Grayson's First Soccer Game

Well today was officially the first game for the OLPH 1st and 2nd grade boys soccer team. We played St. Louis at their field and all the boys were really excited about playing. Some of the boys have never played soccer and pretty much all the boys have never played together on team so watching was very humorous this afternoon. With a score of 5 or 6 to nothing, us being the loser today, the boys still had lots of fun and were anxiously awaiting their snacks after the game.

Grayson was playing with some neighbor friends prior to the game today and claims he hurt his ankle and by the time the game started he was limping. He started the game anyway on the field, then went to the goalie position, and then went to the bench since he said he couldn't run! Chris has checked his leg out and can find nothing, but we iced him up and gave him some Motrin, too in hopes he can be on the field for tomorrow's game. Without Grayson, the poor boys have no subs!

Grant on the other hand was raring to get out on the field and play. We might could have used him for a sub!

Here are a few pics of todays game.
