Soccer Season 2011

Soccer season in Calgary is pretty short. The weather this year brought us a lot of rain, some snow and really windy mornings. We did manage to get out there a few times though. The focus of this year was more of a skills practice than an actual game. As today was the last day though, they had the kids play a match. It was fun to watch! Kayden actually played a bit today so it was a good way to leave this years soccer season.

Now, I'm not sure if you can see this but Kayden is the one in the hat to the left of the picture. He has his arm out and is yelling Stop! I think it's a creative defensive strategy.
All the kids and some parents running in a group to try and get the ball.
In the skills portion of soccer, they usually play games to learn the skills. This one is follow the leader where you kick the ball and then stop and put a body part on the ball.

The super cute individual and team picture.

It feels like yesterday for me when we used to go to Andy's games - those were great times.
