HI Guys
since this year is in its final days and football and futsal have a rest, here comes the financial
report.
With the quarterly fees from the regular player and the guestplayer contribution our club had a income of 115.400 Peso. For the xmass-party we receiced an contribution of 4.9oo Peso.
The takeover from 2006 was 1.562 Peso.
The spending in detail: 5.500 tournament part.fees, 31.200 Metrosport futsal, 15.162 new balls, 2.600 repair of goals, 7.720 tournament with the singaporeans, 21.037 for cluboutings, beer at meetings, 21.000 christmas-party, 3.619 gifts, 2.300 laundry of uniforms, 2.593 miscell.
Therefore our cash balance is 9.131 in our box.
Outstanding is only 1000 Peso and 700 Peso Xmass-party contrib.
The quarterly fee in 2008 will not increase and stay at 1.000 peso despite Metrosport increases its rate to 800 peso weekly for 1 hour.
Lately we played for 2 hours at Metrosport on Wednesdays. Since this, the agression in playing especially in the second hour got out of controll. Therefore we will have an meeting in january to discuss this matter.
At the end of 2007 we have 3o active player in the club.
Every regular player is invited to join this meeting and discuss the matters of 2008.
Merry Christmass to everybody and a happy new year.

MIZUNO CUP
Thanks to the players who represented XP CEBU in the "mens-open" at Mizuno cup last Sunday. Our team cruised true the group stage with 2 win and and draw to finish 1st in the group. In the round of the last 16 we held on to a goal-less 0:0 and won the penalties with ease.
At the 1/4 final came the end with an unlucky goal just 30 sec. before the final whistle. Despite this team never played together at a tournament they played well. It was composed of 5 iranians, 2 french, 1 english, 1 brazilian and 1 hungarian.
This brings me to the critics about the support of our regular players. instead of having 15 players we where only 10. from this 10 player only 8 where present at the start of the games. With this attitude of support we can forget to play in upcoming tournaments. Its also a shame that we where unable to bring a team for the 36 plus competition.
guys think about it.

MOALBOAL
Hi Guys,
In behalf of Tony i type our Moalboal Story..
Congratulations to those guys supporting the club and playing in Cebu's first Beach Soccer Tournament last weekend and brought home a trophy.
The team put on an awsome display in the qualifying league, winning all 5 games and running out as league winner with 15 points and 22:6 goals. There were so many positive performances that it would be unfair to name any single player. In the front line were scoring at will, our backs were marshalling their area and our goal keeper was commanding in the goalmouth.
So we went in to the semifinal with confidence; sure by this time we had a couple of "walking wounded", but the team had been playing well as a unit and it was an exciting game against San Roque. There were chances at both ends with shots on the bar and posts. So it was that as the final whistle went the score stood 2: 2 and the game moved in to penalties.
Everybody know what happend..as it happend always.. we lost the shootout as it seems to be a repetitive occurrence.
Going into the the match for the 3th place, were several bruised, injured and tired players who lifted there game for the last time and cruised to an 3:2 victory. The Tournament going to San Roque beating Queen City 1:0, scoring 12 sec. before the end of the match.
So what was our impressions ? we lost only again on penalties, that was heartbreaking but up to that point as a team we had played the most entertaining football of all competitors.
What we learned again from this tournament.. that we need a full team. Already only 9 player at the start after the first game we was down to 8 player. the 3th and 4th match we was only 7 player. Playing the semifinal shortly after our last league match with only 8 player, of course we was exhausted.
The event was well organized keeping to schedule, beeing well managed and above all lots of fun. This is something we need to support next year.
Congratulations to the team of San Roque and the organizer from Bon Bosco.

xp meeting
dear all,
first of all i must apologize for the long absence. after the manila tournament i had some severe health problems and couldn't play for a while and lately i am too busy with my ongoing construction to join the saturday soccer.
but obviously it is not only me who doesn't play regularly anymore. the attendance the last few weeks was very weak, not only on saturdays, but also on wednesdays at metro sports.
apparently 'xp soccer' experiences some internal and personal difficulties and we need the help of everyone to regroup or reorganize ourselves, in order to keep our footy games going.
therefore i call for a meeting this coming thursday, may 3, in 'cafe theatro' at 8.30 pm. can those who are still interested in playing soccer please come and speak up, so we can try to figure out what the problems are and how we can solve them.
if we cannot get ourselves together anymore, 'xp soccer' will soon be a fine soccer team of the past.
please all come and show your support for the club, otherwise we have no other choice than to dissolve 'xp soccer cebu' because of lack of team spirit.
see you there

UNBEATEN BUT UNLUCKY
hi guys
an exhausted manila squad reports back..after managing to be second in our group with one win and two draw we played a strong japanese team in the 1/4 final. we hold them to a 1:1 in regular time but lost again a penalty shoutout.. the japanese later cruised into the final after beating in the semi an totaly exhausted singapore team which knockedout in the quarter the big favorite team Bondi.
we had again great fun on the pitches of nomads and burgos, everything was well organized but what we learned from this tournament is that if you are not a COMPLETE team you win nothing.
we were down to 9 players, that meant only 2 subs and the matches are 24 min. long. only with 12 fit players you can reach anything in this strong competition. every team who is going there in the future should considers this fact.

