SATURDAY APRIL 7th Practice canceled

Due to freezing temperatures, practice for today is canceled. We'll definitely reschedule for something soon.

Apologies for the late message.

First game recap, schedule and practice info:

Hey shrimps!

We had our first game this past weekend at Daingerfield Island, and despite a losing score of 4-1, the outdoor Shrimps looked better than we did in the fall!

We're thinking of holding a few practices outdoor before our next game in two weeks -- one definitely on Saturday in Georgetown at 10:30 a.m. (at the same place we practiced during the summer around 39th Place NW where it intersects with Calvert). This will focus on ball handling, passing and defense.

Please let us know in the comments section if you're able to make the practice! We'll be discussing our new "SHRIMPS PASSING STRATEGY" created by Scott McCarthy:



And to get you thinking defense, Maureen 'Mo Thugs' Hoch has sent along an insightful video titled 'how to defend':

ALSO: Fees for our leagues are due at our next game, so everybody please bring me a check for $60 bucks. right now i only have two orders for shrimp shirts (you can peruse our design at right), so if anyone needs one... lemme know. i can't order till we have 12


Also, also: you can always check our schedule under the "links" section to the right of the page.

Women's Soccer Clinic

Aly Hurt gave me a heads up about this clinic in the summer. A few of us did it in the winter, and it was really really helpful!

The Washington Freedom is hosting another six-week women's soccer
clinic this summer on Mondays beginning July 9. If it's anything like
the one that Caitlin, Jenn Sandhya and I attended this winter, it's
pretty rigorous and worth the investment if you have the time/interest.
