Ajda Zajc Scores Her First Goal in 34th Senior Match for Radomlje
What is the atmosphere like in the team after two consecutive convincing victories? Ajda Zajc admits that the girls are looking forward to the upcoming challenges: “The victories have greatly boosted our confidence, as they confirmed our efforts, and we believe we are on the right track. We feel more motivated and enthusiastic. We are eager to continue our successful streak and can’t wait for new challenges.”
The match against Gažon also marked a turning point for Ajda, as the central defender of the yellow team scored her first goal in the senior national championship. The same achievement was also accomplished by Barbara Pšeničnik and Taja Jakopič. “My first goal in the senior league means a lot to me. At every training session and every match, we must prove ourselves to the coaches, the club, our parents, and especially to ourselves that we deserve a place in the senior team. Scoring my first goal strengthens my confidence in myself and the entire team,” emphasizes the long-time club member, who has been defending the yellow colors since the 2016/17 season.
The yellow team has won three of their four opening matches. What does the future look like? “The goals for the rest of the season are clear: continue the winning streak, maintain motivation and playfulness, and most importantly, avoid injuries,” says the Slovenia youth representative.
The team is in its first games under the guidance of coach Matej Rožič Mavrič. How has she found working under the former national player? “It wasn’t easy at the beginning, as we transitioned to a new setup and different tactics. But now, each subsequent training session gets easier as we quickly adapt and collaborate excellently, which I like the most. I think the coach has created a good atmosphere in the team, which is also reflected in our matches,” adds the 17-year-old.
As already mentioned, Ajda is also looking forward to the upcoming challenges: “Every match requires high concentration and adherence to the coach’s instructions. We are aware that we are capable in tactical, physical, and technical aspects, and we can be even more competitive and prepared for demanding matches.“
