Hello everyone!
Will and Ben had their very first official soccer team games today. It was sooo exciting! Will was up and dressed in his uniform, shin-guards and cleats, ready to go with his soccer ball in hand at 6am…even though we didn’t have to leave to house until 8!
Attached are some photos from the games. Ben played offensive the first 3 quarters of the game, and defensive in the last quarter, and he was really great. I got some great photos of him running. He also had the wrong color socks, his team had black socks and he was the only one with blue socks (oops), so he is really easy to spot in the pics!
There are less pictures of Will’s game because he was playing defensive positions the last 3 quarters and wasn’t handling the ball very much at all. Will’s playing field was also MUCH larger than Ben’s, and it was hard to get any close up shots from where I was sitting, the ball seemed to spend a lot of time in the far opposite corner, far away from Will and where I was sitting, which didn’t make him very happy. He spent a lot of time “waiting” for the ball. However, he spent a lot of time in the game, played in all 4 quarters as well, and he played great defense! Enjoy the pictures!
Good job Ben!
