Congratulations to Coach Ekom Etuk and LMVSC Patriots 2001 Girls Red, our LMVSC travel team of the week.
During Columbus Day weekend, Coach Ekom Etuk and LMVSC Patriots 2001 Girls Red participated in the prestigious WAGS Tournament, playing and winning their bracket in the top flight of their age group at the Virginia Soccer Training Center in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Even though they got off to a slow start, narrowly losing by one-nil. against VSA, the girls finish strong by winning back to back games against two very strong teams. In their second match against Wizard FC of Illinois, the girls came out on top by a score of 1 to 0. Then in their third and final match, they were able to best GPS Florida West by the very same score line.
2001 Girls Red Roster:
Farida Alsadig, Abigail Dittman, Jessica Foss, Kathleen Fraze, Makayla Henry, Beatrice Heratsch, Kate Herz, Morgan Long, Lexi Martinez, Sarah Milam, Madison Miller, Eleanor Mulvenon, Alexia Pugh, Mackenzie Rivera, Isabella Squire, Leia Surovell, Dana Wendy, Madison Yim, Taylor Yim

This week in training:
·
Our U9-U12 is working on Crossing and Finishing. The key tactical aspects are the understanding of how to create with and depth in attack, as well as understanding when and where to make runs and passes when attempting to get into wide positions in the attacking third. Then the players on the flanks with the ball need to understand when, where, and how to place the ball in the box for teammates to finish on goal. Next is for the attacking players in the box to know where, when, and how to make runs into dangerous areas in the box. The technical aspects are how to receive and strike the ball under
pressure in these areas of the field.
·
Our U13 and above is working on improving their abilities to create and convert chances in the attacking third. At this level, players need to gain the understanding of how to create myriad attacking options in the final third. This includes crossing and finishing, as well as combination play, shooting from distance, and individual solo runs with the ball. Being adept at attacking in various ways makes it difficult for the opponents to adjust and defend. This makes play unpredictable, which forces the opponent to make decisions, and ultimately, make mistakes. Attackers need to have the technical ability to execute, in the tactical understanding of how and where to attack.

Competitive players at all ages and levels need to understand formations and the numerical system in designating positions and roles on the field. The outlined formations for 7v7, 9v9, and 11v11 can be found by clicking the link below. These are all based on the progression to and then the execution of the 1-4-3-3, used by both the men’s and women’s national team. These can also be found, downloaded, and printed, under “Resources” in PLAYMETRICS.
