Texas Soccer

Let's just say that they seem to take girls' soccer as seriously as they take football here in Texas.  Wow, lots of yelling and screaming .. and that's just the parents!  So we're in not in Bloomington anymore - no PCSL, no Coach Frank and no happy just to be outside when it's not freezing cold parents.

This is Texas!

There were enough girls for the Saturday game that 4 sat the bench at a time and were rotated in.  This didn't make Ellie happy at first.  She likes to play.  And yet there was a benefit to not playing the whole time.  When she did get in the game - she was fast, alert and used those 'fresh 'legs' to get the job done!

Her preference is defense and she played both midfield and back.  She was tired and rather pleased with her contribution.  Off to the pool and a play date at Kalayna's house.  Couldn't have had a more exhausted girl at the end of the day ...

Waiting for all the action to start

Ready to kick the ball ...

In uniform - they call themselves Pink Sprinkles!
