For those of you who may not know - Zach is our sports buff! He loves playing all things sport! He currently plays baseball, but we've never really signed him up for any other sport. He's been begging to play soccer for quite sometime. He's also been begging to play football. Most people who know me know that I LIVE for football - but there is something about having to sit back and watch your son play that makes me a bit hesitant. As for soccer - I'm NOT European, and the sport truly bores me. However, Zach has been working super hard in school, so I've relented and he's now playing indoor soccer for the Killer Bees! He had his first game on Saturday night. Here he is in his uniform.
And that little yellow speck? Yep - that's Zach playing goalie. He was stoked because that's the position he says he's best at. He played the first quarter as goalie. He stopped 5 attempts, but let 2 past. Not too bad for his first game! He was quite pooped at the end, but smiling and happy. And what was the first question out of his mouth on the ride home? Can I sign up for football too? Ahhh, no rest for the weary!
GO BEES!
oh man... here we go... we all knew it was just a matter of time until Zach was playing every single sport known to man... and was probably good at it too! Oddly, Chad was just about Zach's age, 8 or 9 when he LEFT soccer and began playing football. At least in pop warner football everyone on the team is approximately the same weight... so at least he's not being hit by a 300 lb monster! Good luck.. fun times to come....
