Crossover Middle School Team VS Hobe Sound

At 2 pm on Sunday, November 7 at Gifford Middle School, the Crossover Middle School Team scrimmaged with a team from Hobe Sound.  Many parents, friends,  Crossover staff, and volunteers were present to support our players. This game presented a tough challenge. According to Coach Antoine, “this experience served as a reminder that player development must take precedence over the need to win all of the time. We must continue giving Crossover players an opportunity to gain experience, and these types of games not only provide motivation to play but also, to improve team strategies. Overall, it was a good opportunity and learning experience for both teams.”
