an essay."
“Come on you guys let’s go!” Brian screamed as Joe
Hartung took it up the field. When Joe charges
down field he gets approached by the right wing defender and dominates him with
a croave to take it to the top of the 18. You can hear the opponents’ coach
screaming and shouting for the defenders to drop, but it is too late. Joe
dishes it to Brandon who strikes it right to the back of the net. “Yeah! Way to
go,” our coach screams just as the opponent takes the kick off. Now do we play
for the win… or the tie?
5-1-2.
Is this a good enough record for you? Well for my team, Pewaukee Sussex United
this is still not good enough. As the year has progressed we have improved
individually and as a team. We will also have to make tough decisions that we
make as a team, like moving up to Premier or staying down in 1st
division, to our coach making decisions about who plays where. Overall the
biggest decision we have to make is either going up a level or staying where we
are and win our division.
With
this decision that we are going to have to make a lot will come after it. For
example if we are to stay down in 1st division we will still need to
have the same amount of practices a week which will keep our skill up. Also we
will still have the same amount of games that we had this season. The teams
that we will play though will not be as advanced as the Premier teams we would
play if we move up. Tournaments we will enter in will have more competition than
usual because we still need a tough challenge every once and a while. 1st
division will also give us many opportunities that we would not have if we move
up to Premier. Our team will be able to travel in state and out of state to
tournaments that we will not be eligible to enter in Premier. In state we would
be able to go to Appleton for the state cup and for out of state we would be
able to go to Kansas city for the President’s Cup which is only for 1st
division teams. Finally if we stay in 1st division our coach is
going to set us one goal and one goal only: to win the division.
On
the other hand if we would move up to Premier there would be many differences
from this year. This means that at practice we need to improve many things like
first touch because if that doesn’t improve we would look as dumb as a football
player trying to play soccer. Another thing that would need to improve would be
our possession game because if we don’t improve that we wouldn’t even make one
successful pass. Finally we would need to improve our practice time, improve
our practice quality and improve our practice drills. If we do this we will be able to improve our
game play and be more of a competition to the opponent.
“Ref, time?”
“Under a minute,” he answers.
“Let’s go!” I shout.
Soon enough the opponent has a breakaway down the
field and has our final defender to defeat. He tries to dribble right through
him but gets stopped with ease by John who plays a long ball up to Joe. “Push
up!” my coach screamed.
We shot down the field determined to get the winning goal. TWEET,
TWEET, TWEET! The game was over, we tied.
Overall
our team Pewaukee Sussex United has to make some tough decisions that will
affect what we are and what we do. It will even decide what our competition
will be like in the future along with our record in the league. Our record at
the end of the season will play a big role what will happen in two years; will
we move up, move down or stay the same? Is our record is good enough?
