So as someone once said, if a tree falls in the forest and no one sees or hears it, did it really fall ?
Why do I start with this, well if I don't write anything on my blog, does this mean, that I am not doing anything related to soccer..... Of course I am, preparations are heating up. We finally selected the 20 athletes who will make up our team. It was an exciting process as we had many different players to choose from which showed the interest that more and more athletes are having to be part of this team and to participate in the FISU Games. Over the last few years, FISU games have gone from something many were somewhat familiar with but weren't sure how the team was picked to being something that our top CIS female soccer players strive to get recognized, and selected for. Once the dust had cleared on our selection process, we have 8 returnees from the 2009 team plus one member who was selected for those games but had to be replaced due to injury. The group will be different and in many ways deeper and more skilled that the previous games, just hope they show the same chemistry and team dynamic that was able to come together so quickly last time around. The CIS should be releasing the names of our athletes shortly and you will be able to find that list by clicking on the image in the Shenzhen 2011 web page. From this point forward, lots of work to do getting all the paperwork submitted so we can get the accreditation for all the athletes and staff. I will try and update more regularly as we move forward and for sure, will have the return of guest bloggers once the team gets together. I will also try and add some comments and thoughts about the upcoming Stingers season
