Waters' Sports Update....

This week was the official opening of soccer season.  Instead of a double header on one day we get to spread it out over 2 days.  The girls were ready to play on Monday.  They were a little nervous playing the Galaxy again.  They are bigger and a little rougher than the girls are used to.  

The whistle blew and the game started.  Reganne was starting out as Left Defender and wasn't sure how that would work.

Defender?? How will I do?

Good catch to the keeper.
Defense was hard at work helping her out.

Aleaha got hurt so Reganne was in as Keeper.
Wearing her lucky sweatshirt.

The score I had down was 4 to 3.  Reganne told me that their first goal didn't count due to an off sides call.  The official score was a tie 3 to 3.  They were tired but had big smiles.  They had played their hearts out and did their best.

Early Saturday morning time for the second game.  It rained through the night and the fields were really soggy.  The officials were trying to decide what to do and where to play.  There is always the reserved field off to the side that has the good grass.  They found the keys and opened the gates.

Our opponents this game was from Mesquite where they grow them big and tough.  Our girls were really nervous to play due to their sizes.

Reganne once again playing Right Defender.
Wow!!! She has the foot to kick that ball away.

Where's the Keeper?
Reganne was struggling for possession of the ball.

Mesquite scored 3 goals in the first 15 minutes.  Time to switch out the Keeper.  Reganne stepped up and continued to take a beating.  They had 18 attempts on her with 3 goals scored.  The first one was a given due to the Ref not allowing her enough time to get set.  She had to work really hard the rest of the game.  This was a tough game we even had Premier players with us.  The score was 6 to 1.

No games this next week with the holiday.  Let's play and have some fun!!!!
