Soccer

This last quarter, SAS offered a select U8 (under 8) soccer team.   After lots of discussion and persuasion, Amelia decided she would at least try.   It only took her about 10 min into the tryouts to realize this was something she could do.  A week later, she made the team (by number default.  Only 7 girls tied out).  

Since then, we have been a busy soccer family with practices and games.  Amelia doesn't seem to be fazed by the commitment and usually comes home from the team to play more in our yard.   Wade is in his parental happy zone and I don't mind seeing the other schools she is playing at.  Liam however, is waiting for his turn and spends the games asking when he can go home or play on the playground.

With each game she is finding her way around the field.  She loves being up front and made 4 goals the last games.  The team is also starting to get to know each other and form that team bond.  

This is just a start to her life of playing sports.
