GOOOAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

Soccer season just finished and WOW!  What a HUGE improvement from last year!  JGray and his buddy T are on the same team this fall, and the dads are coaching.  John and Coach G are proving to be quite the dynamic duo and the boys are exceeding expectations!  Surprisingly, the team is comprised mostly of kids that JGray knows from preschool.  We decided to bump the boys up to the next age category (6 year olds) even though they'd be playing against older kids.  We thought that having the dads coach would help ease the transition to "real" soccer.  They were prepared to get slaughtered but have been winning most of their games!  JGray has discovered a love for all things defense and is showing some serious hustle.  That boy can RUN!  He'll sprint from one end of the field to the other to try and get a ball.  He also made some great goals this season too, and we couldn't be prouder of his enthusiasm, positive attitude and great teamwork.  We think most of the team is going to try and be together again next season, so watch out for more rumbling from Team THUNDER!!!
