Grayson Plays Soccer

That's right, Grayson is 3 years old now and that means that the City of Frisco says he's ready to play soccer! Haha, just kidding, more like ALL the parents who live in Frisco think their 3 y.o. should play soccer. And heaven forbid we be the only ones who don't play! :)

So, we joined the Frisco Soccer Association and Grayson was assigned to the Sharks! I'm just going to enjoy this time where they are "assigned"  and don't have to try out since G is still more interested in running around the opposite side of the field pretending to be an airplane while his teammates are playing soccer. :)

But he's getting there! We'll take the nice camera out when there is actually motion on the field (ha!) but for now, these phone pics will have to do....

Ready for his first soccer practice - shinguards and cleats on my baby!

Running drills

Coach needed the Dads to help. It's like herding cats out there!

Grayson was Team Captain for his second game

#8 standing where he was told (which he took so literal that I don't think he left that spot!)

Thank goodness the coaches get to stay on the field throughout the game. They are needed!

Piper had an 8am game too so we got to say Hi!

We are really proud of what Grayson has already learned. Some basic principles of soccer, yes. But mostly that he needs to listen to his coach, respect for others and the commitment that he made to his team, even when he doesn't want to go. ;)
