Here we go!

Big week ahead for the Storm!

Tonight we play Our Lady of Hope, 6pm at Christopher Morley Park Searingtown Rd in Roslyn, bring a chair to sit on. Hopefully it will cool down a little bit before 6.

The girls played extremely well and had a relatively easy time against this team last week. Tonight's game should not be taken lightly, it should be seen as an opportunity to work on the skills they've been learning in practice, to play team ball, get everyone involved and to really start running the plays to perfection. The girls still need to learn to challenge themselves regardless of who the opposition is.

Coach has called a special Tuesday night (6pm St Hyacinth's Gym) practice for a reason. We will meet St William, the best team we have played this summer, at St Hyacinth's Gym on Wednesday night to close out the summer season. The last game St William played was a loss to the Storm on July 22nd. This means that St William has had three weeks to prepare for Wednesday night's game against a team it would very much like to beat. That gives added significance to tonight's game as well as the Tuesday night practice. Our girls have worked very hard this summer. It would be a lot of fun for the girls to close out the summer season on Wednesday night with a bang!

Let's encourage our girls to play hard, play smart, use the plays and skills they have developed and most of all to have fun at tonight's game!
