WOSL Premier Report: August
London, Ontario – Where has the time gone? A question that any player, coach, executive, or manager might ask themselves as game nights have become cooler, the breeze sharpens, and the Western Ontario Soccer League shifts into its final month. For some teams, September is just another month. The fear of relegation is not on their minds and they can carry on with their work until the end of the season. For others, it has been a mediocre season. There may be no silverware, but there is also no anxiety of the drop and there are still points and division leapfrogging still to be had. At the tail end of the spectrum, there are always teams who will try to use September as their saving grace in order to salvage a season. The divisional average in games played sits at 14.6. There is not much time left.
A total of 24 matches were played in the month of August. Below are the month’s statistics.
The very best of luck to all teams in September.
