Game On!

Opening day of the Glebe Soccer League kicked off this afternoon and we knew two toddlers ready to take the pitch! Decked out in their turquoise blue oversized t-shirts, Logan and Isabelle were set to put the skills learned in soccer class to good use. Isabelle was sporting her new Adidas soccer cleats and brought both her soccer balls, one white with pink accents, the other pink with white accents! While Logan was slow to join the fray, Isabelle jumped right in, hoofing balls past her coaches left and right during practice. She stopped over to grab Logan and then after a quick stop for orange slices all around, the Blue Jays were ready for their first game! Not surprisingly, it was a whirlwind of activity with few kids knowing what to do, but Isabelle broke through and became a star. She hunted down the ball relentlessly and ripped 6 goals (no word of a lie!) past an unsuspecting and/or uninterested defence. Soon after it was time for water break and the group never really got back together to anything that looked like a game. Isabelle spent the rest of the time trying to protect her soccer balls and make sure other kids didn't play with them. Sharing skills need to be up to par with her soccer skills! All the time, Oliver loved watching the kids run around and spent plenty of his own time chasing soccer balls and even showing off some of his own moves. Looking forward to next week with nicer weather and a big match against Team Yellow!

She can bend it like Beckham!
