Time to start the tournament

   


   
   After two months training together and lots of work organizing the logistic details to play in the CSEN tournament, the moment has finally arrived. On Wednesday we will play our first match against Ludus 90. They have stolen our yellow socks but, for sure, they are not going to steal the glory and the victory we deserve!

   


   
   For the first match, the squad list is the following: 
  • Ieva Bloma
  • “Nutria” Cangròs i Alonso
  • Marilou Captain Stasi
  • Hanna Schebesta
  • Sanne Noyon
  • Sara “Hamster” Ti
  • Laia “Fox” Sanchez
  • Inken Bartels
  • Francesca Ford
  • Loredana Nunni
   
   It has been very tough for Jonathan to choose the team for the first match since only 10 players of the total of 24 can play in the same match. The squad was chosen on the basis of both football reasons as well as attendance at training sessions. Today we will realize if the t-shirts size will be a selection criteria as well!

   But it has been even tougher for him not to select himself for this first squad. After all these weeks we spent together in and outside the pitch (trainings, olives harvest, Fiorentina matches, pizza & sangria) he is thinking about shaving his legs and arms, letting his hair grow and practicing for having a high-pitched voice. Dears, be aware because he fits in both goalkeeper and player kit!
