We are about to wrap up our soccer season for the Fall - just one more game this Saturday! The boys had a great time. Jackson has learned so much more about the game, the positions, etc - but we need to work on his aggression on the field! Although I can't fault him since he was playing with 7 and 8 year olds who knew more about the game and were much bigger than he was! He scored one goal the first game, so YAY for that! Matthew played with the 4 and 5 year old teams and he played defense mostly. He also is not very aggressive, which sort of surprised us! He just loved being out there and kicking the ball away from the goal as the other team was trying to score. They don't use refs at his level, but his coach was great and taught them the basics of the game!
I'm not sure if they will play spring soccer or baseball - right now they are leaning towards baseball and playing it a lot outside! Jackson is getting pretty good with us pitching to him and Matthew is trying too - although he will definitely be in T-ball, not coach pitch. I think Jackson will be coach pitch, but I'm not 100 percent sure on that! Either way we are taking a winter break from sports- no flag football or basketball! Mama needs a break! :)
