robotman Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Well its Shelbyville vs. Columbia for the district tournament Championship of District 8AAA. Should be a good matchup since these were the 2 best teams in the district. The only bad part about it is that they both have to play District 7AAA and they have owned us for a while. Both of these teams need to step up big time to beat District 7AAA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robotman Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 ALL THE AWARDS WILL BE GIVEN OUT AFTER THE GAME ON WED NIGHT. Why is it that one district is so much better than the other. Is it enrollment, coaches, facilities what? Shelbyville has played Riverdale twice and it hasn't been close. What do they have that Shelbyville or Columbia doesn't? What can these teams do to pull off the upset? I had a guy come by my office today and say that it doesn't matter who wins the District 8AAA, they can't get out of the region. Comments?

One reason is that the other district has many Divison One Club players on it. Look at Riverdale. I believe it is the Smith girl is going to UTC. Shelbyville or Columbia has no players signed or committed. The difference between division one and two is tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If both teams are loaded with club players (like Riverdale and Siegel are and other teams around the state) than it's just a plain ole dog fight and makes for great games and great soccer.

MVM Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I think I read that somewhere Vandy I wish more Middle school and High school coaches would recommend club ball during the off season. Regardless of whether it's a D-3 team or a D-1 team. I know it's got to make their job as coaches easier knowing that your team can go straight into teaching tactics and not skills. Although I think "G" is the one to answner this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be started in the younger years and parents have to make that commitment. I know for a fact, it is very time consumng and expensive.

Tullahoma, Shelbyville and Columbia may have one or two, as the other distict has a roster full of club players and college prospects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
