Hotshots 2 finished with a record of 2 wins and 2 ties while Hotshots 1 finished with 1 win, 2 ties and 1 loss. Very proud of all of our players who competed very hard against the other teams in the tournament as well as our own.
Thanks,

After last weeks' win over Golden Ears 3-0, and three straight shutouts by Sarah Johnson and Chelsea Jewel the U-18 Sting are top of the U-18 Metro league. Sting play this Saturday in Victoria without a number of players, so it should be a challenge as they defeated Victoria 2-0 the first time earlier this season.
They finish off the schedule prior to the Christmas break at home to Vancouver United. Game time is 2:00 at Delsom Park on December 13th. We would love to see all the young ladies come out to support us.
Thanks,
Wayne Trafton

Good Job SurDel Thunder!

Thank you coaches Gary, Patrick and Rick. Go Inferno!
Surdel Sting U-18 went through the round robin of the Coquitlam Labour Day Tournament undefeated, but fell short 1-0 in the final to Burnaby United in a well played game. Our Sting girls are looking forward to representing SurDel in the Girls Metro Soccer League for the last time this year at U-18.

The entire team played excellently and combined with the teams winning of the Coastal Cup this year has made for a season that coaches Rusty, Dorian, and Doug and manager Lisa are very proud of. Congratulations to the girls for their hard work and great efforts!

Led by keeper Aimee Flemmer, they won the next three elimination games by a combined score of 13-1. Coached by local soccer legend PJ O'Neil with the assistance from Emma Frew, the girls have really responded to the challenge of a grueling practice and off-field conditioning schedule.
Congratulations go out to the SurDel Inferno who narrowly lost a 2-1 battle with the Ladner Vipers for the U12 Red South District Cup this weekend. A large crowd was on hand at Dennis Elsom turf to watch the girls play one of their best games of the year. Well done ladies - keep up the hard work!

The U17 Surdel Sting hosted Vancouver at Delsom park on November 16. Surdel started the first half with a lot of pressure on a Vancouver squad that was somewhat back on their heels. The pressure resulted in 3 balls of the crossbar and one off the goalpost but none of the shots found the back of the net. The Vancouver keeper made several spectacular saves to keep the score 0-0 at the half. In the second half the Sting started building chances through the midfield which resulted in several corner kicks. On one of the corner kicks Kelsey Taylor drove the ball into the area and in the ensuing play a handball was called. Lindsey Briggs made no mistake on the penalty kick putting the ball low and into the corner.
The Sting were defeated by Coquitlam November 2 when the Silence scored a winning goal late in the second half to win the game 3-2. In the second game of back to back games held the following week in Coquitlam the Sting returned the favour going up 2 goals and held on to win 2-1. In their third game in nine days the Sting hosted Victoria in a physical match showing improved ball movement and utilizing effective passing. The sting managed to build several chances on net and were finally rewarded when Abbi Ayers delivered a perfect cross into the area that Nicole Gibbons headed past a surprised goalkeeper. Despite increased pressure from Victoria the Sting defence maintained their composure and shut down the attack. Final score 1-0.
