PT Cup Championship

This weekend was more about JM testing his own players rather than winning what was essentially a 3 team friendly. Most of these players were taking the field together for the first time.  Knowing JM (the coach), this group will only get better as they learn his system.
There was some good soccer played by all three teams. Lots to be proud of. And all 3 coaches saw plenty of things to go back and work on from their teams.
Good weekend by all the DD's

I like your phrase "kick tested".

Congrats to Sting for their tournament win. I don't care if they used LA, Solar players. For all I know they are now Sting players.  This is academy and things change all the time.  

As for my teams, I'm very proud of the way my teams competed this weekend.  

Kicks JM played well and has a lot of potential.  This group looks like it will be a fun team to coach. This was first time I was able to see 3 new players play in a game.  Kicks JM is not a top team.  We just want to compete against the best teams to get better.

Kicks Selecao played up in 11v11 and lost 2-1 in the final to Texans South.  I will play top 05 teams every weekend if I could but I prefer smaller field.  Playing 3 11v11 games in a 5 hour time span was brutal on Saturday.  My 06s have a lot of heart and never complain. They play hard ALL the time.
