G-O-A-L !

Saturday marked the end of the fall soccer season (wahoo! hello, sportless November) and a good season it was! Wind, snow, rain, and shine found us on multiple fields this year, usually by about 7:45 am.

Brayden's team entered Saturday with a 6-1 record, hoping to secure a final win. We quickly discovered it'd be an easy win, the other team down 2 players and our coach holding out 2 for good sportsman's sake, and after a few goals, he sent two of our players to the other team to make a game of it. It was the most colorful game we've played (our extras were a third color, plus goalies, refs, and a dog that decided to interrupt play for a moment) and a lighthearted win to end the season. Here's Brayden scoring one of his 3 goals--high and into the net:

Can't overlook the good lookin' ref:
GREAT season, Brayden!
As for Connor's undefeated team, it came down to an epic clash between White Knights and Green Dragons:
After a hard fought game...
...the Green Dragons bested our Knights. You'd never know it, though. Six-year old spirits are hard to crush.


All in all, we walked away with two 7-1 seasons! WAY TO GO, BOYS!!

I can't believe how big they look out their playing. And I do believe that you are a little bit prejudiced towards that ref!!! Congrats boys!!
