We hadn't anticipated Eli playing spring soccer since we'd be down a man with Daddy coaching at the high school, but the youth league announced that spring teams would be the same as the fall leagues were, so we signed back up!
This guy was pumped for opening day! He was so excited about his new cleats and how they'd make him kick harder and run faster.
Warming up with Tyson. About half of his team played in the fall, and the other half was new.
For some reason, Eli has been really focused on defense and playing goalie (must take after Daddy on that one).
Even though they don't have goalies at this age, he takes off for the goal most of this time. He must be watching too many Under Armour commercials. Will you protect this house? I will. I will.
On the team with his buddy Abigail! It will be a said day when he moves up a league next year and she stays in U5.
Goooo Strikers!
Eli has just has much fun on the bench playing with his friends and downing his Gatorade, as he does actually playing the game. We come just as much for the snacks as we do for the game. : )
Here's to a season of no injuries, lots of goals, and red Gatorade-mustaches!
