Thu, Sep 17 2009 - Indoor Soccer - All Levels Welcome (View Original Event Details)
|
Another great group of COC’ers made for a really enjoyable evening of indoor soccer at the Calgary Soccer Centre tonight! As usual we enjoyed a solid 2 hours of field time allowing us ample warm up time and three 35 minute periods complete with short intermissions. It was a very unusually low scoring game tonight with teams exchanging just one goal per frame during the opening two periods. The 3rd and final frame saw the most action as Gold and Blue each score twice but with time running out, overtime was required to declare a winner. Shortly into the extra time, Brian broke in all alone and slipped a softie past the keeper to win the game 5-4 for Team Gold. It was a highly entertaining, well played, hard fought match. As usual, a great time was had by all! Congratulations Gold on your well deserved victory.
Tonight's "Player of the Game" award was presented immediately following the game to Marvin Dragland, a regular attendee of COC indoor soccer since September 2007. Marvin is an outgoing, friendly individual who works hard and plays hard. He joined the club back in 2004 and somehow manages to find time every week to juggle a hectic work schedule with multiple COC sporting events! He is an easy going, non-competitive guy who comes out week after week just to have fun and get together with friends. His positive attitude and great sportsmanship are much appreciated at all my events. It has been a real pleasure getting to know him over the past couple of years and I look forward to enjoying many more events with him in the future. Congratulations on your well deserved award Marvin!
