Soccer.. Carter style!!

This year is Carter's 1st year playing soccer.. what a treat! There is probably close to 40 little ones in the U-6 program.. that is a whole lot of energy!! When Owen played there may have been 20. It's so neat to watch the joy on Carter's face when he is out on the field.

I took some pictures of him last night.. It's hard to get good shots when he is playing at dusk.. the pictures come out so dark. His jersey # is 16

At a typical practice they will break up into 4 groups, have some drills to learn new skill.. they will do that for about a 1/2hour. Then they will divide into 8 groups(splitting the groups of 4 in half) and have mini scrimmages.. that is the interesting part. there are so many kids on the field that they are tripping over one another and they look like a swarm of bees with the ball being the honey pot..LOL!! Carter is a bit better than the rest, or at least I think so, because of watching Owen play for 4 years. At last nights scrimmage his team won. The score was 3-2.. Carter made all 3 goals!! awesome!! They don't officially keep score at this level but the kids sure do..LOL
