Are You Ready for Some Futbol?

Soccer season is a great time of year. The weather is perfect and the games are action-packed.

This year I was the assistant coach for Leah's team again. We ended the year with zero wins and zero goals. The Sting did manage to hold a couple of teams to 3 goals. Given Leah's interest in soccer, we may be moving to her into swim.




Leah had a couple of great break-aways this year but after she shot the ball, she was back to looking for butterflies.




Jared on the other hand is fiercy competitive. If he is ever subbed out, he is immediately tailing his coach along the sidelines, always asking to go back in.





He played every position on his team this season, including one game at goalie when he'd been sick for 5 days beforehand. He excelled on defense but he also couldn't wait to get up front and score. He continues to be a leader and his coach noted how much he is liked by all of his teammates.
