Soccer Night

The U6 Soccer season continued tonight here in Adamstown, with the mighty Avalanche taking on the Navy Blue Team. Two differences about the game. First, Coach Chad was out of town, so coach Shelley stepped onto the pitch as acting head coach. Second, this was the Avalanche's first, and as far as I know only, night game.

Otherwise, it was a typical U6 soccer game, but worth photographing if for no other reason then the light is better at 6:30 PM then it is at 11:30 AM. So, here are two shots of Alex, either of which might make you think he knows what he is doing:

The Avalanche's U6 Season Continues

Today was about the 4th game for the U6 Avalanche. The battled the Dark Blue team whose name I don't know. For the first half, it was a good thing (for the Avalanche) that score is not kept for U6 soccer. Things turned around a bit in the second half, and the mighty Avalanche managed to score a few.

Of all the players on the team, Alex is one of them. He prefers playing defense, but will play offensively as well. He has mastered the finer skills of the game such as putting on his shin guard up-side-up and generally knowing which goal he is defending.
