3-20-11 Zoey, Look out World Cup 2028!!!
So Zoey had a couple of soccer games this weekend and while she is working on getting more involved in the flow of the game (she tends to run near the ball and the pack, but won't get in and scrap) - she did score her first goooooooaaaaaalllllllllll!!!!!! Additionally she played around 1/4 of the 2nd game in the goal and stopped 4 shots taken at her and is unscored upon in all the time that she has spent in goal. She seems to like it and is very good at being a goalie, throw-ins, and free kicks. I don't know if she has meant to, but she also has to lead the team in assists as she always ends up kicking it to a teammate. I am very proud of how well she has done as this is her first year and considering some of the other kids that I have seen out there - wandering the field as if they are a sheep who has been let loose from their pen or just tugging on either others or the fences during the game. I hope that she continues to enjoy it and do well.
