Silly Poem

A bright day in the middle of the night,
two dead men got up to fight

Back to back they faced each other,
drew out their swords and shot each other

A deaf policeman heard the noise,
got up, and shot those two dead boys

If you don't believe this lie is true,
ask the blind man...
He saw it too.

'06 Intertown Spring Tournament

Last Saturday (June 17th), the Clash played in the Intertown Spring Tournament. The way it worked was that every team that participated was garented to play at least 2 games. If you won both of the games, then you went on to play in the championship game. If you won that game, than your team was the champ!!
Weeeelllllll......the first game that we played was at 8:30am on Saturday. We had to play our own town (how crazy is that??!!). Well, there wasn't anything terribly exciting about that game. The score was 7-0, and we won. And I forgot to mention that we only had one sub for this game,and then she left, so we didn't have any subs for the next games (keep this in mind). One down, one more to go (then again, maybe two more to go...who knows??!).
The second game that we played was at 10:30pm. Oh yes, I forgot to mention that we were playing 20 minute halfs, because it was a tournament, and that it was terribly hot out. But anyways, we played against T (they had won their first game, too). It was the hardest game of the season (on my opinion). The T team was very physical. And I mean VERY. They were pushing and shoving and pulling, etc. And the strange thing was that the referee just watched it all and didn't do anything about it (the ref looked like he was about 15-17 years old. And he wasn't calling anything, except for when the ball went out of bounds.)!! Shelby got hurt, and had to get pulled out of the game, so, it was 7 on 8 for a little while. Dad had to pull Shelby out for a few minutes later in the game because she was going to get hurt or hurt someone else the was that the other team was playing. Another one of the girls on our team, Katy, was so upset at the way that the other team was playing that she almost cryed quite a few times. It was a hard game not only because of the other team's attitude and the referee, but also because it was such a tiny field. The goals were about 5 feet tall at most. I'm saying that they were tiny! Anyways, our first goal was off of a corner kick. I don't remember who scored it, but it was quite early in the game, and it was great!! The corner kick was kicked, and somehow it got to one of players who was in front of the goal, and they kicked it on the ground right past the goalie!! We were all totally excited!! It was great!! Ashlee got the second goal. She kicked it high, and it sloped right over the goalie's head and into the goal!! It looked awesome!! T scored in the second half, but we kept the off to win 2-1!! I also forgot to mention that the all of the teams that we played had more than double the amount of players that were on the field. In other words, they had a lot more players that we did. So now, we had won the first two games, and now...drum roll please...we were going on to the championship game!!!
For the championship game, we had to wait for the last U-13 girls game to finish, so that we could figure out who was playing, and then we had to wait even longer to wait for a field to open up. We finally ended up playing C 1 (if you have been keeping up with my other posts about our games, you will remember that we already played them twice in the regular season). It was an interesting game, not as physical as the first game, but not as easy as the first game. As you will most likely remember, be tied with them the first time that we played them, and then be beat them the second time that we played them. Well, at the end of the second half, we were leading 2-0 (I got a goal in the first half. I had played Center Defense for the first two games, and for the first half of this game I played midfield, and for the second half of this game, I played Center Defense again.). For the second half, both of us scored a goal. They scored the goal on Dani (the T team scored on Ashlee. Both of the goals hit the post and then went in, so they (Ashlee and Dani) didn't have too great of a chance of blocking them.). So yea, we won 3-1!!! GO CLASH!! We were the 2006 Intertown Spring tournament U-13 Girls Champions!! I think that we all had a great time, even though we were all tired an sweaty by the end of the game!! Here is a picture of the tournament Champs team-Well, that's the end of the Spring soccer season for the undefeated Clash!! Our record was 8-0-2!! Next season, most of the players (including me) will be moving up to a U-14 (under 14) travel team, so stay tuned!! 'Till next season, now and always, GO CLASH!!!P.S.

Still The Cross

Here is an awesome song, it's sung by FFH.

Still The Cross
by Jeromy Deibler, Scott Williamson, Donna Smith

Sometimes it seems the world's unraveling around us
We fear it all may one day come undone
We can't forget the One who came before us
To forgive the past and bring hope for what's to come

When it all comes crashing down
The cross still stands alone
On this our faith is built
And our courage is made strong

When the world falls apart
And you fear for your heart
There's a tower of peace
It's still the cross

So bring your sick and your poor
And your longing for more
To the place of relief
It's still the cross
There is hope for the lost
It's still the cross

Sometimes it feels that I have been forgotten
I don't know how I will make it on my own
But the One who said I will never be forsaken
He still hears my prayer and I will never be alone

When it all comes crashing down
The cross still stands alone
and on this our faith is built
And our courage is made strong

When the world falls apart
And you fear for your heart
There's a tower of peace
It's still the cross

So bring your sick and your poor
And your longing for more
To the place of relief
It's still the cross
There is hope for the lost
It's still the cross

Though the world may not confess
You and Your holiness
One day all will see
You in all your majesty
And the cross still stands alone
As the place where You made known
Your love for all mankind
Till then in it we'll hide

When the world falls apart
And you fear for your heart
There's a tower of peace
It's still the cross

So bring your sick and your poor
And your longing for more
To the place of relief
It's still the cross
There is hope for the lost
It's still the cross

Clash vs. C 1

Today the mighty, mighty Clash played against C 1 again, but this time, it was at their field. It was raining, and it was cold!! We won!! YEA!!! The score was 6-4!! The Clash is STILL undefeated!! Oh yeah!! Johanna scored 3 goals (Go Johanna!!), Becky scored 2 goals (Go Becky!!), and I scored 1 goal!! It was kind of a strange game. We score the first goal, then they got a goal, then they got another goal, and then Becky helped them by getting a goal on us on a corner kick!! It was kind of strange!! Then I got a goal. I played center defence for the whole game. I was a couple of yards over the center line. We had a corner kick, and some how, the ball got kicked out to me. I kick it at the goal, and it some how got in!! I think that it went into the top right corner. The other goalie kind of hit it in. I was very surprized!! Well, after that, Johanna and Becky got their goals, and we won!! YEA!! Anyways, the Clash is still undefeated!! GO CLASH!!!!!!!
