8 for 8. Looks like I do know what I'm talking about.

Improvement and consistency is the key for U11 development.
In the meantime, NU seems to be blowing out each and every team thrown at them. They seemed to have gotten their act together.

Hammer is a decent second tier team. They do not belong in the same conversation as WUP, NU, NEFC, etc.
A 1-1 draw with North Shore United? They have 1 win.
A loss to Strikers, and then they get pounded by FC Mass.
They beat Weymouth 3-2.
Does any of that happen if WUP, NU or NEFC played those same 4 games? No.
There is no shame in being a middle of the table team if your kids are developing. Don't let your ego get in the way of an intelligent conversation about soccer.

I didn't see the games being referenced here but keeping a score close isn't anything to brag about. If it was close because the kids played well then OK, but if you're always keeping it close but not winning then maybe you have some work to do in regards to ball movement? Did you pepper the other team with shots and the other teams goalie just kept coming up big? I'm not trying to be critical but let's try and be a little objective on here from time to time. Kids aren't developing it they're just defending all the time!

good thing the agc aka scorekeeper for blue accepted the role as not once have scores been entered by sunday night. a couple of the others aren't much better. not that it matters at u11, but, really, it doesnt take more than 2 minutes to get it done.

Looks like NU won't even play the better teams in green. Only one tough game all fall and blown out. Ouch. Easy wins against div 3 teams and 7-2 loss against the big boys. Hmm. Not sure this is the best development game model.
