Round 1 - 26/04/2009
Pascoe Vale travelled to Thomastown to play Lalor Utd in their
first game of the season. It was a cold windy morning and Pascoe
Vale found them selves playing into the wind for the first half.
Despite the conditions, Pascoe Vale had the better chances of
scoring than Lalor, but the score remained 0-0 at half time.
With the wind behind them, it was all Pascoe Vale in the Second
half. Pascoe Vale scored 4 goals before Lalor could break
through with a late goal. It was a great team effort by all and
well deserved win. Final score was 4-1 to Pascoe Vale.
Round 2 - 03/05/2009
It was our first home game and it was a splendid Autumn day,
compared to the Antarctic blast we experienced in Round 1. Round
2 the U10 Joeys (Green) played hosts to Brunswick City. Our boys
tried their best on the day but the boys from Brunswick were too
experienced. One pleasing aspect from the game was the fact that
our boys tried hard all day and never gave up trying. Remember
boys have fun and enjoy the experience of playing against other
teams.
Round 3 - 09/05/2009
The Pascoe Vale U'10 Joeys ventured to Sth Morang to play
Bundoora Utd. The early 9.00am kick off must have affected the
boys because within the first 15 minutes, Pascoe Vale found
themselves trailing 4 nil. Bundoora were dominating. However,
after applying considerable pressure for the remainder of the
first half, the Pascoe Vale Joeys finally scored. At half time
Pascoe Vale were down 1-4. In the second half the boys came out
a different team. Pascoe Vale scored first to bring the score
back to 2-4. The boys fought hard and played some good football
in the second half. The boys eventually went down 3-5 to
Bundoora Utd, but Pascoe Vale were the better team in the second
half. It was a great effort by all the boys in the end. As the
season progresses, they are starting to show some signs of
playing some good football.
Round 4 - 17/05/2009
Today the U10 Joeys Green team was host to Moreland United. This
was our second home game for the season and it was good to be
back playing on our own turf. The start of the game was delayed
somewhat because Moreland Utd turned up undermanned. But
eventually a few more of their team rolled up, so the game
eventually went ahead. For once we played an opposing team that
was evenly matched to our team, how ever some of the opposing
teams players did look older than 9. Our boys after having
conceded the first goal, re-grouped and continuously attacked
their goal. Eventually we were rewarded with some good goals.
The final score was 5-2 in our favour. The boys thoroughly
deserved this victory. They showed that they can play some good
football. Job well done boys. Thank you to all the parents for
their support.
Round 5 - 24/05/2009
Today the morning started extra early for players and coach with
a photo shoot for the U10 Joeys Green Team. All the boys turned
up with their hair styled and groomed ready for their photos.
After the photos were done, it was straight on the pitch to get
ready for the big clash against Northcote City. The game started
with Northcote City the stronger, however, our boys didn’t show
them much respect. Mid way through the first half one of our
boys received a high boot to the face and had to come off
injured. In the second half we kept on attacking and eventually
scored a goal, and it was a good one at that.
The boys worked hard to get that goal and they deserved it after
the gutsy effort that they put in through the game. Had the
teams been evenly matched I think the end result would have been
different. Then tragic struck again. Another player from Pascoe
Vale had to go off injured. My interchange bench resembled the
emergency area at St Vincent’s Hospital. We didn’t win on the
scoreboard, but full points must go to all the boys for not
giving up. Well done boys. Thank you to all the parents for
their support.
