TEAM HISTORY
Most of the Pride players started playing together in 2008. At the age of six many players came together to form an intramural team. I remember when they would trip over the ball, and bunch like grapes. They have had a lot of fun playing together for a long time, and they have come a long way. I also remember playing some of the girls who played for another intramural team. We always had good games, and we were always very competitive. Since the first day that I saw them play together I knew that they would be team mates and friends for a very long time. As the years went by we took some players to tournaments and they also became part of the team. We always did very good in tournaments, finishing firs in the Commack Tournament and were Finalists in the Massapequa Tournament. At the end of the 2011 spring season we decide to become a travel team. We had tryouts and 15 players made the team. Our 2010 season was very successful, we had a 7-1-1 record in SSI, finished first in the Commack tournament, and finished second in the Futsal Winter League. In 2011 we had a 7-1-1 record in SSI and were finalists in the Massapequa tournament. We have a great past and I strongly believe that we will have a very bright and successful future. I really believe in our team and the great potential that all our player have (read our team highlights below for more of our history).

Some of our favorite soccer quotes,
poems and sayings.
If you can believe it, the mind can achieve it.

Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently.

[Eleven] average [girls] playing as a [soccer] team will always beat [eleven super] stars playing as individuals." - Coach Jeff Brabant [Coach Jack]

The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.

Success is not a 'sometimes' thing. In other words, you don't do what is right once in awhile, but all the time. Success is a habit. Winning is a habit.
-Vincent Thomas Lombardi-
If you doubt you can accomplish something, then you can't accomplish it. You have to have confidence in your ability, and then be tough enough to follow through.

The will to win is important, but the will to prepare is vital.

MY GAME
Playedon concrete,
on asphalt, dirt, and rocks
On a field of grass
with a can
with a rock
with a beach ball,
and a soccer ball
Memories
Dreams
Friends
And much more,
At times frustrating
always challenging and Fun,
At five amazing
At fifteen a Dream
At twenty one disappointing,
But still Fun,
At thirty eight great,memories, dreams, friends and more FUN.
by -Coach Jack-
It's easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you're a winner, when you're number one. What you've got to have is faith and discipline when you are not yet a winner.
-Vince Lombardi-
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
-Anne Bradstreeet-
MOM'S POINT OF VIEW
I'm complaining and moaning,
Not another soccer game!!
I'm freezing, it's raining
I think that I'm insane, Oh look, she kicked it, she's smiling
It's really not so bad,
She's happy and shining,
She's healthy and I'm glad
She's passing, and learning
What team work is all about
I'm complaining but cheering
Here come the girls- watch out!!By -"one of the moms"-
Elaine Calatayud
It feels important to be a Hurricane. When I'm out on the

A wonderful realization will be the day you realize that you are unique in all the world. There is nothing that is an accident. You are a special combination for a purpose -and don't let them tell you otherwise, even if they tell you that purpose is an illusion. (Live an illusion if you have to.) You are that combination so that you can do what is essential for you to do. Don't ever believe that you have nothing to contribute. The world is an incredible unfulfilled tapestry. And only you can fulfill that tiny space that is yours.

-Larry Bird-
We should try never to let our happy frame of mind be disturbed. Whether we are suffering at present or have suffered in the past, there is no reason to be unhappy. If we can remedy it, why be unhappy? And if we cannot, what use is there in being depressed about it? That just adds more unhappiness and does no good at all.
-Dalai Lama-
Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man [or woman]; but sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks he can.
