In light of the negative posts about field conditions, player sportsmanship, punches being thrown or not, etc, I wanted to pass along some comments by my young daughter.
She said her favorite team to play is Houma because of their sportsmanship. She said they are nice to us no matter who wins. They play hard but never dirty.
She said the coach looks you I the eyes when we were shaking hands. She also said that when he and the team said good game,they meant it.
She said the parents were never rude and seemed concerned even when one of our players was hurt.
I concur with all her observations. I know this year when we played there, the coach greeted us and told him to let him know if we needed anything. He seemed like a genuine guy.
I just wanted to pass this along on hoping someone affiliated with the club would see this and pass it on. This is not to knock any of our other opponents but Houma has just stood out.

Well played to Houma. The good things rarely get mentioned in these threads. Keep up the great work. We should all remember that although this is competitive soccer (regardless of level), we must shape the players to be strong in character.
