Outdoor Soccer Season Has Started

Well last night was the start of the outdoor girls soccer season. It was rain, rain rain. We were at a new field with little parking and many cars. We started out practicing on one field and the convener sent us all to the farthest field which he said was field number one. None of the fields are marked. We took the long walk over and after 15 minutes in the rain at this field they sent us back to the original field because it was field number one.

Being out there is like the start of summer for me. I remember when Louise first introduced us to the sport with my older daughter maybe 3 years ago and I recall not being excited about going. Now I look forward to soccer season especially the outdoor one. You meet so many interesting people, some are a little strange, some are nice and some are very loud.

Her coach this year is very nice and really intense. His wife and close friend also help with the coaching and they are really into it. The manager must have a soar throat today because she didn't stop yelling thought that hard rain for the entire hour. Even though they are all yelling the comments are always positive and the girls had a great time. That's all that matter to me.
It was a fun night out and I look forward to it for the rest of the summer.

    My youngest daughter started baseball when she was about 8 years old . Now after 6 kids of her own and living in three cities. She is still playing ball. She my have had 3 to 5 years off in the last thirty some odd years, due to been pregnant. She love baseball.
    Maybe you are starting a life long love for soccer in your girls. It is a great form of exercize, may keep her fit over the years.
