U18 GIRLS A CLASSY BUNCH OF ATHLETES!

The U18 Girls Tier 3 Girls Provincials saw something truly special happen at this years tournament.

The U18 Tier 3 Pool was a super close and hard fought tournament with VERY INTENSE Gold/Silver and Bronze games.  We all know how crazy the games can get at this final tournament of the year, yet the three teams that won the Gold, Silver and Bronze while waiting for the medal presentation sat with each other, visited, made jokes, laughed and enjoyed each others company.  This was a joy to see and a true testament to not only the girls but all the coaches as well. Even the Alberta Soccer Presenter said to the teams and parents in attendance that in all the years he has been awarding medals at provincials he has never seen a group girls get along so well after battling so hard in Provincials!

That’s what this game is all about!!  It is actions like we saw with these three teams that reminds us all why devote the time and teaching of our youth in the sport we all love.  These teams are an example to us all!  Keeping it competitive and classy all at the same time!  Way to go everyone!!!
