Thank you for all the parents that came and played soccer with us last Friday. It was a great game and good first test for our team. We will plan on having one more game with the parents at the end of the soccer season (in April). The final score for the game last Friday was 3 x 3 (Hernan, Peter and Huat Thart socred for the Ealges).
This weekend our soccer team will play in the "Copa das Nações" which is a tournament hosted by School of the Nations (located in Lago Sul). The games will be all day Saturday and perhaps one more game on Sunday morning. Please mark this on your calendars. I will be there at the school all day with the kids. Once we know the schedule of the exact times we will play our games I will let you know.
Important: In order to play in this tournament all players must wear shin guards! These are not very expansive. You may buy these at any mall or at the "feira", or you can borrow it from a friend. I would like for all our players to practice with shin guards this Thursday and Friday. So soccer players, bring your shin guards to school on those days.
Also the appropriate shoes to play on this field would be the "society cleats" (chuteira society). These are the cleats with the small spikes. It is very hard to play soccer in the grass with regular shoes, so if at all possible get some cleats.
Should you have any questions please contact me - coachbatista@gmail.com . Check the blog for more updates - www.coachbatista.blogspot.com .
Once I know the tournament schedule I'll forward it to all.
Thanks for your support and Go Eagles!
Coach Batista.
