^TH GRADE VS 12^TH GRADE

It was a chilly morning and our first soccer game of the season and there was the 11^th grade development coach watching us. After the game he had Steffan (our coach) that he would like Nathan and Wesley to go to the development practices. We did them every Tuesday for six weeks and we are still doing it.

On Monday, Queen’s Birthday weekend, our development squad played at Trafalgar Stadium against the 12^th grade team on full size pitches and goals. We had to be there at 10.30 am for our warm up. Then we went into the changing rooms and had a talk. Five minutes before the game, we lined up in the hall in our teams, with the referee in the middle with the match ball.  We jogged out to our sides.

We got kick off. We got the opening goal. A boy called Lochie got it. It was a moment of hope when we scored the first goal. Five minutes later they had put the ball into the net one all. We were pleased how we played but in the end they were a little bit stronger.  Final score 5-2.

PS Josh and Roderick were playing in the 12th Grade Team.
