Soccer Boys


The boys both played soccer this year. T loved it, and S thought it was just okay. It's funny to see the difference of the two playing. Watching S play reminded me of when T was that age. They want to play, but after a few minutes they get tired, or bored, or distracted. Sometimes you see boys climbing the goal, wrestling, walking, or sitting. They don't mind if it's their turn to sit, and the best part of the game is when it's over and they get their treat. This was how the season went for S.

T had a very different season. He has really improved since he started playing and even since last year. He is much more aggressive in his playing. There was no walking or sitting on the field. Instead we saw good defense and lots of goals. Boys who didn't want to sit out, but did because they were good sports. T was on the Volcanoes and they went undefeated!! It was much more enjoyable to watch them actually play and to see how they've improved through the years. At the soccer recognition night they got t-shirts and had their picture taken for the newspaper. It was very fun to see how excited they were. Some of these boys have been playing on the same team for several years and they have all improved together! It was a great year! Go Volcanoes!!

Congrats on a great season. Arianna plays soccer also- we had a bit of a rough season because the teams were not even at all.
It was still a good lesson to keep trying your best though!
