Soccer 2009 - Green Giants!

September 12th was Hunter's first soccer game of this season. It was a beautiful warm day and lucky for us his game was at 9:45am, so it was perfect outside. Our team consists of 5 boys from last years team plus 2 new boys. It's great to see how much they have progressed since last year - even while they've been playing baseball all summer! Our team is a force to be reckoned with, that's for sure. Of course, we have some great coaches and helpers which I feel really helps to round out the boys. They get a little different teaching style from each one, but this helps the boys overall. We've had 2 games so far, and our record is 2-0 (but we're not supposed to be keeping track... lol...). And I have to brag and say they've both been blowouts!

Hunter is really starting to get more coordinated with his feet and thinking fast. His passing and dribbling skills have really improved. Last weekend I got there just in time to see him dribble the ball all the way down the field and score on his own!

Needless to say, the games have been really fun. We have a great group of parents that cheer and encourage the boys. We couldn't have asked for a better team!
