This weekend Ivy's team had no league game and so we had a friendly with a team from the next county over. Now this season the girls have had a great season and we don't want to take that away from them, but as it's gone on they have been challenged less and less and as we feared complacency has started to set in as they believe they can beat anyone without much effort. Well yesterday they got found out and to be fair a by the second half a few of the girls stepped it up and went for it like we know they can. One of those who stepped up was Ivy. After the shots started coming thick and fast and their striker was following up for a rebound she realised she needed to own her box again. It was the most vocal we have seen her. (Some who have seen past post will know it's something we have worked on). She was coming for the ball and distributing it as quickly and calmly as she could. In the end they lost 5-0 but it was a big lesson learned for the girls but without Ivy having arguably her best overall game it would have been double and more she came away with the player of the game again. As a team thought they all came off smiling and wanting to play them again because at the end of it all they love the challenge and for me that was the big win.

As you know I love all things creative. @Ray Newland hears are my first designs for the world cup gloves.. 2 new design added in the comments