Manila Write Up
This is the write up for the Manila tournament. For simplicity and speed I have used the copy/idea from our previous tournament with some slight changes where appropriate.
The XP Cebu International Soccer Club is well represented here at the Manila Nomads Tournament. We have twelve talented guys ready to step-up to the mark and take up the challenge of lifting the silverware. They are:
Horst: Quite simply the life blood of the team. This German is our President and our rock in defense. He uses his head when all around him are loosing there way, his passing is sublime, his vision amazing.
Holger: This German boy is 'Mr Reliable'. He has the strength to hold his ground in defence and the skill and determination to drive forward when the opportunity arrises. You can try and work your way around him but you are going to have to be good!
Franz: This guy has some great touches, I have seen him do some wonderful things with the ball. Again from the ‘fatherland’ this German wizard can slice the ball through any defense; don’t let that exterior of his fool you!
Otto: The last of our Germans. This guy is not only carrying a punch but he is also a magician on the pitch. Watch-out for his head and the way he dominates the goal mouth at set pieces this guy is bringing the steadiness to the ship that the team deserve.
Attila: The defeat of England in 1953 by the Hungarians heralded a complete re-think on how football was played in the UK and now this guy will be trying to do the same for this great tournament.
Riccardo: Italian flair and attitude prevalent from this fine footballing genius. This man can run defense or control midfield. A God to the girls and a leader on the field; Riccardo will be a thorn to any team.
Nicolas: You have to love this guy for all the passion that he brings to the game. He has silky skills and a finish to boot that would impress any footballing pundit. Give this guy space and regret your marking!
Flemming: The Dutch have truely landed with the 'Big Guy' of the team. I have seen Flemming unbeatable in the goal, a shot stopper supreme. But his talents don't just stop there, move him in to defense and he can equally hold his ground. He is the dude!
Panny: Many of our sporting legends are from Greek ancestry and this guy is no different. A legend within the XP team Panny brings the finest touch and finish to the footballing game that would be at home in any professional team. This guy is hot!
Conor: English brut strength in the defense and amazing fire in his belly moving forward. This guy does not take enemies; he does not take his game lightly. Conor is here to perform stop the opposition scoring and put the ball in the back of the net. His goal plan is simple destroy, destroy, destroy!
Tony: The second of the Englishmen; don’t blink because you will miss him! The engine of the team, never stationary, always busy; this guy will harass your defense will worry your midfield and outgun your forwards!
Simon: The last of the English this guy can play in goal, defence, midfield or attack! Nothing will phaze this man, he has the vision to win and the mentality to take the game to the opposition. Do not show weakness to this man he will show you no mercy!

Tony: The second of the Englishmen; don’t blink because you will miss him! The engine of the team, never stationary, always busy; this guy will harass your defense will worry your midfield and outgun your forwards!
Simon: The last of the English this guy can play in goal, defence, midfield or attack! Nothing will phaze this man, he has the vision to win and the mentality to take the game to the opposition. Do not show weakness to this man he will show you no mercy!

Hotelbooking Manila
hi guys
very soon we should agree where the team stay during the Manila Tournament. i was checking at the internet and i found a hotel which is reasonable and in a perfect location. its the Executive Plaza Hotel in Malate, its in Mabini Street, walking distance to LA Cafe, Adriatico Circele, Roxas Blvd. I Know the Hotel, its absolutly ok and it costs only 38 $ or 1860 peso if we book it via internet. i also found the Citadell in Hotel in Makati, it costs 32 $ per nigth and everybody know how lousy it is. beside of this the Executive Plaza is already close to Paranaque where the Normads Sportsclub is located. we would have only a short ride, not all the way from Makati.
Please everybody decide quick if he wants to stay there and how many nigths so that i can make a group booking via internet. Since we will start playing at noontime its ok if you arrive early saturday morning and stay only 1 nigth until sunday. but make shure that you there between 8 and 9 am on saturday morning. we will arrange a Van again to bring us to Normads and pick us up again.
Once again, decide it quick.
