The Bobcats
N's soccer team, The Bobcats, also had their last game of the season today. Although they weren't playing to maintain an undefeated record, they brought much intensity to the game.
Last night at practice, the dads played the kids in order to teach them to be more aggressive and not allow others to intimidate them. Our tactic seemed to work because The Bobcats controlled the game from the opening whistle.
N has not played very well in his previous games. Today, he came out with all pistons firing. He had two clear shots on goal, but was denied by the goalie each time.
Our team managed managed to score two goals and that was enough to seal the victory and a season record of 5-2
After the game, the referee invited the kids to play a game. Both coaches were confused as the ref lined up the kids from each team in front of one of the goals. He knelt in the goal and had the kids take a shot on him. He allowed each kid to score a goal. KayEm and I thought it was a wonderful gesture and a fantastic way to end the season.
