Fall Soccer

This fall only Hannah played soccer.  It was much less hectic with only one practice a week and one game on the weekend.  In third grade kids start playing competitive soccer, but we still wanted to play in a recreational league.  So part of her team switched to Leawood rec league (others went competitive or stopped playing altogether.)  Her old team won just about every game the played (by a lot), but her new team only won one game all season.  I asked her how she felt about it.  Hannah shrugged, "Eh.  I was tired of winning all the time.  It's nice to do something else."  I love this kid.  She always looks on the bright side.  They tied their last game and Hannah said,"This is great because both teams are happy!"  With a smaller team (and all of the best players playing competitive soccer), she got a lot of playing time.  She still likes playing defender the best.  I only took pictures of her last game and it was the only one that was cold enough to wear pants.
