Through the mud and the sand,
let’s go.

swivel all about,

From there it was [...]

I spent a great soccer afternoon yesterday at Swangard Stadium where the Vancouver Whitecaps hosted the Puerto Rico Islanders in a match that would determine the USL-1 champions. The whole day was just about perfect from the Whitecaps front office greeting guests at the gates on the way in and making everyone feel as if they were indeed part of the [...]

That was followed by the Division 1 Dewdney Coachmen playing the Peace Arch Selects. The late game over at Westview was a U-21 match with the very stong Poco [...]

Ok so I finally got these up. Lots of work getting high ISO shots to at least be presentable. I often wonder what it would be like to shoot under real lights where I am not struggling to get 1/500s at 6400 ISO.

The SFU men evened the years series with Trinity Western with a 4-1 win last night up at SFU. It was a good game with SFU just having a little more in the tank than TWU, winning loose balls and I thought controlling the mid field very well.
I used my new camera for the first [...]
