september 4 1985 double overtime fuels royal win no one would dare light a match near the stouffville royals last tuesday night the minor bantam boys soccer squad sponsored by stouffville real estate fought double overtime in- flammed lungs and muscle spasms to thwart an ardent woodbridge club 21 in quar ter final playoff action the mercury undoubtedly hit the fever numbers in this contest and for a good reason both teams faced elimination c ies comment- do we straltjstcket oui er 3 are canadian soccer players tangled in a defensive mentality more specifically do youth coaches straitjacket their dribblers and cultivate their defenders breed ing an ancient attitude it is better to have a low scoring disciplined game than a wild shoot out and how many coaches effectively control the length of leash they place on exceptionally talented players and strike that elusive balance between raw instinct and pullback programming very tough questions indeed however when canadian soccer exemplified by the recent low scoring canadahonduras clash- is criti cized for its lack of striker power you can bet there will be some very tough answers and stouffvilles local soccer coaches have a lot to say i believe the best method of defence is attack but it is true most coaches today are afraid to get beat because they might lose their job you really see this fear at the international level so the emphasis has been taken off the attacking game coaches today look for big defenders first the strikers are secondary they say lets try and score one goal and defend it its killed the game its boring to watch and ive noticed the crowds are dropping off not because of the riots but because its boring tom morton president of the whitchurchstouffville soccer club hike iheopengame but i think canada is lacking in a proper soccer program we have no professional teams either so we must teach the kids the basics right from the beginning and most coaches are very defen sive minded harry davis coach of fame international i dont like the defensive game myself i play a more european style likethe uk 1 dont make 10 or 20 passes to move the ball down the field my team makes only three passes and we move the ball from our 18 yard line to theirs in canadian soccer there is a constant build up of passes and passes its boring just ask the referees who officiate these games its like watching pingpong but some of my guys can really motor we use long passes and a lot of speed up front my best method of defence is attack and i break the field into three areas the defence clears the ball the midfield sets up the play and the attackers take every chance they get to put the ball in the net martin johannessen coach of the royals soccer has changed quite a lot its become a mathematical game where it can become quite boring i too have a tendency not to let my girls take unneces sary chances with the ball but if were losing well then i tell them to go for everything they can get i think you have to go with what the players are i have a lot of big girls very strong in defence but i think north amer ican soccer has been a real failure at the professional level there are few canadians and the sport is still relatively new theres not the same kind of enthu siasm as in baseball or hockey parents don t seem to come out as much or understand the rules of the game y bill burch coach of junior girls but as the seconds ticked away and a scoreless first half dragged into another arduous second half endur- ance and stamina and maybe a little bit of luck de cided stouffvilles fortune momentum played the volatile creature with woodbridge jumping on the royal defenders early in the game a couple near goals on royal netminder lindley mussell provided ample warning for stouffville to get its act together the local boys stifled woodbridges attack for the remainder of the first half stouffvilles midfielders kept woodbridge frustrated with some fine passing down the spine and long balls down the wings however a rejuvenated woodbridge machine came out screaming in the final half the predominantly italian club broke the stale mate with an extremely lucky goal 15 minutes into the half and as the game matured that goal prom ised to become more of a burden with five minutes remain ing in regulation time the stouffville squadron turned on the royal juices and strik er jimmy murby drove home the equalizer and again the momentum shifted two 10minute overtime halves were called to break the 11 deadlock after 90 mi nutes of regular play could not decide a winner play ing on borrowed time not to mention breath both clubs looked exhausted but stub born neither side scored in the first 10 minutes that the players just couldnt run anymore made the final 600 seconds even more tortuous with most plays consisting of long drives to the strikers with the game threaten ing to go into postovertime penalty kicks the royals de cided to apply some second- effort pressure it worked jimmy murby put home the winner to cap a fouronone assault and end the agony in the latter 20 minutes of the regular game the other team was beat even at halftime my boys knew it was just a matter of time be fore we would equalize the game explained royal coach martin johannessen they woodbridge were just dropping right back their midfield was wide open so we just kept pour ing on the pressure

stingers win pair the hard way the stouffville stingers are hooked on comeback- itis the girls intermediate softball club ignited two re- markable come-from- behind play off victories last week in its hot pursuit of the 1985 league championship with a semifinal fever of 102 and a 70 deficit after two innings the stingers re grouped to dismantle zephyr 87 in extra innings early last week and if that wasnt enough to give stouffville manager ted lowery near pulmonary arrest his red and white machine upset archrival pefferlaw wednesday night 76 in the first of a double- knockout final after giving up a couple runs against zephyr early in the game stinger pitcher liz crittenden got the show er signal and candy brown came in for relief the pitcher change up effectively frustrated zephyrs swingers

the pefferlaw en counter the girls were given a post provincial championship victory ride around town after winning the ontario sophmore final august 11 and pefferlaw certainly could have used a couple hoses later that night to cool down stouffville trailing 63 in the bottom of the seventh against a sea soned team like pefferlaw looked like a definite loss for the stingers however the club quickly replenished its provincial reputation with a four run blast in the dying moments ferguson singled home brown to spark the com eback lowery belted a dou ble rbi to bring home fer guson and keith gold drove home lowery for the winner the stingers hope to de crown the 84 league champs sometime this week in game two of the final with the dr pepper and provincial championships locked up

into the sport hot knowing the rules- j they took a few high sticking penalties early in the season because they didnt know that if you raise your stick above your shoulder to slap down the ball youre automatically penalized but they learned fast there was some pushing and shoving in the last two games but this is a high pressure excellent team you get the odd temper but not a fight noboby dropped the gloves said england even the most effeminate critic might question whether the b52 bomber dynasty is and will be simply a one shot deal that has run its course that pretention can only be decided
