Another Awesome Win!

What a season it's shaping up to be so far.  Tonight we played the Xtreme team at the East Center.  It was a GREAT match and our girls really brought an ACES game tonight winning handily 5-1.  We stood our ground, made some awesome plays and scored some VERY sweet goals.

So far that makes our record 6-0 including the pre-season tournament.   Our team is getting better and better each and every week.  We are only a couple months into our first year in the U16 age group and we are rocking out the excellent games!

Good work to the girls and many thanks to the parents tonight for the super support!

Way to go team!

Team Laser Tag Night

Tag you're Zapped!   This was the theme the boys felt when the girls team completely owned the 99 Selects FC Boys team in laser tag.   Boys team 5000 points......  Girls Team a WHOPPING 8000+ points!   Way to go girls!  (Ok that's all the rubbing in we will do in this post....  LOL)

This years Halloween party was at Laser Quest with the Selects FC 99 Boys team.  Both teams had a great time playing a couple fun games of laser tag.  Lots of laughs and lots of glowing hair spray in our teams hair!

After Laser Tag we went to a Haunted House in South Edmonton run by one of the boys parents place.  The girls got the proverbial "poop" scared out of them and everyone had a great time.

Thanks to Jim and his team for joining us on this very awesome night!

Canada VS North Korea Game

Tonight our team attended the Canada VS Korea soccer game at Commonwealth Stadium.   The Game was really great with fantastic weather for Oct 30th!!

I was really awesome to see so many players and parents at the game tonight.  Everyone had a great time cheering on the women's team to a 3-0 victory over Korea.  GO CANADA!

Thanks to Kim Kramer for helping to organize this event.

Update on Savannah

We have now heard from Savannah's Parents about her injury.  The report is no bone or other permanent damage that they can see right now.  This does not mean she is out of the woods just yet as she is VERY bruised and cannot walk properly right now.  Time will also tell if there is any soft tissue damage.

We are all praying for you Savannah. Get well soon!

First Regular Season Game VS SG Saints

Whenever we start a new season in a new age group we often wonder how we will do in the season.  This Indoor season has the EMSA Premier A and Premier B leagues combined in one league so that team get to play many other teams in a larger pool. As the younger Selects FC team in U16 Premier we are automatically put into the B pool and the older team into the A pool.

Of course as luck would have it the first team we get to play is the SG Saints in the A pool.  You may remember that this was the team we played in an early season exhibition game over a month ago.  Last month we were shaking off cobwebs and the other team really took the game to us.   This time around was a different story!

The game was simply beautiful.  Our team was firing on all cylinders tonight and man did it show!  It was also obvious that the work we have done in the past 4 weeks since meeting that team before has paid off in abundance.  We controlled almost every aspect of the game tonight and won handily with a stunning 6-0 victory!

Spruce Grove did not give up throughout the game and our many thanks for playing us with a quality and clean game.

We have always had a good relationship with Spruce Grove teams and we know it going to be a harder game next time we meet.  ;)


What tonight's result shows is that our team is CLEARLY competitive in the U16 age group and the win of this type is a testament to the hard work and dedication everyone on the team has towards the game we love.

As with any good game the pace is fast and furious.  Unfortunately during one of the drives on their net Savannah got hurt just above her shin pad and has be taken to hospital.  Once we have an update on her status we will let everyone know.

We are off to an excellent start to the season ladies, keep up the fantastic work!

Midnight Madness Game VS Ridgewood Titans

Today's game was the best by far for our team play.  It was a good game where our team decided to really turn on the co-operative and competitive play and it showed from start to finish.

The plays the girls are starting to put together, the creative game logic, co-operative play, aggression and everything else they need to win a game was firing on all cylinders.  Ridgewood gave the best fight they could but our team clearly dominated the entire game.

The Ridgewood goal keeper in that game did an excellent job against us and you have earned our respect.  Our girls threw everything except for the kitchen sink at this keeper.  Good job to you, keep up the good work.

The game ended with a solid 6-0 victory for us, Brynn's first shutout of the season and the gold medal! Ridgewood should be proud of the Silver they earned and we are very happy for Kristina and Sam who are now on that team.  We know that they will continue to improve with that team and by working with us on a regular basis.

Mill Woods Soccer has some pride today with this tournament as two MWSA teams from our zone took Gold and Silver in this tournament pool.

Good job to everyone on both teams. Let's all have a FANTASTIC regular season!

Midnight Madness Game VS Fort Sask

Today we played a Fort Saskatchewan Community League team in the tournament.  This team was a pretty good team and fought as best they could.  They know that going into this tournament that they would come up against some more experienced teams.  We won the game 5-1 easily.   It was another good game for our team to continue to the put our plays and strategy together in a game situation.

Thanks to the Fort Sask team for playing up in the tournament.  We know you will have a good season in your own league and good job  for trying something different.
