Sep 082011
 

The U12 Girls Blue team represented the Capital City Streaks at the prestigious Atlanta Cup tournament September 2 -5. An exciting 3-1 win against MidSouth Futbol Club 2000 Girls from Memphis got the tournament off to a good start. Our 2000 Girls Blue team followed up with a 6-2 win Saturday afternoon against the Roswell Santos 00 Red from Roswell, Georgia, to cap off a successful day.

Sunday’s challenge, also from the Atlanta area, was Concorde Fire Central White. The game ended in a 2-2 tie, but because  of their dominance in the early rounds CCS qualified as the first place finisher in their bracket giving them a spot in the Semi-Final round on Sunday afternoon where they again met and this time defeated the Concorde Fire White with a tight 1-0 final score.

Despite the rainy weather, the team was cheerful and upbeat as they entered the championship game Monday against the Augusta Arsenal Gunners 00 from Augusta, Georgia. Their spirit could not be dampened. Regulation play ended with no score. The AASC Gunners came out on top with a goal scored in the last five seconds of the second half of overtime play.

Scoring the weekend goals for CCS were Maylon Davis, Haley Jolly, Tara Katz, Mary Martin Mooneyham, and Hayden Tipton.  Goalkeepers throughout the weekend were Mallory Houlditch, Bea Richardson, Hayden Tipton, and Mary Stuart Tipton. 

During the awards presentation, Coach Jodie Smith told the team …”you go as a team to tournaments to challenge yourselves against good competition.  And I think we accomplished quite a lot over the weekend.  Be disappointed, but be proud of how well you did this weekend, because I am very proud of you all”.  The girls demonstrated teamwork, adaptability, and a determined spirit showing that they never give up. 

Congratulations to the CCS00G Blue, Finalist in the Atlanta Cup!

Capital City Streaks U9 Boys-Thunder Road Classic Champions!

Aug 262011
 

The Montgomery YMCA Capital City Streaks U9 boys earned the Championship trophy at the Thunder Road Classic in Auburn, Alabama, August 20-21, 2011.  

The tournament opened on Saturday morning with a two hour lightning delay.  The boys did not let this get them down as they opened the tournament with a 16-1 win over the EFC Patriots.  Saturday night the Streaks posted another victory with a score of 5-0 over the Auburn Thunder ’03 boys.  This win placed them in 1st place in pool play and allowed them to play in the Semi-Final Match on Sunday Morning.

In the semi-final match the boys got off to a great start and had a 5-0 win over the ‘02B Storm.  The Championship game followed and it was the closest game of the tournament for the boys.  They pulled out a 3-2 victory over the Alex City Fire ’02 and the Capital City Streaks U9 Boys were crowned tournament champions!

The team showed excellent teamwork throughout the tournament and there was plenty of player rotation throughout the tournament.  Almost every player was had an opportunity to score.  Their defense and goalkeeping held strong when it needed to and allowed the offense to run down the field and score.

This is the first tournament win for this young team with only 3 veterans.  We are so very proud of our U9 boys and our wonderful coaches; Robbie Farquhar and Henrique Rizzo.  We are looking forward to a great season and strong finishes during the remainder of our tournaments this season.
