Re: Chestnut Ridge Boys Soccer
Sasha will contribute a lot if he shoots the ball when he has an open lane, I'm not dissing him or anything, but he does need to learn to shoot when he's open. But yes, Fabian, Fred, Brad and others will contribute a lot to the team. I think Ridge will beat Fannet Metal tomorrow.

Re: Chestnut Ridge Boys Soccer
I think our problem is when the other team scores more than one goal and we're down. We always end up losing heart and getting frustrated with each other. At the end of the game we always step up the intensity...but it's usually too late. If we can pick up the intensity at the beggining of the game instead of waiting until the end, we can win more.

Re: Chestnut Ridge Boys Soccer
I may not know much a bout the current coach , However I do know of his help. The former art teacher was head coach when i was in school. He was given little respect from the team then ( the reason he only coached on year) and from what i understand is given little respect today.
I watched the opening game for Ridge. IMO Lack of communacation, No one ever running through the ball(everone just seemed to stand there and wait for it) and players that did not look like they should be competing at the high school level on the feild lead to a loss
The team looked a little better at NBC but still no communacation and the defence seemed to be colapsing in on its self the hole first half.
I realy hope that this team can turn its self around but there seems to be a few components missing. Who will step up and fill this... I dont know but im hoping some out there will.

Re: Chestnut Ridge Boys Soccer
i'm not trying to put any disrespect on that assistant coach...but...the past few days he hasnt been at practice and all of the teams morale is up, we're playing better, and having more fun...it may be a coincidence...but that's the honest truth!
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

Re: Chestnut Ridge Boys Soccer
Amen to that count2infinity! That's no coincidence, he's a good person, just not a good coach. I like the man, but to tell you the truth greensleeves, we do play better when he's not there. When he's there at practice, the defense rarely sees the offense because we're always separated doing drills, but the last few practices we've really been working together and I think that's helped us improve on some areas of the game.
But that's just my opinion!
