The Soccer Season

Soccer was fun and exciting, but also time consuming (every Tuesday evening and Saturday morning for the last 10 weeks were spent up at church for soccer)!

The season came to an end this weekend!
Jackson and his soccer team.
Jackson did a great job for his first time playing soccer. We need to get him a little more aggressive on offense, he would always run back for defense. He said he enjoyed playing and didn't want anyone to score on them!
He loves his trophy, Lincoln too! 
I'm glad we let him play Upwards. It is a great program that is centered on Christ and applying faith principles to life and soccer. Brian did a great job as coach too!

First Soccer Game

After two weeks of practice, it was finally game day! 
We weren't expecting much in terms of actually playing and scoring after what we saw at practice. However, team New Zealand surprised us! Coach Brian prepared them well:)
They play 4 on 4 with no goalie. The coaches are on the field coaching them.
Jackson scored 2 goals. I happened to catch one on video.


I am most proud that he tried his hardest and didn't cry. 
I think it will be a fun season, and I'm excited to watch his get better!
