The Strikers - Game 1

Yesterday was our first soccer game for the spring season. The first game is always the hardest because the kids aren't used to each other, and everyone's trying to get reacquainted with soccer and what to do. But surprisingly all of my kids played really well. In fact, Ben had his best soccer game ever I thought. Everyone was pretty focused and engaged. We're still in the age group where there isn't a winner or loser, and there are no official scores or standings. Yet somehow the kids always know who won and who lost. After the game all the kids told me we won 4 - 2. So I guess it was a good game for us.
