And the scoring title goes to.......

Another soccer season flew by but this time, we had two players. Colin played for the Missiles in the U8-9 league. With 5 goals in the regular season, Colin was the leading scorer on his team which only won 1 out of 7 games!!! Sidney played for the Stingers in his first season of U5-6 league and ended up scoring the most goals of his team with 6. Good thing we are not supposed to keep track of game scores at that age...
At the end of the season, Ladi and I organized an extra game for Colin's team. He had a breakthrough in this game and scored 4 goals and had two great saves for the 5 minutes he played goalie. Colin really comes out of his shell on the soccer field. His performance on the field will hopefully continue building his self confidence.
