Vortex Host First-Ever Bantam Football Game
Steven Cheremyshynski Head Coach – Vegreville Football Association It was Saturday, September 14th, and a beautiful day for a football game. The Vortex Bantam Football team hosted our first-ever home game. Both players and coaches were overwhelmed with the community support and want to thank the fans for coming out to cheer on the team. It is nice to play at home in front of such a large crowd. The team had a slow start and fell quickly 13-0 to the St. Paul Bengals. We managed to settle some of the nerves and started to play better football all around. St. Paul is a very physical team and we had a hard time adjusting to this style of play. There were some key penalties throughout the game that hurt some of our drives,
limiting our scoring chances. Some of these penalties are silly errors that firstyear players make. Hopefully, as we get more experience, we will have fewer penalties. We did suffer some injuries throughout this game. The biggest downfall for this game was a weak performance tackling. Overall the coaching staff is pleased with the effort from the team despite losing 46-6. A first-year team will have games like this. We know where we have to go to be competitive in our league. The Vortex are heading out of town this Saturday, September 21 to play in Lloydminster. Lloydminster is currently ranked first in the Wheatland League and should be a contender for provincial play this year, so the team is looking forward to the challenge.
