My dd will take one week off to rest and then back at it to get ready for the second half of club soccer. So much soccer you don;t know what to do with all of it 
Are you referring to club teams playing this much in March?
I'm actually really surprised how quickly clubs are getting back to training after the HS season ends. With the exception of teams that made CIF playoffs, the season ended last week Thursday. Lots of club teams in the 2005 and older age groups are starting back with team practice this week.
My dd is a no this year for track. She would love to just run the 100m and the 100m relay and then go home. However, new coach has them running 2 miles a day and you have to run the 200 as well plus stay all Saturday to cheer the others on at meets that go from sunrise to sunset. Can't do all that, play high level soccer, get 4.0, study for SAT and go out and have fun with friends. I'm sure if she ran under 12 seconds coach would try and accommodate her wishesWe are taking this week off. Then a player meeting next Monday and will train 1x per week in February. Full ramp up in March. Lots of girls running HS track and lacrosse.
We got the wildcard win today 4-2. We'll see how the game against Sierra Canyon goes...Yes, too much soccer all crammed into a two months or three months. College is too much as well. If @RedCard young ladycats pull off wild card win and 1st round upset, they would be playing Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. That's insane and overkill. That's three games in 5 days. It's still fun for the girls and that's why some take that risk.
Very nice win. Good luck ThursdayWe got the wildcard win today 4-2. We'll see how the game against Sierra Canyon goes...
Winners get to keep playing like Laguna Beach does on Saturday because we beat Citrus Valley tonight. Laguna has ski week all next week bro and everyone is committed to give up skiing if we are so blessed to advance to Quarter Finals next Wednesday. Plus we won the coin flip and we get another home game against Palos Verdes in second round. Anyone here know much about PV that I can give to my dd? All I know is Bill Lamebeer played hoops there. Shout out to Citrus Valley High School out of Redlands. They came to play and were first to the ball in first half. Our girls were excited and a little too pumped if that makes any sense. Anyway, 2nd half we were lights out and got the goal. We played tough defense and we will look to upset #4 PV on Saturday. BTW, it seemed like the whole town came out to support us and Redlands traveled well. Band I hear will be there for Saturday. This was way more entertaining then I could have imagine. The girls and my dd had so much fun and it was well worth her bloody knees.Congrats to winners today. Your prize is that you get to play again on Saturday. Over what is a 4-day holiday weekend for most.
So lame.
Did your daughter get to play up on Varsity today?Santiago (Corona) skunked San Clemente 4-0. San Clemente held them scoreless for the first half, but then the floodgates opened, and they both looked like different teams in the second half.
No, we were just fans tonight.Did your daughter get to play up on Varsity today?
SC is good team, very nice win. CDM beat the Monarchs in OT. I was a little shocked. Upland has won every game and zero ties. I like Edison as my team to watch out for in D1 as well as SantiagoSantiago (Corona) skunked San Clemente 4-0.

PV is loaded with seniors has a few very good top end players. Defense is legit and their offense is built on the counter. They are a savvy physical team that plays more on the dirty side. Get ready for a rough game....girls will need to keep their composure.Winners get to keep playing like Laguna Beach does on Saturday because we beat Citrus Valley tonight.

Thanks for low down. Lamebeer went to school there so I was expecting some physical play from PV. NBA cleaned up the Bad Boy defense and now it's 3 point league. Hopefully everyone will play nice tomorrow nightPV is loaded with seniors has a few very good top end players. Defense is legit and their offense is built on the counter.

Don't count on it! Red cards seem to show up in their games more often than notThanks for low down. Lamebeer went to school there so I was expecting some physical play from PV. NBA cleaned up the Bad Boy defense and now it's 3 point league. Hopefully everyone will play nice tomorrow night![]()
Lot's of Yellow Cards at our game on Tuesday. Nothing dirty, just the South OC Beach Girls vs the IE Girls. I expect nothing less from the South Bay Girls. IE was tough as nails and brought Ganas. Let your PV friends know that we mean no harm when we host them. May the best team win tmrw. All we want is a hard fought game that is played with good, clean possession type soccer. Is that too much too ask? Btw, anyone know of something to cover up the knees for the "Turf Burns" besides band aids?Don't count on it! Red cards seem to show up in their games more often than not

Any video floating about? Would love to see it.Soccer can be cruel and ugly all in one game. No more hs soccer shout outs until next year folks. Time to rest for two weeks and get ready for second half ECNL. Not much to say about tonight without sounding like sour grapes and excuse making. Congrats to PV. We haven't faced opponent quite like them. I have to give the excuses to make my pride feel better. So, we had two starters out. That's right. At our small school that is not good. Our tough as nails holding mid and one of our tough and tall defenders. Then right before the half the ref missed a blatant hand ball. Is was so obvious, our poor players stopped playing but PV kept going. Cant stop until you hear the whistle. Ref said he was blocked and couldn't tell and side ref was picking his nose and looking somewhere else then the field of play. Then with a minute left in half they ran through one of our many freshman on our team and she broke her wrist. Then in 2nd half another player injured and taken off the field. We still needed a goal to tie but they got the next one instead off of a throw corner kick type play that no one touched but somehow the ref allowed. I spoke to our GK and she said PV has screening plays and she was blocked out. Video replay shows ball go all the way into net with no one touching it. My dd ran to ref and he told her to shut up and be respectful. Our team tried and will look to win it all next year. Hopefully PV makes a deep run and moves up to D2. Not our style of how to play soccer but they won fair and square. Good luck to all the teams left in CIF![]()
