My cute soccer boy!

Soccer ended about a month ago, but I forgot to post these cute pictures. This year, Carver and some of his buddies, and his coach, changed leagues. We had been playing WESA soccer for three years, but changed to the YMCA this year. It was a "learning" season for sure. Lots of changes. One of the great changes was that John got to help coach Carver's team.

WESA soccer played 4 on 4, smaller fields, no goalies. Carver's team pretty much dominated the last season they played. They just worked together so well. We liked the format, but the league was unorganized. YMCA uses the big fields, more kids on the field, and goalies. It took this poor team a whole season to finally be able to compete with these other kids that were used to this format. We were losing pretty badly.

During one of our last few games, Carver decides to step it up a notch and makes a long drive with the ball, and he scores! I think the first point of the season! The team catches the spirit, and soon they are scoring too. It took a while for these kids, but they showed their true colors towards the end of the season. Below, Carver happy about his first point, and coach "DAD" in the back ground cheering him on.
