This Week in NorthWood Soccer

Tonight is the regular Monday Night OG @AC. We will start around 7:30 til about 9 pm. Saturday Night the Indorr team (Oranje VC) will play at 10 pm versus Montoya2. The next night (Sunday 12/4) Oranje VC will play Hawkins Water at 9 pm.

Noodle is back, Jacob is running

Our seniors are getting better. Noodle is back in action. He was cleared by the doctor and was back at OG last night. His fracture healed well, the same can be said about Jacob. He healed quickly as well and he was cleared last week to run. Progress for both.

Oranje VC -Mad Kickers 9-0

Easy win with a hat trick by Taylor and a lot of other goals by a lot of other players. And an unusual shutout considering it is indoor. he new shirts were in and so Oranje looked "oranje". Pictured above are the new shirt on left and the "alernate" on the right. Nice work by the design team. Record now 1-2, next game Saturday 12/3 at 10 (!!) pm against Montoya2.

Oranje VC (U19 Indoor) schedule for the next couple of weeks

Sun 11/20/11 vs Mad Kickers (0-2) at 7pm
Sat 12/03/11 vs Montoya2 at 10 pm

So a game this Sunday and then a weekend off but then back to back nights the following weekend.

This week in NW Soccer

Last night Oranje Indoor played Real Ligonier (West Noble). The score was a little on the ugly side (11-2 Loss). Next Sunday the indoor game will start at 7 pm!

Tonight will be the third OG/AC of the off season. Since the basketball season started, we will start around 7:30pm and will go til about 9 to 9:15 pm.

And that is all in another somewhat boring week in NW soccer, thank God for Mondays!!!

****STARTING TIME OG/AC CHANGE****

Due to football using the AC, followed by basketball we will start at 7:3- - 9ish.

RKC - FC Groningen 1-1

Disappointing result......

This week in NW Soccer

A normal week in NW soccer. Tonight from 7 - 8:30ish, we will have OG@AC.
Real Ligonier is the next opponent for Oranje VC, next Sunday (11/13/11) at 8 pm.

Indoor Game 1, 5-2 loss to NR Indoor

At 2-2, 2 sitters on or near goal line were missed, momentum swing goes NR way. Overall pretty good soccer by Oranje VC.

Also, this week (actually today, Monday) marks the deadline to pay your fee for playing on the U19 indoor team. Nine players have paid and are therefore on the roster.

If you have the money today, you can pay Coach Duerksen during school or before Open Gym.

Answer to blog below.....

Mexico played Brazil last night

Eusebio and Coach Dijkstra had a bet, Eusebio said Mexico would win (dumb), Dijkstra said Brazil would (smart).

Eusebio challenged Dijkstra; if Mexico wins, Dijkstra washes Eusebio's limo. If Brazil would, Eusebio would caress Dijkstra's sleigh with wet rags.

Brazil was losing 1-0 (own goal Brazil of course) and Eusebio started celebrating ("only 24 min left Coach!!"). Then Brazil tied in 80th (Eusebio : "crap"), then Brazil went ahead 2-1 with just a few minutes left (Eusebio: "S*%t") and now Eusebio has to wash the Dijkstra mobile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will post when and where this will take place!!!!

What does this mean?

ANSWER WILL BE POSTED LATER ON......... BET SOMEONE KNOWS WHAT THIS MEANS!
