Soccer Game 8/15/09

What a game, the kids are doing wonderful things.  Saturday’s game a couple of the defensive players(players who asked to play defense) impressed me on offense, one of the goalies was throwing the ball out of the goal with incredible accuracy.  Unfortantly due to a couple of 4th qaurter goals we lost 3-1. All seven players had to play the whole game and a few of them got tired in the fourth quarter. Two more players did get a shot on goal, that is 6 of the 8 this season. Three different players have scored.

A wise man once said “the tough part of coach is your on the sidelines.”  However, it is fun to watch the six players on the field all chase the ball at the same time.(We will have to work on that).  We lost the game 5 to 3, but some really good things happened.  Four of the eight player got a shot on goal, and one of them is a first year player.  4 down and 4 to go to make my goal of getting every player a shot at the goal.   The stratagy of pulling the defense on corner kicks worked great as we scored on our only corner kick of the game.  Tonight practice will focus on some one on one defensive drills and goalie drills.

New NSP Down Payment Assistance Program

2 comments

Lyon County is offering deferred loans to assist homebuyers through the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP), which is part of the federal bailout program.  The program is available to help homebuyers purchase bank-owned homes in zip code areas 89403 (Dayton) and 89408 (Fernley).

These loans are interest-free silent second mortgages that require no monthly payments.  The loan is due only upon sale, transfer of title, refinance with cash out, or when the home ceases to serve as a primary residence.
