Saturday Soccer



How fun to be part of Saturday soccer.  It is a great tradition where kids come out and play each other.  They've changed a few things so that instead of being on a single team, the teams are divided each week.  The advantage of that provides equal ability levels to compete against each other.  After some warmups and drills, we usually play games.  But today was photo day - with the team picture of all the 4th and 5th graders being taken. (Of course, you have to add a silly picture too!)




To encourage the kids to get lots of action in the field, the coaching adults sometimes play goalie.  In this game, a last second shot got past Coach Woodward to secure victory for the other team.  I guess that the opposing team's goalie got one too many saves (pictured above).
