Join us for the first SBDM meeting of the year!

Thursday, September 25 at 6 pm in the JL Long Library. 

Please complete this form if you are interested. 

All are welcome!

J.L. Long's co-ed 6th grade soccer team 

is making some great progress as each game progresses.  In our first game our defense was ferocious on both sides where we went scoreless until the last 8 minutes of the game.  Then, we scored first.  We got a hand ball in the box on the other side and the other team got the penalty kick.  We tied 1-1.

 

This past week, we worked on formations, passing and staying in positions and the practice showed on the field this past Saturday where the Bucs dominated the field and came up with a solid win of 6-2!
