Soccer Season

Soccer season is over. I think everyone had a great season and all will return next year.  They will be joined by Anna who for the first time clearly realized that "everyone else is playing but me".  I should have signed her up, but she will be joining the ranks of participation with Swimming lessons next week and basketball in January!

 Carolyn played on a team with 5th -7th grade girls.  That is quite a range of ages (and sizes), but it worked out ok!

Joel played with 3rd and 4th grade boys and several had quite a bit of experience.  Quite a change from last year when he was the only 2nd grader on a 1st and 2nd grade team and the only kid who had played before!  It was fun this year, because a boy from my religious education class was on Joel's team, so it was fun to cheer on another player I knew well.

Matthew has been on the same team since we moved here. His coach is great and during one of the first games he scored his first goal in a couple of years.  It was awesome!  Last year they were the "young" team in the league and this year they were better placed with some older boys on their team and more equally aged competition.
