Brayden got to be a captain. He also scored the first goal for his team. Well, we count it as a score, there was a mass of kids at the goal and when he kicked it hit the post and sort of rolled in, but it was very exciting! He also played goalie for a little while. He did get scored on, but by one of his own team members so we're really not going to count that either!
I have to remind his coach to be very literal with the boy. When he was on defense the coach asked him to scoot up a little and Brayden happily obliged...moving about 4cm. After the coach asked him several times totaling about 3 inches he finally pointed to exactly where he wanted him to stand. And stand he did for the rest of the quarter. Unfortunately, the coach forgot to tell Brayden that he could still go to the ball anywhere on that half of the field and didn't have to wait for the ball to come directly to him. If the ball came to him then he would kick it and then go back to standing in that spot looking very proud of himself for that contribution.
Kent didn't get a chance to go to the game so when he asked Brayden how the game was his response was, "Great! I gotta snack!". Of course, THAT was the highlight! Looking forward to watching him the rest of the season. They're so cute right now.
Warming up.
Captains
Of course Miss Masyn was there to cheer him on.
Goalie! He is currently growling at the other team...nice.
On the run!
After uploading these pictures I've decided that I definately need to get a much better camera if he's going to continue playing sports. So if anyone is interested in contributing to my "Better Camera Fund" let me know! Haha!
