3 days to showdown

In 3 days Sodium will play for the OPL State Championship. A spot they have been in 3 other times in the past 4 years. The first was against this very same team when they were LOSC. The second was FC Portland, the third ESUFC. History repeats itself and again you find yourself facing a formidable foe. Again you face a team you have met in the past and been victorious. Does this mean you can take this week of practice off? Does this mean you can coast through to victory? Quite the opposite. OSSA will come at you Saturday with a vengeance. They have something to prove. This weeks practices need to be more intense, more focused than ever before. You know OSSA's are. They will come out hungry and if we are unprepared then get ready to feel defeat. We have never taken this team for granted. We have never underestimated them. The matches between you two have always been battles to the finish. Expect nothing less on Saturday Sodium. Count on one another, trust.
80 minutes 18 girls giving 100% - this is the formula that will elevate you Sodium, to the OPL Championship.

Who will rise up? Who will lead the charge in this battle? Who will be the hero? Who will be there at the moment of greatness?

And when you take the field Saturday, amidst the cheering crowd and fans who love you, ask yourself these questions;

If not now, when? If not me, who?

There is no tomorrow for U15 THUSC Sodium for the day after you become U16. Do you want to leave behind a legacy? Do you want to leave the Mercury's, Iridium's and Onyx's a brass ring to shoot for?

Never Back Down. Never Give Up. Never Lose Faith.

From the sidelines at field 2 the faithful will be screaming; GO SODIUM!!!
