Soccer is Back! Fall Soccer Games

 Game 1 

Game 2

Soccer Coaching Retirement Weekend

 A final goodbye to soccer, really enjoyed getting them up to speed but now it's up to the staff to work on their development. 

Games 1 and 2 then Games 3 and 4 below 

Festival Tournament 2 Games in Iowa

 At the end of the season. we match up with some of the better teams in town and see how we match up 

This was game 1 and here is game 2. 

Game 7 and 8 with Soccer Coach Retirement Coming Soon

 

Game 7 was a tight one, with good defense on both sides of the ball. 

Game 8 had a great start with one of the triplets making a great pinkie toe touch and shot . . . all had good chances on goal. 

I've been coaching them for four years and it's bittersweet as we go to their Select tryouts this afternoon where they'll be evaluated by staff coaches. As a team coach, it looks like my last weekend is in Minnesota next week. It's bittersweet. 

Track and Field Meets 1 and 2

 And so sport #3 begins . . . a lot of fun with the Ankeny Track Club (ATC)

Meet #1

Meet #2

Game 6 was a Nail-biter in the beginning, then the floodgates opened

 Rianne was playing some back and forward, Brielle mostly played back and center mid, Teagan played forward, back, and goalie. Fun times . . . my last day coaching is coming up in a few weeks . . . they've outgrown the parent coach. 

Game 4 and Game 5 Spring 10U Season Marches Onward

It's crazy sometimes to realize these are a bunch of 3rd and 4th graders, it's starting to look a heck of a lot like the soccer on television. 

This is Game 4 against the toughest competition in the league 

This is Game 5 which was a real challenge, we were down 1 to nil early in the game but kept at it.

Game 3 - No easy games in this league!
