CAS Soccer 6

Cas Objectives:

  • Worked Collaboratively with Others- In this sport we are supposed to know how to work with each other as a team in order to be victorious. I really enjoyed working with others as it helped me understand that I can help people with certain aspects, and also learn a lot from them.
  • Shown perseverance and commitment in their activities- This objective was accomplished through the different areas of commitment that I was required to show during the different activities, which led to the improvement of my personal skills.
Today was the start of the UCB competition I believed that the team was prepared for the challenge of playing against another international school, but unfortunately I was mistaken. The disorganization continued, while the other team massacred us with a 7x1, in which I scored the only goal of the match. I noticed that there was still a lot of things that I had to improve on, and that although the team played very bad, we were still better than in the friendly match, meaning that we were on the way for better results. I learned that I was lacking on communication skills through the game, which I must work on during practices.

CAS Soccer 5

CAS Objectives:

  • Shown perseverance and commitment in their activities- This objective was accomplished through the different areas of commitment that I was required to show during the different activities, which led to the improvement of my personal skills.
  • Develop New Skills- In my first Soccer lesson, I was able to learn many new things, develop new skills, and improve the skills I already had. It was very good as it helped me improve in certain areas that I was not as good in.
Today we decided that the a improvement lesson was needed, as the friendly match clearly demonstrated a lack in skills and organization. The lesson started with a simple jog around the field in order to improve the cardio physique of the players that participated in the game, it was a challenge for me because I was exhausted from the previous match. After that we practiced some dribbling and shooting skills, due to the lack of opportunities during the game, this helped me improve in the areas that were limited during the friendly match. This lesson was very productive and helpful for our future games, as it showed to us what areas we needed to improve in order to have a better performance.

CAS Soccer 4

Cas Objectives:

  • Undertake New Challenges- I was able to fit the criteria to have the ability to meet challenges and an awareness of personal limitations, while correcting the mistakes committed during the activity.
  •     Increase their awareness of their own strengths and areas for growth- This was focused on the last objective as I found my personal limitations, while improving them throughout the activity.

This was our first match, a friendly, as Colegio Gran Bretana's football team in which I played as a starter striker, but was not able to score in the match. The team lost the first game by 5x0, as we were disorganized and incapable of creating goal opportunities. This game helped me understand that I had to work harder along with my teammates in order to improve for the UCB Tournament that will be coming up soon. The areas to improve are my cardio physique, as I was not able to play for the whole game, and my shooting skills, due to the position I play in.
