The U19 Bullets team won the Gold Medal at the 2009 Alabama Sports Festival!
They defeated the Purple Pounders from Huntsville in a scorcher in Hoover on Sunday afternoon. Coach Darren Bailey's team finished regulation time at 2-2, then Captain Jacob Booth led his team through 2 five minute over times, and 2 five minute "golden goal" periods, and into the shootout mid afternoon with temperatures on the field in  the upper 90s. The Huntsville team missed their 5th shot from the spot, and Brandon Bridgewater   
found the net leaving the score at 4-5 Bullets! Well done guys!

Fields
         We haven't given up on getting our other field to replace what we lost when we had to leave JPK, but for now we are more concerned with restoring & improving our facilities at Grantswood. The wet weather took quite a toll on the shape of the fields.
         We have a number of projects we're working on, so we are trying to prioritize the time & money.
The city has agreed to let us use the funds that were budgeted for Grantswood for the improvements that we've outlined. Thanks to generous assistance from a special Irondale resident, the Club has purchased 160 tons of sand to smooth, fill, & top dress the fields. We've sprayed for weeds, non-bermuda grasses, and clover. The seed & fertilizer is out & we'll start to install a drainage system by the woods by field 1 with our Parks Dept's help in the next few weeks. We will have some money left over when we finish those projects and will consider installing more fencing by the school and the woods, but how much we can do will depend on the how much money is available. On paper it looks like we may be a couple of thousand dollars short of what we need. If you, or someone you know wants to donate toward the fence, please let us know ASAP. Thanks for your support.
