Brenden, Adessa, and Carter played soccer this year. It was a fun season but crazy! They had games for about 2 weeks straight and with 3 playing it was hard to catch them all and get them where they needed to go without Craig's help. (He is a high school football coach) Luckily I had Grandma to help, and the coaches were willing to let my kiddos ride with them if out of town in Cowley. It all turned out well and I think all 3 of the kids had a good time. Carter scored one goal. He liked being the defensive player and liked hanging out by the goal even though they weren't suppose the have a goalie. He kicked so hard at the ball a few times he also fell down. His age group is crazy to watch, they just run around in a huddle trying to kick, kick, kick. Or wrestle! :)
Adessa played in the 2-3 grade group. This is her first year in the more organized league and they start teaching you the correct positions and PASSING! She did well. Her first game was interesting. They had been practicing on the smaller fields so when it was time to play and they were on the enormous field....they were shocked. Needless to say they were all out of shape and tired after the game. Plus it was hot...so she was tired, hot, and then went twisting on the swing at Brenden's game and lost her lunch. Poor girl. The weather cooled down for most of the other games which made it nice to watch and for the kids to play. She did well and missed scoring a few scores but inches!
Brenden also moved up and is now playing on the 4, 5, 6 grade team. He loves soccer and is improving more and more each game. I think he scored 4 goals this year...he may correct me after reading this. He goes full board and loves every minute of it. He also is getting good at looking up the field and passing it to his teammates. He is a good defender. He often played all 4 quarters and gave it his all. Our neighbor taught him how to kick a high ball and he loved it. All in all it was a great soccer season. We appreciate all those coaches who took time to teach our kids.
