Strikers Spring 2011


Our little man's first soccer picture!
Awww.. he's growing up!

Saturday, the Strikers had their final game of the Spring season.  They ended their season with 7 wins and 2 loses. The least aggressive player succeeded in scoring his first goal in the last 4 years, and the crowd went wild. This sweet, meek little boy turned into quite the aggressive player and finished the season out with 4 more assists on goal!
Our favorite soccer player scored 4 goals this season and assisted on 7.
This season was a tough one, but the boys growth and character shown through. They encountered dishonest refs, teams that cursed, and talked trash on the field. We are so proud of their stellar behavior, and upstanding behavior in the face of adversity.
Many of these pre-teens have grown up together and it has truly been fun watching them work their way through from age 4/5 to current 11/12.  Next season they will play on yet a bigger field and be stretched some more!
