Owen's first soccer game was on Saturday - we didn't know how well it would go, but keep our finger's crossed. He has 8 games this season - all on Saturday's, so we are pretty busy for the next two months.
Warming up with his good buddy before the game - it was a little cold because Fall decided to show up.
Warming up is so yesterday, playing with your jacket is was cooler.
Stretching before the game - attempting to get a circle is kind of rough at times.
Reach up high and touch the sky.
Now down low and touch your toes.
Playing a warm-up game to work on defending of "Keep Away".
There are seven children on Owen's team and they play either 5 on 5 or 4 on 4, so everyone on the team takes turns. Owen was on the bench the first quarter - they do 4 10 min quarters.
Finally in the game! Papa is the coach and the ref at the same time - he looks like he is in charge huh??!?!
Owen wasn't too into the game and spent all of his time no where near the ball.
Dancing at times.
Getting ready for a kick-in by the other team.
Owen was not very interested at all, but hopefully that will change over the course of the year. The boys lack of interest was annoying to the coach, but hopefully things will improve. Owen's team won - even thought they don't keep score - and in the end coach had to ask the team to lay off a little because the other team was crying. Chris claims that it was superior coaching - we will see.
