Go Red Runners! And Purple Panthers!

Buddy and Princess Sparkley both had soccer games Saturday (10/2). Princess Sparkley reminded me to bring the camera, but Buddy's game was first. And by the time I packed up all our stuff and moved to a different field for her game, I had forgotten all about taking pictures. So... next week, this will feature the Purple Panthers.

Buddy did great! He got to play both forward and defense and was a lot more confident about where to be. He seemed a little bit timid when it came to kicking the ball away from the other team headed toward him, but he stopped at least one goal attempt.

Princess Sparkley was also much improved in her game. Both kids played against teams that had at least one really good player that would get the ball, kick all the way down the field and outsmart the goalie (or just score, since Buddy's level doesn't have goalies). PS said after the game that she liked being a forward best.

Buddy is the kid in the pictures wearing a red shirt with no number (they didn't order enough) and red shorts.
