Soccer every weekend

Okay so every weekend from early September to mid November we have soccer on Saturday.  This year we were able to support two sports on Saturday mornings.  Monkey's team color is red, so we showed our football pride as well.  Nebraska Huskers were well represented at each Fire Ants game. :)
Getting ready to throw the ball in to his other 3 team mates on the field.  Yes the teams were much smaller then last year. Only 5 were on Monkey's team, compared to Wiggles 9 team members.
Water break or 1/2 time can't remember.  But it was hot that day and he was drinking like there was no tomorrow.
Taking his turn out for about 5 mins so another teammate can play.  Now if you could see Daddy's shirt you would see it's a Nebraska shirt. :)
Go get it Bull Dog!  Yes, Monkey has a different nickname for soccer; Bull Dog.  Why, because he goes after the ball and doesn't look back.  He's not afraid to get into an altercation to get that ball too.  We've had several talks about keeping your arms in and to yourself.  He is one determined boy.  He has loved playing soccer this year time will only tell if he continues or if he goes on to play another sport.  Some have said he should go into POP WARNER football.  I'm not sure I'm ready for that to happen yet.  Though it would be cool in my opinion to play football.  Right now I'm happy with him playing soccer and so is he!
