Soccer (last weekend)

This is out of order in that soccer was before the bread baking, but I thought I would catch everyone up on how it went.

Soccer starts with Lauren's game at 9:10.  Her team is an all girls team (wasn't intended to be, just ended up that way) and none of them have played club soccer before.  That makes for a few disasters to start with, and a very steep learning curve.  This week was wet and cold, and 2 of the girls were not keen to join in after watching a younger sibling play, and getting cold and wet doing so.  That meant that we only had 4 players when we needed 5.  The other team loaned us a player, and even with that bit of help, we were soundly beaten.  Score 9(?)-1 (lost count)

Braden's game was at Greenhithe at 10am, meaning with Daryl away, I had to call on Nana and Poppa to take him to his game.  So, they had the privilege of standing in the cold rain, watching him play.  I believe he played well.  Score 2-2.

Kyla's game was at 11am at Huapai.  So far this season, her team has lost both their games, but this week was quite different.  They played well, and were only 1 point down at half time.  Nana and Poppa arrived in time for the 2nd half, and were there to see Kyla score a goal to make it 3-3.  Later in the game she scored another goal to make the final score 5-3!  A fantastic result, and a very happy team.
