Rage Soccer Tournament

What a busy weekend this was going to be.  It was going to be full of soccer games for Reganne & I.  Dave, Rylee, and Ryder headed North for Trevor's wedding.

This was going to be the girls first game since November that they have played together.  First team up was against the Anasazi team from St George.  They were evenly match. 

Getting into the groove

I am ready!!!!
That kick missed the goal but took out the pole
and took the net down.
Welcoming a new teammate Addie.
They tied the game.
Said goodbye to Dave, Rylee, and Ryder we headed out for the next game.  They needed to carb load before the next game.  Reganne begged for Jimmy Johns.  I think we are ready for the next game.

On the job once again.
And again.
This game was really rough and not sure who put this team in the Bronze Bracket.  Reganne blocked 22 attempts and they score 4.  The whole game was played on that end of the field.  It was also getting cold and dark.  We were headed for a treat of FroYo, a movie, and a early night.

Does she look tired?
Nothing that a few selfies didn't fix.
Saturday's first game dawned really early at 7:30 for game time @ 8:00.  The girls were bundled up and ready to play.

Where did she go?
Dang!!! another busy day for our goalie
We lost again but they finally figured out defense and helped out the goalie.  Time for lunch and relax before the last game of the day at 2. Everyone will be in shorts or at least short sleeves.

Game time had arrived and so did the war paint.  They added red face paint for team work.  They demanded that Reganne needed to match them and painted her face for her.  Their goal was to keep playing as good as they did at the end of the last game.

The whistle blew and so did the flags.  The refs were really watching that everyone was playing nice.

Block that ball.

Help out our Keeper!!!
They lost another one but their defense played really well.  Reganne had 22 attempts this game and she gave up 2.  

Mom, why are you keeping track of this stuff?  Are you trying to make me feel better??  Yes!!!!

Later as we were relaxing with pizza and another movie.  Reganne informed me that she remembered why she loves soccer to much.  IT IS FUN!!!!

It's only a couple of weeks before the spring season starts.  The girls are going to be working on offense and most important scoring.
