PLAYERs of the month - november 2024
ryder mathine | 10b sansom red
Since joining the red team, Ryder has gone from strength to strength as a marauding right winger. It has been great to see his ball striking improving week in week out and him adding movement into his play to help link up and combine with his team mates. Ryder’s recent performances have seen him become an integral part of the team and being rewarded with some fantastic goals!
ana flores | 08g williams
Ana has worked tirelessly this fall season, both in a new team and a new level of play. She is selfless with the work she does for the team in the press, but also in the positions she is willing to play. Ana plays through adversity, fatigue and injury, doing all the things that may not always be noticeable. Her efforts, however, are always noticed and appreciated by her teammates.
matthew kim | 11b stricker black
Matthew is such a great goal keeper and an even better young man. He works hard at every training session and competes to be better with his hands and feet each week. He has really become one of the best gks in NTX for his age. Matthew is always very encouraging to his teammates and really cares about the other players on his team. He is a big reason for the 11B Black team’s success and is a pleasure to coach.
melody swindle | 15g campanella white
Mel came to the team as a practice player and looking for a spot on the team. With the team transitioning to 7v7, Mel stepped up as goalkeeper and learned on the fly. Her natural instincts, quickness, speed, and her fearlessness made her a perfect fit. Her love for the game as a field player is quickly turning Mel into an imposing force shutting teams down and helping start the team’s attacks. Mel rarely misses a PK stop and is constantly complimented by referees and other coaches.
