Spring Soccer 2011

April ushered in a new soccer season . . . and, a new goalkeeper!!!


Hannah had so much fun during her first season of soccer (in the fall), that she decided to play again this Spring.  The Tigers had a great season, losing only one game early on.  Hannah, a defender through and through decided to try her hand (and feet) in the goal this season.  Though it makes me a nervous wreck (way too much pressure), she loves it.  And, she's good.  Understandably she let a couple of balls through; but, this girl showed no fear even diving on the ball at times!  We are proud of Hannah for being a team player, playing her hardest (most of the time-- there was some tooth wiggling and skipping-- not going to lie!), and demonstrating excellent sportsmanship.  We are also very proud of  Madeline and Emerson, who were very supportive sisters-- sitting through games and cheering for Hannah every Saturday morning in the hot sun.

Good photos! That first one of her clutching the ball is so cute. Sister support is great and they probably learned some of the game while watching and cheering.

Hannah looks like a little FL gator in those orange and blue colors...I'm just sayin'....ha!

Following in her mom's footsteps with Soccer! You should really speak to her coaches about those orange and blue uniforms. . . I'm thinking she'd look much better sporting garnet and gold ;)
