SPC GAME Notes
The JV Chargers showed improvement in losing a hard fought game to SPC 2-0. The overall team effort was great.
Individual defensive technique was much better than last game. We largely refrained from diving in and played good position defense. SPC was a team that had some good individual players but did not have great teamwork. They became frustrated and more frantic as the game went on.
Along the mid and in the defensive third we showed better foot skills and teamwork.
BUT WE HAVE MANY THINGS TO WORK ON. PRIMARY PROBLEMS FROM THE FIRST TWO GAMES WHICH STILL MUST BE ADDRESSED :
1. We must capitalize on scoring opportunities. We had three golden moments in the last game - balls we possessed directly in front of the goalkeeper- and did not put one ball on frame. We must finish.
2. We did not create enough opportunities in the scoring third. In the last game, the SPC defense was ripe for a ball to the corner, a diagonal pass, or a triangle set to a player running thru. These are all strategies we have practiced (and warm up with before the game ) but did not perform during the game.

Berkeley Game
See Ebytes for a complete summary of the game.
In general, we played hard and improved throughout the game. We have several things that we must improve to become a better team. One, we must display better basic foot skills. Two, we must develop better individual defending technique (stop diving in). Finally, we must create passing lanes thru triangulation and off the ball movement. We addressed all of these things during practice. We will continue to work on them throughout the year.
