"we're not keeping score"



The Deerlake Blazer's had their first soccer game against the Astoria Hobbits on Saturday. It's been awhile since I've seen anything as funny as this. Twelve 3 and 4-year olds running around the field while their parents make a spectacle of themselves, yelling and cheering from the sidelines. I wish I would have counted the number of times I heard a parent yell, "Other way!!!!" It was HOT with a capital "H", so we're looking forward to an earlier game next week.

Logan, in fact, scored the first goal of the game...for the other team, but Coach Daddy (and everyone else from the Allison/Coddington clan along the sidelines) was still proud. No score was kept since it's all just for fun at this age (final was 3-3, including Logan's score for the Hobbits, so really we probably should have won!), but we played very well.
