Despite my general incompetence our little team actually looked like they knew what they were doing, and Kenrick took to the field like a fish to water. Here he is (in blue, front and center) chasing down the ball for another shot on goal.
The teams are six-on-six with no goalie, and since only six of the nine kids on Kenrick's team showed up to brave the rain they all got a good workout. Time for a breather.
Kenrick played really well, but has some learning to do. One time he took the ball from one end of the field to the other. "Kenrick, you are supposed to be playing defense!"
"But Dad, I didn't see anyone to pass it to."
Dad has some learning to do as well, as I was graciously reminded by the high school girls soccer player/referee that the team that was scored on gets to kick the ball from center to start play again, not the scoring team! Oh. Guess I'd better find that rule book again.
