Preseason Excitement

Coach Mike | July 31, 2009

The Lunachicks have started their preseason practices in preparation for a busy preseason in August. We’ve been accepted into the Twin City Classic tournament scheduled for August 22nd and 23rd in Winston-Salem, NC, which is always an exciting tournament. These will be the first official 11v11 matches the girls will play.

To help prepare for that, the team will face off against a couple of teams from Guilford United Soccer Club on August 15th in Mebane during the MYSA’s friendly weekend.

The team will be holding a Car Wash fundraiser at Advance Auto Parts in Mebane (1008 Mebane Oaks Road) on Saturday August 29th from 10AM through 4PM. So come get your car cleaned and help support the Lunachicks! All proceeds will go towards travel and tournament expenses.

We’re looking forward to another exciting (and hopefully more successful) season!

GO LUNACHICKS!

Spring 2009 Girls Soccer Clinic

Coach Mike | May 6, 2009

Every season the Lunachicks try to do something to ‘give back’ to the league, and that usually is a free skills clinic for younger girls playing in the MYSA Recreational program. The Lunachicks and volunteer coaches take groups of girls through various skills stations and activities with the Lunachicks helping to show the younger girls how to do various moves and skills. The Fall clinic had over 30 girls participating, so we were excited to hold the clinic again this season. However, with all the rain we had, it was hard for us to schedule the clinic in advance due to all the makeup matches we had to deal with. Once our schedule stabilized, we decided to hold the clinic before our last home match, but were only able to give people a weeks notice, so turnout was lower than normal. Still, the girls who showed up had a great time as did the Lunachicks. I want to thank all the girls who came out and all the coaches who volunteered to help out. Finally, thanks to all the Lunachicks who gave up most of their Sunday afternoon to help some of the younger girls improve their soccer skills. Great job ladies!

Looking To Spring 2009

Coach Mike | December 19, 2008

Hopefully everyone is enjoying the hustle and bustle before the holidays! We’re hard at work on our Spring schedule and will have some updates on that soon. Since our playing season will begin February 7th, we’re going to be starting practice a bit earlier than normal. Starting the week of January 5th, our practice schedule for January will be as follows:

  • Mondays 6:30-8 Field MSC-4D
  • Thursdays 6:30-8 Field MSC-4D
  • Saturdays 10:30-12 Field MSC-4D

We understand many of the girls have winter sports/activities like basketball and absolutely expect them to make those their top priority early in our season. Just try to make all the practices you can without impacting your winter activity.

Our season will get underway at the FVAA Presidential Classic February 7th and 8th in Fuquay-Varina/Raleigh. Then it looks like we’ll start our regular season play February 14th, though that is still being worked out. We should have our official schedule after January 10th.

The coaching staff are also working on filling in our season with other activities. Some possibilities include:

  • Some friendlies in January and possibly in April if we have dates available.
  • Beat The Heat Tournament – April 25/26 in Winston-Salem
  • Seaside Classic Tournament – May 16/17 in Wilmington – BEACH TRIP!
  • One or two girls clinics. The first was a huge success, and we’d like to try and hold one or two of these clinics again, maybe in combination with a friendly match or something. Still working on this.
  • I think we need to take the girls to play paintball. If your insurance is paid up! But in all seriousness, it might be neat to do a fun non-soccer activity as a team sometime this season
  • End of season pool party

We’re always open for suggestions! Again, the above are just ideas at this point. We may only do one of the post season tournaments or we may do both. Depends on what you all are up for.

That’s it for now.

GO LUNACHICKS!

Congratulations To Coach Mike!

Leslie | December 8, 2008

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO COACH MIKE!!!  The North Carolina Youth Soccer Association awarded him Girls’ Challenge Coach of the Year for 2008!  The girls delivered the news last night at our local Blue Ribbon Diner and he was VERY surprised!

The Lunachicks and the ‘Fringe’ had a great evening celebrating with Coach Mike!!  We are privileged and honored to have our ENTIRE coaching staff and to be a part of the Lunachick family.  Of course, the folks at Blue Ribbon were probably VERY glad to see us leave, but we surely made our own brand of Lunachick fun while we were there :)

Also celebrating with us were many MYSA league officials, Board Members, MYSA Director of Coaching, friends, past players, and past parents from previous teams that Coach Mike had been a part of.  Thanks to ALL for coming out and making this a very special evening!

Fiesta!!!

Coach Mike | November 24, 2008

The Lunachicks invaded La Cocina, one of Mebane’s popular Mexican restaurants, for an end of season dinner party. My apologies to all those who came for a quiet dinner only to walk into a room with fourteen energetic 11-12 year old girls, parents, and other siblings having a good time. We really are harmless.

Williams Falls 1-2 In Regional Final

Coach Mike | November 13, 2008

Thanks to all the Lunachicks who came out to watch the Williams Bulldogs play Jacksonville in the 3A regional finals last night. They got to ball chase for half the match then watch the rest of the match from the stands. It was a hard fought match that was fun to watch, and hopefully the girls learned a few things. Both teams played a great match and while the Bulldogs lost 1-2, it could have gone either way as both teams had numerous chances to score. Williams only goal was a great example to the girls as the striker who broke free had an open shot on goal, except for the keeper in front of him, but instead volleyed it to a teammate on the far post who passes the ball in for the score. Very unselfish.

So thanks again to Paula for suggesting we attend and for all the girls who came out to watch!
