Caleb is in the minors this year. Which means he is in the 8 through 10 age group and now has practice twice a week. He had his first game last Friday. It was awesome. His team won 2 to nothing. The nothing was thanks in part to my son, the amazing goalie! He goalied one quarter and during that time stopped four attempted goals. He also played midfield and forward during the game and was great but goalie is what he really excels at.
Darrell's first game was last Thursday. It was so much fun to watch! He is in Bambinos which is ages 3-5 and he practices once a week. Darrell scored the first goal of the game. It was so cute. He was forward and he had the ball. He was running down the field towards the other team's goal when he noticed none of the other kids where moving. When the coaches had put the little kids on there spot on the fields all the other kids thought they had to stay there. lol Darrell paused for a moment looked at the other kids, shrugged and kicked the ball in right past the goalie! All the parents had a great time laughing at this. Darrell made to more goals during the game. He also was put in as goalie for a bit to give the other kids a chance with the ball. For a lot of the kids this is their first year playing. With Darrell being five this is his third year of soccer. We thought of requesting that he be put in Pee Wees but he is so small for his age we thought he might get hurt. Even though he is one of the oldest kids on his team, the only child smaller than him is my friend's three year old daughter.
Faith is in Pee Wees this year after one year off. She decided soccer wasn't for her last year. Don't get me wrong she is pretty good its just with all that running and kicking there isn't much time for socializing. lol But this year her daddy will be home to watch them play. So Faith who loves her daddy decided she would play because she knows how much her daddy likes watching her play. It turns out she has been loving practice. She was really disappointed though because she had to miss her first game due to a nasty stomach virus that has been going around. So her first game, which is the second game of the season will be tonight.
Here is Darrell playing goalie. I was so excited while he was scoring goals I always forgot to take pictures. lol
Here is Caleb's team at the end of the game. Once again I was so excited about the game I didn't remember my camera was in my purse until the very end. I know it's sad. lol I promise to do better next time.
Here is a picture of Ella playing with a friend at Faith's practice. Sorry no pics of Faith she didn't want me taking her picture that day.
