Well are are getting close to our first tournament and things are starting to click into place.  It doesn’t really help that we have a couple girls out still on vacation.

Now we just need to focus more on strategy and playing on the field that way we can be one complete team.

This last weekend we had a pretty good practice before the heat started taking over since it’s been so hot!!!
We were able to work on some agility drills and then we split the offense and defense up to work on more individualized drills for that specific area.

Tonight we will see what we can really do since it’s supposed to reach 106 today.

Our soccer team is moving forward after a long training streak.  This week we have finally got our team registered and then today we have applied and registered for our first two tournaments.

Basically we have until August 15th to get this team of 13 ready (maybe 14) for there first shot at competitive soccer.  We are participating in a tournament in Fort Worth that weekend, and they will probably get 3 games on Saturday alone.  I guess it just depends on the number of teams.  Then labor day weekend the team is going to head south a few hours down to Austin, TX.  This should be a fun tournament as this will be right before league play starts and we are not playing at home!  lol   It should be a lot of fun..

League play starts 1 or 2 weeks after that till early December.  So the season is starting after 9 months of hard training.

When sports teams have opening nights, or inaugural seasons, they always give things away. They like to get a good fan base and keep them coming back over and over again. I remember going to sporting events growing up and we would get cool things like hats, balls, bats, soccer balls, etc. It was so much fun and dad would always find other games so I could get free things.

Well a new team is coming to Grand Prairie and they want to get a huge fan base and they are giving away something I have never, ever seen given away before. The Grand Prairie AirHogs Baseball team is going to give away a funeral at it’s June 3rd game. Complete with a casket, headstone, services and a plot. You can be buried or cremated, your choice.

So if you live in the area and want to take a shot and winning your on funeral, good luck and don’t have a heart attack over winning it!!!
