After practice we always have a conversation to reflect on each team members strengths and weaknesses in order to improve our team play.

During halftime the coach encouraged us not to quit and it strengthen our spirit, giving us the energy to comeback. We were regenerated at the most critical moment and in the end we beat them 3 to 1.”
