TISAC Results Sport Tournaments

Football U-9 Team

Football U-9 Team

We have so much enthusiasm for soccer in G2 and G3 in our school. Even though TISAC recommends 12 players on a roster during league play because that is the rule at the tournament, we had 21 dedicated boys throughout the season. Players came out for practices every Monday and Friday afternoon, often knowing that they were not playing in the next game but selflessly being a part of the Dragon Team. Finishing in second place in our division in the league, we went to the final TISAC tournament at Regent’s School on March 19th. Although the U-9 team didn’t bring home the championship trophy, we pulled off some great games and one big win. Several coaches commented on our talent. There are many G2 players returning next year to turn up the heat and have great success in the TISAC. Look for them next year. : Coach Ted

Football U-11 Team

Conference, we did very well. This hard working U-11 Dragons team finished second in our division! The players had lots of fun and it was a real learning experience participating in the end of year Tournament. Puthipwas a great leader both on and off the field and Shin having multiple talents, impressed players from different schools. We are looking forward to next year. : Coach Raymond

Football U-13 Team

It has been a fantastic football season for the Concordian U13 Dragons. They played some of the most challenging and exciting games ever, each time getting better and better, learning what it truly means to be a real team. Lots of hard work and effort was put into training and from it we were able to see some true shining stars. A big thank you to our goalie Lang for his brave and fearless saves. Our defense, Al, Mac, Keng, Pooh, Boomers,Tee and Name have truly been amazing. You guys were able to stop some of the toughest offensive players with your wall-like abilities. Thank you to our midfielders Peem and Eiffel for your endless effort and energy you brought to all the games. Finally, a huge thanks to our captain Tan, his brother Title and our MVP Shin for you speed, energy, sportsmanship and positive attitude. It has been an honor to be your coach this season and I look forward to working with you guys in the near future again. Well done team! : Coach Yuri

Seniors Football Team

CONCORDIAN

Dragon football fever was hottest with the Seniors Boys team. Mid season, players had a major attitude change. Coach K began using KAYA FC tactics in training sessions and we went with a defensive formation combined with total football. We won the next two games against teams that we had lost to earlier in the season. At the TISAC tourna10 ment Ascot was the clear champion. They were in our group and the only team to beat us, 2-1. It is a good feeling knowing that, even though we are such a young team and up against schools that have been playing together in leagues and tournaments for most of their lives, we can hold our own. The Beautiful Game thrives at Concordian.: Senior Dragons
