This year we hesitantly entered the world of Competition Soccer. Andrew really loves the game, but Brian and I just keep wishing it was like "when we were young." It used to be that everyone just played recreation ball, then tried out for school ball in Jr. High. Well now there are so many kids in competition ball that by the time Andrew hit 4th grade, there were only a handful of teams in Recreation ball -- and that was with 3rd/4th grade combined. So we decided to try out competition ball. The verdict is still out on whether this will continue...
Here is my good-looking soccer player in his uniform.
And below - a fun action shot....Andrew is on the right, looking like he's about to head the ball.
Eric opted to sit out the soccer season. He is obsessed with basketball right now and anxiously awaiting the season.
But Tanner is in his first season of soccer! He has a great coach and a couple buddies on the team. It is a hoot to watch the boys -- they are surprisingly good for only being 4 and 5 years old. Tanner asks almost every day if he has soccer. He loves it!
