Fury Girls Silver Medalist City Finals
The first game of the Calgary West Fury’s indoor season didn’t go so well. They lost by a wide margin. It was not a great beginning. So the coaches had to take a close look at this team and figure if we were capable of competing at a Tier A level. The answer? The coached and the girls believed they could do it and would not stop practicing until they became competitive. The coaches worked on different positions and really worked on skill development. Each new game, we could see the girls using what they learned in academy and practice time; putting it to very effective use on the field. The transformation was wonderful to watch. Midway through the season, the girls went up against the number one team; yes, the same team that had blown us out in the first game of the season. This was a different Fury team now. They walked away with a 1-1 tie. The hard work had paid off. Fighting for first place with this team all year long, the Fury had to face them again later in the year. The Fury dominated in every aspect of the game and walked away with a huge and decisive victory. We were in first place!. As the play- offs began, we were given the number one seed and made it all the way to the gold medal game. This was the very first time the Calgary West Soccer Club had a U10 team in Tier A go this far. In the gold medal game, the girls played hard in a back and forth, highly entertaining game. We were winning 3-2 with about 5 minutes left. However, the other team was awarded a penalty kick close in and scored to tie the game. The game went into a shoot out and, unfortunately, the Fury lost the Gold Medal on penalty kicks. . But there was no sadness or hanging of our heads. This was a season to be proud of. It showed that Calgary West could produce and coach players that can play and compete at these levels. The Fury girls made us all so proud with their heart, determination and never-say-die attitude. The coaches were beaming with pride. Way to go Fury girls! You did all of us proud. -

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE TIER “A” GIRLS U10 BRONZE MEDALISTS
Wow! What a season. Our first game of the season was a nail biter that our girls won 1-0. After that, the games became more challenging. What impressed us about this group of girls was that they never became discouraged and they kept fighting, kept practicing and kept improving. By mid season, we could all feel things starting to turn around. Our games were all very close and we were now starting to carve out some wins. In our first game of the playoffs, the girls had to face the first place Blizzard Heat. The Blizzard’s had prevailed over the Fury all season, yet the girls battled and were only down by one goal until very late in the game. A few days later we faced the Cochrane Wolves: a team that we couldn’t beat all season. We were losing 1-0 with 5 minutes left and the girls shifted into another gear and took it to the Wolves. With 10 seconds left, the Fury tied it up on a beautiful indirect penalty kick. We ended up winning the game on a shootout as our goalie did not allow even one goal. We were now playing for the bronze medal! Facing NW United, the final game was a nail biter, but our girls simply willed themselves to win. They played with more heart and determination than they ever had and won the game 1-0. This was the first year that the Calgary West Soccer Club had ever entered a Girls team in Tier “A”. And the result was a Bronze Medal! Congratulations and many thanks to the wonderful coaches, Head Coach Glenn and his Assistants Chris and Mike, who believed in this team and taught them the skills to improve and be successful. Thanks also to the parents, family and friends were always cheering and encouraging the girls. But most of all, congratulations to the U10 Fury girls, who will always be remembered as “the little team that could”. -

Super U8 Wrap Up
On Saturday June 20, the six Super U8 teams held their last two scheduled outdoor season games. To cap off the season, teams organized a mini-tournament around these last two games. A season ending final third game was added. The three final matches for the six teams were decided based on the outcomes of the first two games making each of the teams season finale games competitive and exciting. Fans were treated to some excellent soccer enjoying the games under a beautifully sunny sky. Team Chivas took the overall title as tournament champions but it must be noted that success at this level of soccer is measured in skill development, team play and the fun factor. All the teams and their players are champions. CWSC Head Coach, Milan Bartosz, observed the first matches played and then he gathered the players and their families to congratulate them on participating in the first-ever Super U8 competitive soccer season. The Super U8 league was a tremendous success and is a wonderful way to channel the competitive juices of these young athletes as many look forward to playing U10 Competitive in the next outdoor season. The balance of the players will be “veterans” of the league leading their Super U8 teams into yet another wonderful season next year. Thank you to Glen Snarr for organizing the tournament. Thank you to all of the coaches and team managers for pioneering the Super U8 League. See you next season! CWSC -

Hello Calgary West parents and players. I hope all the players who participated in our 3v3 indoor tournament on the weekend enjoyed themselves regardless of their wins or losses.

U10 Boys Tier B CWSC Arsenal - Divisional Champions!
CWSC BU10 Arsenal completed a fantastic spring outdoor season with only 1 loss in 15 games, including winning all 9 of its second round games to claim the Division Crown for Tier B Division 2. As was evident in their play all year, the boys never gave up in any game to ensure they always gave their best to come out on top. Great passing, determined defense, outstanding goalkeeping - the boys jelled from day 1 and got better every week. Now, while the players earned their well deserved Championship, much credit has to go to their very supportive parents and families. Parents, who battled the weather, the mosquitoes and the hectic year ending schedule to get their boys to and from the games and practices, provided refereeing when they were missing, managed the sidelines, built nets, organized coffee runs, etc., etc. Awesome support...every team should be so lucky to have had this great group of parents. And without the outstanding organization of our Team Manager, Glen we would have been a far more stressed out and grey haired group of Coaches and parents. Finally, when one experiences such a tremendous season you never want it to end, so we're coming together again in September for the Fall Cup. On behalf of us Coaches Bruce, Barry, and Peter we hope you have a great summer. We'll see you all in August for Fall Cup training and for the start of a successful indoor season. -
