Soccer Season

The kids finished their soccer season the second weekend in November.  Although we spent the majority of the season with me taking Clayton to his game and Jason taking Brinley to her game, which were at the same time, their last game was spaced out so we could watch both kids and take some pictures!

Clayton had an amazing first season! He was playing up an age division and he pretty much dominated the 5 years old as a 3 year old.  He really has great ball control and is will go after the ball at any cost.  He scored at least 7 goals a game and I think his game scoring high was 10 goals (we stopped counting that game). In fact, in his last game, the other coach asked for him to be taken off the field because he dominated her team and she wanted her kids to score some goals...ha ha!

this cracked me up, he concentrates so hard and makes the funniest faces
Scoring one of his many goals of the game
He was most excited to get his trophy after the game
 
Brinley finished her 3rd season out by scoring 2 goals in her last game.  Her age division has really improved with the girls playing positions, passing the ball and playing defense.  She averaged 1 goal a game.  The scores aren't very high now since the girls understand how to stop them from scoring now.

We have enjoyed having our Saturday mornings free of having to rush anywhere! The kids start basketball practice next week, so onto the next sport!
