Soccer

Isaac and Ethan joined soccer leagues this fall. They were excited about it because they got to play with kids from their elementary school. They both were lucky to have great coaches. Isaac's coach taught them a lot. Isaac really likes soccer. He and his friends play it at recess every chance they get. This is cool. Soccer is very fun to watch. Maybe the rest of the world is on to something with their love for soccer. Ethan had fun too, but he still thinks basketball is way better.

Here is Isac's team. All the kids either go to Cody or Bridgeview. They are in 3rd through 5th grade. His BFF Scottie is front row second from the right.

Here is Isaac playing goalie. He likes defender a lot, and is really good at bombing the ball away from his goal. Isaac improved tremendously over the season. It was his first time playing on a soccer team. The first game he maybe touched the ball twice. The second game Scott gave him an incentive if he kicked it 5 times. By the last game he was right in their dribbling and passing with the whole team. He did not make a goal yet, but he wants to play spring soccer and I am sure he will get one then. was so fun to watch!

Here is Ethan's team. They re so cute! Ethan's team were all 1st and 2nd graders from Cody. There were only 2 first graders on Ethan's team, Ethan and Clark. Ethan had the bright yellow shoes that everybody loved.

Ethan really improved over the season. He is a speedy little runner. He also needed some incentive to get a little more aggressive and go after the ball. After the second game we went out to Peachwave Frozen Yogurt because Ethan touched the ball 5 times (and we were very generous in counting the kicks). By the end of the season he was all over the field.
