U9s Mixed Rd2 Match Report…

Round 2 vs Upper FTG

Coming off the back of a great first match for the season, we were up against Upper Ferntree Gully at Dobson Park.  Friday’s training session focused on attacking the ball, teaching the players possession and support as principles of attack.

Upper Ferntree Gully were a player or two short and we optioned to provide one of our players to play a quarter for UFTG to limit children on the bench.  Four players (Sebastion. Jackson H, Tyson and Dustin) volunteered for the task, flipped their jumpers and played a great game against Bayswater for their quarters.

All kids had a turn around for attacking the ball, and it was a close match all round.  Lots of smiles, passing the footy and plenty of goals.  On game day, all players are really starting to come together as a group (or two due to 9v9).

Next round Anzac Day, which will be exciting for all.
