First soccer games

We have now officially started our soccer season - the kids played their first games this weekend. Here is Adam's team getting ready to kick off.
Unfortunately they have changed the way the Under-6 division works. It used to be that the field was divided into two smaller fields with two 3 on 3 games going on at the same time. Now they have just the one field and it's 5 on 5, which means it's now "blob soccer". All 10 players run around after each other and hopefully someone is trying to kick the ball, sometimes in the right direction, sometimes not!! It is pretty entertaining at least!
Briana's game is a little more competitive, with goalies and actual positions they have to play. I guess they kicked bootie last week, but the team this week was TOUGH!! Here's Brie in the game with Bret looking on.
And the team huddle at the end, just reminding them that they tried hard even though they didn't win this time!! Some of them take it very personally! : ) Can you spot my little midget?
