First Impressions

U12 is playing a semifinal match against Althea Scatliffe on Wednesday at AO Shirley grounds. The time is not set in stone but it might be 3:45. If VG wins their match and depending on what time the boat gets them here for their match, ours might be the second match of the afternoon. Coach Cas will do her best to confirm the time before Wednesday.

Hello Parents,

At the end of yesterday’s match where the U7-Orange team lost 1-0, we thought that we had lost to Robinson O’Neal, which is the opponent name we drew on Tuesday. It was after the match that we found out that we were put to play against Bregado Flax! We were supposed to play the team whose name we drew, and if there was a mix-up then there should have been a re-draw.

Well, the parents have decided that we need to reach out to the BVI Football Association so that FAIR PLAY, which is highly promoted by the FIFA, will overrule what has taken place. In order to get this done we need numbers, plenty people “rattling the cage” so WE NEED YOU  to call or email the Football Association and address Mr. Alfred Reid who is the Acting General Secretary to let him know that we would like yesterday’s match to be erased and proper procedure followed where we can draw again and play whoever we draw. RIGHT IS RIGHT.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Everyone,

We had a very exciting match today where the U7 Orange team won their match against Montessori, which NOW puts them into the Semi-Finals (today’s match was a quarter-final – we had a mix-up and thought it was a semi . . . anyway).

Coach Colin would like to have a practice tomorrow (Wednesday) after school with the team so if you can, please send your child prepared for a practice. Also, someone safeguarded Coach Colin’s last blue ball at the match today. Please send it tomorrow so they can use it for the practice.

On Thursday the team will meet Robinson O’Neal at 3:30 at A. Scatliffe pitch for the Semi-final match. Please come out on time to support the team as they hope to make it to the finals and to win the league.

Big thanks to everyone who came out today, we had an exciting time and when the match went to penalty shootouts and then to sudden death, it was really stressful for some parents. We were victorious and congratulate the team for not giving up. Our worthy opponents, Montessori, are also to be congratulated for a great match.

On Saturday morning our U12 team was not aware of a match scheduled to be played on Virgin Gorda and we missed the 9:00 ferry. Thanks to the fast work of the dedicated Football Parents, we scraped a team together and were able to catch the 10:15 ferry. We got to Virgin Gorda just in time to play the match against Claudia Creque whose team had arrived from Anegada that morning. It was a good match and we were victorious with a final score of 3-0. Congratulations to all team members, those who made it and those who could not. Also special thanks for the moral support from Lucas Santos who is not able to play any more matches because of a broken arm. Get well soon Lucas!

Monday 19-May will see the U12 team again in action at Baughers Bay as we take on St Georges in our final match. The match is loosely scheduled to start between 3:45 and 4:15.

Tuesday 20-May the U7-Orange team will play their qtr-final match at Althea Scatliffe at about 3:45

Thursday 22-May – If the U7 Orange are victorious in their quarter-final match, they will be in the semifinal on this day, also at A. Scatliffe at about the same time.

Good luck to both our teams that are playing this week.
