Soccer GOAL!

We enrolled Zach in the city's kindergarten August soccer program.  It is basically kindergarten boys playing games twice a week for a month.  They really emphasize 'fun'....so much so there are no referee's in the games (the coaches act as them) and they don't keep a formal score (although every parent on our team keeps a mental score).  We are just over half way done with this program and in today's game....Zach scored his FIRST GOAL!

Jen was able to catch it all on her camera - sports mode rapid shot....

 We LOVE this one...Zach realized he just got his first goal!

Giving thumbs up to dad on the sidelines...

It was wonderful to see Zach get excited about getting a goal.  It has been a rough couple of games....he kept saying it was 'too hard' to get a goal....we told him it didn't matter if he got a goal, we wanted him to have fun and help his team mates out.  Now after getting his first goal, Zach feels more empowered and is even MORE EXCITED to play his next soccer game!

We took some team pictures today with our own cameras as well - the team named themselves the "sharks".
