First summer season game

Last night we had our first game for the Summer Season. Ok, so technically it was the second scheduled game but that one got rained out and this was the first game we actually played. It was one of those evenings when you think it is going to rain but it never does (for which we all were very grateful). 9 Femmes, 7 regulars and 2 Summer honorary Femmes, showed up ready play. Our opponents only had 5 players at the start of the game and a 6th who showed up halfway through the first half but at least they did not forfeit. For being our very first game on a small field we did really well and the two new peeps fit in very well. Without bragging, we had complete control of the game and our goalies (Wanda in the first half and Katie in the second - THANK YOU LADIES!!!) did not see a lot of action. We had a fair number of chances to score and did so quite early in the first half (our second attack or so). This pressure continued but I think we all need to "re-aim" to take into consideration the smaller size of the goals compared to the regular season goals :). In the second half we kept on playing and also scored a second goal.

All in all, we did really well and it looks like this Summer season will be better than last years (ok, so that's not that hard but still.....).

The post-game beer event was only attended by Mary, Schehe and the kids, and Annika (beer good!). Next week we may be looking forward to a pool session at the Rehman residence so ya'll should be there!!!!

Until next week!
