Matches

So far, we have won all games except the ones against ISU which we lost without any goals of our own. This is because when playing against them, we are extremely nervous as a whole team as well as we don't have the same skill when it comes to working as a team. However, I believe with time and practice we could also start passing more to each other  in an organized way as well as cheer each other on whether we fail or succeed as the ISU team did. I find keeping up with the ISU players challenging as they are also fitter than us, clearly fitness being emphasized as part of their training. I believe we should also focus on it in order to strive as powerful players as a whole.

Training

Since the first week of September, I have participated in football training every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday unless there was a football match. During these training sessions, I learned the way my teammates communicate, their different and unique ways of playing as well as their weaknesses and how to work with it.
However, in terms of football skills myself, it has been a little challenging as I am not a strong football player. However, with extra practice at home I could improve. I think it would be great if we could as a team, meet up on weekends and practice outside school. This could be suggested, especially as the finals approach. I will suggest this to the coach and the team's  captain.
Until then!
