| Several players get a final practice in at Bear Creek Park before their season opener tomorrow against Hot Soccer Moms |
Coach Oscar Aviles and assistant coach Scott Machala were on hand for a co-op practice between several members of Club Bad News Bears and an all girls squad, led by former Bear and current TFC Thunder player Lorena Reyes. The temperature was in the mid-50s this morning at Bear Creek Park, but it didn't stop those Bears in attendance from fine tuning their skills before the big game tomorrow against Hot Soccer Moms.
Coach Oscar is looking at having more of these practices made available to the team throughout the season."I can't force anyone to come out and practice, but the practices will be there. Players who do show up will see how beneficial the practices are and that they do really help."
In attendance were Emilio Estevez, Rachel and Sophie Ammar, and Soso.
Assistant coach Scott seemed excited for those that did show up, but did appear a little concerned for those that didn't."I know that it's hard to accommodate everyone's schedule. I hope that we can get more players out here next time. The ones who did show up today really benefitted from all of the drills and scrimmaging today."
The Bears coaching staff is looking at having two practices a week throughout the season, one on Thursday evenings and the other on Saturday mornings.
