The third weekend in August, Emily and her summer soccer team played in the Twist tournament, a local tournament that is a lot of fun and easy to get to (thankfully!). The team played an age group up again, to get used to the new field size and strategies, and did okay. It was definitely not their best showing, Emily included. They won their first game, but then lost their next three, all by a score of 3-0. The teams they played were pretty tough - all ranked in the top twenty in Connecticut in the 05 age group - but if the girls had put it all together, they could have won every game. Their coach was definitely frustrated and some of the girls were out of shape, so it will be interesting to see how things play out for this team, including Emily, when the fall begins.
