2011 season ends

THUNDER went 1-1-1 in the district cup to close out the season. We had fun with an amazingly full roster on Sunday, we missed only Julian and Nate and Eddie was asking to play as well. Thanks to all the parents and players who participated this season. It was a bit of a topsy turvy season with our challenges of getting enough players to some games. But this was to be expected and somehow it worked out. Heck, we even went international to recruit Jarand from Norway, adding a fiery nordic element to the mix.

As always I enjoyed coaching the team - this was the 6th? season. And we'll roll into another select season next year - why not? We will be carrying forth a good core and should be able to pick some players from some other teams

Look for more info in April/May.
