Nora and the rest of the Bears had their first soccer game on Saturday. In this league they don't keep score, but both teams had a good number of goals. Even our Bug, who had never played a real game before, scored her first goal. She also earned a "best defender" sticker from her coach. There are no goalies for this age group, but the kids take turns defending the goal from just outside the box. Nora did a great job. We were so proud of her. She stayed engaged in the game, and when she accidently kicked the ball in an opponent's face, she stopped playing to go check to see if he was OK. Most of the kids are younger than Nora, but size wise she fits right in. As you can see from the picture below, snack is very popular at half-time.
