last busy spring sports weekend

Saturday was the last day of spring soccer for Marcus and Cale (except for a make-up game for Marcus on Monday).  Their games were followed by a tee ball game for Ewan.  Lucky for us it was sunny and warm out, although Liam was upset about the amount of dew on the grass...

Marcus got to play goalie for this game.  He was super-excited for this chance.

Marcus also was able to play some offense.  I honestly can't remember if the team won or not.  I can tell you that during the make-up game, Marcus did score one of the two goals that helped his team to win 2-1.  He was very happy about that.

Cale actually played at the same time at a field not too far from Marcus.  So, at a break, we just moved our chairs over to Cale's game.  Cale played well-his usual aggresive self.  I told Andy that I was happy that Cale didn't get into a fight with another one of the players on his team for continually trying to steal the ball when Cale had it.  Seems like they still needed to work on sharing and passing a little.

 

You may not be able to tell, but this boy's face is very, very red from playing hard.

Last games=medals/trophies.  U8 (Cale) got a medal.  He told me that his team came in first in their division.  That sounds about right.  I can't remember his team loosing.

Marcus and his team.  They came in a respectable third in the U10 division.   Trophies all around.

 

On to Ewan's game, where I volun-told Marcus to go out and help with the team by playing catcher.

Ewan, up at bat.  He hit the ball both times-no need for the tee.

It was a long morning and I was glad when we pulled into the driveway.  Check one more thing off our spring list.  Ewan's games continue through the first week of June.
