The 3rd ECCP Soccer Cup was held yesterday June 7th, 2009 at the Cebu International School in Pitos, Cebu City.
What a great tournament we had and an amazing send off for our very good friend Shawn. Representing ‘The Gustavian,’ our current team sponsors, it was a pleasure to see us scoring 20 goals over 7 matches and only conceding 1. With such a record it was obvious that we were going to walk away with the trophy.
OK, as coach I should have kept better records but after consultation this is how we believe the goals were spread:
Edwin x 6
Seb x 5
Panny x 4
Rodolphe x 3
Xavier x 2
There were many fine performances, indeed as a team the passing, support, enthusiasm and shooting was a joy to watch; from Warren in goal through the defense, midfield and forwards everybody contributed in the success of the team.
Panny, Edwin, Rodolphe and Xavier all made the tournaments ‘Dream 7’ but in reality we could have been nominated in every spot; the team was that good! For the records the team was:
Keeper – Warren
Defense – Jeremy, Shawn, Chris
Midfield – Rodolphe, Xavier, Eric, Mike, Panny
Strikers – Seb, Edwin
Coach – Tony
It was good to see the support for the team from other XP players and great to see the unity and fun running throughout everyone; back at the Tap Room for drinks it was evident we knew how to have a good time. Thanks for playing guys; it’s a pleasure being a part of the team and I know we can secure more trophies in the future.
Go XP Cebu
