For the winter season, I decided to play with older girls at Montreal Centre U11 D1 team.
It was a great opportunity to learn and improve my skills with more experienced girls. It really pushed me to improve my game.
I knew the girls would be stronger, faster and more physical. I prepared myself mentally and physically by working on my technical skills and doing strength training.
In the end, the experience was more than positive. I was able to contribute offensively to the team and made some good friends along the way. It allowed me to widen my social circle and forge links within the soccer community.
I learned from the amazing coaching staff at Montreal Centre about their experiences, strategies and tactics. It has helped me become a smarter and more strategic player.
While I'll be rejoining CS MRO for the summer season, I will always have a place in my heart for the coaching staff and girls at Montreal Centre.
