My son's soccer team played their first game this morning. My beautiful wife is the assistant coach this year so it promised to be a fun morning. To top it off, they were playing the "other" team from their school. Last season's game against these two teams got pretty physical so I wasn't sure what to expect.
Our team ended up scoring 6 goals in the first 4 minutes and never looked back on their way to a 16-0 victory (if they kept score). My son played a great game and looked good out there. They play with goalies this year on a bigger field and coaches aren't allowed on the field during play, so there were a lot of new things to adapt to out there. Hopefully, they'll play some tougher competition in the coming weeks because the poor kids who played goalie and defense pretty much just stood there doing nothing. I think the other team crossed into our side of the field twice the whole game and didn't have a single shot on goal.
Good fun for the boys. Too bad they don't keep score or they could've implemented the mercy rule.
