Girls' Junior Varsity Soccer

Are you looking for a new extra-curricular activity to do here at Judge? Soccer might just be the perfect idea. I recently sat down with a soccer player, Shiona Smith. We talked about how she has enjoyed playing this sport so much.

"It was really fun to get to meet new people before coming to Judge, because on the first day of school I wasn't as nervous as I could have been because I knew a lot of the freshman already." Shiona replies. "It's a really fun sport and I encourage everyone and anyone to get involved." She has been playing soccer since she was just five years old and her favorite position is defense.

This year there is a new soccer coach. Shiona says that she just recently met him and is very excited to get to know him more out on the field. "This season, I am really looking forward to getting to know the new coach." Shiona says smiling. "I'm also looking forward to new training and conditioning."

"I would tell anyone to get involved in soccer. It's fun, it gets you moving." I can tell how excited Shiona is about this upcoming season. "I love getting to interact with the other players and the coaches. It's a great way to get to know new people."

Shiona's advice to future soccer players is, "Try your hardest and do your best, don't be put down by the fact that someone else is better than you." The season will be starting soon. If you would like information on how to get involved with the soccer team, please contact Wayne Voorhes.

Girls' JV Soccer Team prepares for the season ahead

Are you interested in playing on the girls' soccer team at Judge? Here is some information on how to get involved and how to be prepared for the season ahead. The girls' soccer team has attracted over one hundred players this year.

"I believe the team will do very well once again this year." Mr. Delporto said. "They may actually be more talented this year than last but time will tell." Mr. Delporto is the sports director here at Judge. I decided that he would be the perfect person to ask about the soccer team because he is in charge of that team and many others.

When asked about Coach Ngo, the coach for the girls' soccer team, Mr. Delporto had nothing but nice things to say about him. "In his first year, they won the state championship." He remarked. "He has coached at the club level for many years, as well." Coach Ngo was the assistant with the previous coach, Wayne Voorhes, for four years before taking over the team last year.

The soccer team is broken into "Squads". They are a mixture of varsity and junior varsity players in groups of 28 people. If you would like to get involved, contact Mr. Delporto or Coach Ngo.
