Second Soccer Saturday

Last Saturday, Austin and Lauren each had their second soccer games. All Lauren's games are at 10 am. Here she is, kicking off. She got to kick off a lot, as did her teammates... The Purple Ponies were trampled by the Purple (actually Lavender) Stars.


But no one really keeps score. Each coach records how many goals, and who scored them, on a card, then turns that in to the lady in charge. Brian said he thinks they use those cards to divide up the players into teams the next year; so the kids are fairly evenly divided by skill.

Lauren was doing a lot of posing on the field! She is funny! She played well, and scored the first of the Ponies' goals. They ate orange wedges at half time. She said it was a long game! she was hot and sweaty, with rosy cheeks, when it was done. :)

At the end of the game, giving a cheer to the Purple Stars. Both teams do a cheer for their opponents.

Austin's game was at 11 am, which worked out nicely, since Lauren's ended about that time. He played hard! Those boys move fast! I just snap away, taking a lot of pictures, hoping some will turn out. The scene changes rapidly with these big boys!

Kicking it toward the goal...

He shoots...

And scores! WTG Austin!! Love how his teammate, Brandon is cheering. Yay!
