Another Great Game!

Sept 16 vs Hamilton

This weekend we traveled down the QEW to face Hamilton. We started the game off well, gaining the majority of possessions over the ball in their half. We were passing and making forward runs, which ultimately resulted in our first goal where Christina G. scored off a PK by placing the ball into the corner. She also scored the second goal of the game due to a breakaway later in the quarter. Finally, in the last two-quarters of the game, we held our shape, stayed strong and prevented them from getting any scoring chances. In the end, the whistle was blown and we won the game 2-0.

Latest Game is a 1-1 Tie!

This evening was an important game for us in a back to back with NTSC. I feel that we had an intense and focused warm up leading into the game itself. This set us in a good mindset and I believe we were prepared for this important match. We played a good first quarter and had some good chances on goal. We managed to score on a rebound from a free kick in the box, and we did not let that leading goal slow down our focus and play. We held our play and lead until the middle of the second quarter when NTSC tied the game. I think we could have avoided that goal if our second effort to win the ball back was stronger, however the weather conditions made it tough for our defence and goalie to stop that goal. Nonetheless, their efforts were excellent. The third and forth quarters were both well fought and intense. We pressed the play and we managed to ignore the heavy rain. We had some good chances to score however we need to start capitalizing on our opportunities. As a team, we tried our best despite the weather/playing conditions, and the “noise” from the NTSC parents and players. We were aggressive, played smart, held more possession, and are ready for the rematch and a win against NTSC on Saturday!

Goodbye Graffiti™ proud to announce 2nd year of sponsorship of 2003 OPDL Girls

Goodbye Graffiti™ proud to announce 2nd year of sponsorship of 2003 OPDL Girls.  Our Sponsorship with the girls last year was a wonderful partnership and we were happy to sign up once again.  The girls are three games into the season and doing great.  We hope to be out on the sidelines cheering them on this year.

The game three report comes to us from Noemie:

This weekend we played Unionville. We lost 2-1 but we still played a good game. Our first two thirds we played quite well. As soon as we stepped in the field for the third third we kind of fell apart but came back for the last and finale third. Our movements on the ball and off the ball was amazing. We could’ve created more opportunities  to get more shots on net since we only had 7 shots and only 3 of those were on net. The defenders were strong at the back. My favourite play of the game was when Christina did an amazing corner kick and Cadence went for the header. She headed the ball but sadly it did not go in. Overall we had a good  and physical game hopefully we’ll start up again our winning streak next week let’s go stingers!

Proud Sponsor of TAGS 2016 in Coquitlam

Goodbye Graffiti™ is a proud sponsor the 2016 Anti-Graffiti Symposium held this year in Coquitlam BC.  Tags 2016 is brought to you by the BC Lower Mainland Graffiti Task Force planning team.  The event is comprised of police and civic staff who along with partners like Goodbye Graffiti™ share innovative ideas and success stories. 

Graffiti hurts residents and business owners in many different ways. Areas where graffiti is present show a general increase in crime rates and a subsequent decrease in property values. Furthermore, it fosters social withdrawal and intimidates people from walking in the area. As well, there is less sense of community, decreased use of public spaces, and increased fear amongst residents. For businesses, if people don’t feel safe in the area, it can also affect sales by driving potential customers to other areas where they feel more safe and comfortable. 

The clean-up costs are significant. The cost nationally is estimated at $1.4-billion per year. 

Goodbye Graffiti™ is proud to be a part of this event each year across the country.

Aurora Stingers – September 18th Another Win

Thank you so much for the amazing sponsorship!!!

This weekend we played against Richmond Hill for the second time, it was a pretty good game overall, we won 1-0. It was a hot day but ended up raining threw out our game. The first third of our game we didn’t play our best but played good enough to make sure no goals went in.  Our second third we played a lot better once again we didn’t score any goals and so didn’t Richmond hill but we improved on our passing and got many opportunities on net. Our last third we did really well moving up the field and not forcing a cross and playing back to our defense to create better chances on net. Our keeper Noemi made some unbelievable saves. In the last ten minutes of the game I won the ball in the middle of the field and went down the wing to see Gabrielle open in the box and crossed the ball right to her to score the winning goal!   That was my favorite play of the game. We all had so much fun! In conclusion it was a good game!
