ball hold improve increase learn minute playing soccer string style trying
We are trying to improve as individuals and as a team. We have had some 5-10 minute spurts where we have been playing well, but we have not been able to string them together. With our style of play, we want to hold on to the ball longer. We have been trying to increase our soccer knowledge, where we can learn what we need to do to make the adjustments on the field.
fact indoors kids kinda loud loudest people played sell
We sell the fact that it's the Loud House. It's 50,000 people but when that place is full, it's the loudest place in the country. I think it's a novelty, more kids haven't played indoors and they kinda like that.

We just played bigger people the last two games. We're not going to play 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10 Thursday. I think we should be all right.

arena building deep forward held improved last league loaded looking market month open players protect quality scratch solid starting talent teams top
We have been looking forward to this day. The talent in the AFL has improved dramatically from my first years in the league where now teams are deep enough that they can't protect everyone. On top of that, the free-agent market is loaded with players that have solid arena experience. We just held our first open tryout last month and hosted over 200 quality players. This is going to be fun, starting from scratch and building a competitive team.
advantage biggest distracted drive gotten home huge maybe playing whatever
I don't feel like we have this big huge advantage at home. I feel a little more distracted at home for whatever reason. Maybe we've gotten used to playing on the road. The biggest difference, for me is that I'm not going to have a very long drive home after the game.
bet football percent played players relative
I'd bet more than 50 percent of our players have a relative who played football here.
dictated knew nine players ready top
Basically, when you play the top teams, you need nine players ready to go. We knew that going in, but it was unfortunate that the fouls dictated the game.
changes flow incredible last player strong
She's always been an incredible shooter, but the last two years she has become a very strong defender. She is not a one-dimensional player by any means. When she is making baskets like (she did this week), it changes the whole flow of the game.
