Focus on Under 9 White

The Under 9 White team trains together with our Under 9 Grey team, and both teams are coached by Rodney. U9s play 7-a-side football on smaller fields with modified rules. The White team consists of some players from last years U8s team, as well as some new players to the club.

Rodney's plan for this year is for the players to improve their soccer skills, develop their positional play, and improve their teamwork, with a view towards moving to the U10s and playing on the full field next season.  So far this season the Whites have had 4 wins and 4 losses and are enjoying their soccer.

Rodney has been associated with our club for several years, previously coaching one of our girls teams. His daughter Maddi coaches our U6s team and his daughter Lauren plays in our Ladies div 3 team, and Rodney himself plays in our Over 35 div 7 team. The whole family including Rodney's wife Corinne are committed volunteers at our club. Kyle's dad volunteers to referee most of the home games and Ian is the teams manager. We wish the U9 White team the best of luck for the rest of the 2011 season and look forward to them coming back as part of U10s team on the full field next year.

Look out for a Focus on the Under 9 Grey team coming soon!
