Soccer Practice

Today was the first soccer practice Braden had with his new team, they are the Lees Summit Rockets. He LOVED it! He says that this is his game, and that this is SO much better than t-ball! I have to admit, he definitely seemed more in his element, but then again, he has been doing Happy Soccer Feet for two years now, so he knows his way around a soccer field and ball alot better than the way around a baseball field. He had fun, and I, naturally, had my camera to snap shots of this new experience for him :) Here are some pics from this evenings practice:

Braden told us on the way to practice that he was "serious" about this game, and by the looks of this picture, I would say he is absolutely serious about the game :)

They ran a scrimmage game, and here are the little guys going after the ball. Braden definitely uses his size to his advantage with this game, but the coaches don't seem to mind, they liked the aggressiveness.

I just love his facial expression in this picture, he is really concentrating and is planning on really kicking the heck out of that ball!

And it wouldn't be the same without one of these. All the koddos are six years old, Braden is the only one who hasn't officially turned six yet...next Monday...anyway, look at the size of him compared to the other kiddos. We are going to have to show his birth certificate in this league too - ha!
