The boys had their last games of rec league soccer on Thursday. They’ll start back up in the spring.
Luke does really well, when he remembers to stay focused. He is easily distracted by airplanes, other kids he knows (Luke’s pretty popular), imaginary bad guys, and the uncontrollable urge to do the chicken dance on the field. He is very entertaining to watch though.
They both ended up on the lemon colored teams this year. Those super bright jerseys are really easy to find in the laundry basket.
Adam also played on a select soccer team this year. It kept us very busy. Between the two teams, Adam was playing or practicing four or five days each week.
All that hard work definitely paid off though. Adam has gotten a lot better over the past couple months.
He was in a tournament this weekend. They played three games. His team tied two of the games (the first game was one to one, with Adam scoring the lone goal for his team), and then unfortunately lost the third.
He’s got his last meeting for the select league on Friday. Then we’ll have a break from soccer for a while.
