Samantha played in her first ever indoor soccer game on Monday, November 1st, at the Genesee Fieldhouse. Since she had never practiced with her team nor played this type of game before, none of us knew what to expect. The game is drastically different than what was played in AYSO during her last session, that is for sure. The speed is much greater (thanks in large part to less resistance from the grass), the action is much more back and forth, the field is narrower, and some of the rules are different. Considering all of the things I have mentioned, I think Sam played a pretty darned good game, if I do say so myself. She let some balls sneak past her on some passes, which she will need to work on, but she also had two good scoring chances. Too bad she couldn't have kicked one of them in, as her team allowed a late game goal and wound up losing 0-1.
