Last Friday the newly formed Barfly FC met at Acapella Bar. Alex gave us these sweet kits (he personally designed the badge and jersey!) and we had our first meeting as Barfly FC. Above is the our first team photo. We talked a bit about our expectations, about strategy and made it clear that we are out there to have fun and play together as a team.
The next morning we met at 7:30 am (!) as we prepared and warmed up for our first match. We have already missed 4 games so we stood 0-4 before the match but by 8:30, the end of the first period (total time is three 30 minute periods) we were up 5-0! Great start. Playing 8 on 8 on a smaller pitch is quite different from 11 a side but we've all been playing smaller games at training on Tuesdays and Thursdays so we were ready to dominate. We had lots of team chemistry as well.
Anyways, we ended up winning 13-2! We destroyed the other team with clinical finishing, skillful teamwork, tenacious defending and a strong believe in each other's abilities. It was a truly great start to the season.
It's now Saturday morning and I'm trying to get up some pics of the last game before I set out for today's match at 11:20. I didn't take too many shots, as it was raining and I was playing for most of the game. Without further ado, the photos!
