Things are starting to get harder and harder. Our strength coach tells us that if we are able to work for each other in the weight room then we will be able to work for each other on the field. At this time with having a young team it is nice to see that we are willing to go the extra mile for each other.
For all the young players I hope you are working the extra for yourself and for one another. Everything you do now as a player on the field will determine how you will be on the field later. This is a lesson I have learned while playing for Poway many times. Also for those players that are reading this thank your parents for all they do in your life. You have no idea the sacrifices they make in their lives to allow you to play soccer. I did not realize the sacrifices my parents made for me until I was about 17. So thank them for that.
Take care everyone hope school and soccer is going well for everyone.
