Calling all soccer divas
The Twisted Sisters are gearing up for another season of WAWSL over-30 soccer. Our team is semi competitive and a good mix of all skill levels. We are looking for new players with either soccer experience (high school and above) or who are in good shape.
If you are a mom this is a great opportunity to get out with your kids on the weekend, spend time with other women and show the kids that mom can play to. If you are not a mom this is a great place to socialize, get some exercise and hang out with a great group of women.
The Fall 2007 season starts on Aug 25th and lasts for 10 weeks. We play on Saturdays.
We have a morning practice next Saturday at Lincoln Field, near to the monuments.
Our league is WAWSL - www.wawsl.org. If you check out the site you can see all the fields we play throughout DC and just over into Maryland.
If you are interested contact our team co-captain - Monica at MHubal_at_cnmcresearch.org

A Twisted Storm
Last night was our first indoor game at the very hot Fairfax Sportsplex. We had 10 players turn out which was great since we were all a little rusty. The substitutions were flying fast and furious. At one point Alli exhorted us all to play all out and remember we have a deep bench. We played very hard!
We went down scoring 4-7 against the Storm who were last seasons best team. At one point Jenn mentioned we held them scoreless for 16 minutes. That is alot in a fast moving indoor game.
Several new players were on the field for the first time and they did a great job moving the ball around the field. It is essential to get some of the kinks and jitters out of our system before we play outdoor later this month.

New clinic for women in Fairfax
