A Win!

After two months of practice and games, Benny's team enjoyed their first win of the season last night.

The kids played very hard and very smart.  And Benny stopped about a million goals!

The coach singled him out after the game for doing such a GOOD JOB.

Yey!!!

I am so impressed about how unafraid Benny is.  He runs and jumps on that ball amidst a flurry of hard-kicking, agressive kids.  Imagine all those feet aimed at your face?  But he just GOES FOR IT.  He's a good kicker and thrower, too.





By the end of the game, the coach's had screamed themselves hoarse, and the parents were biting their nails, watching the time and praying the ref would blow that whistle and end the game while the kids were ahead!!  And they did---the final score was three to one.

The kids have worked hard this year and it was great to see them so happy after winning a game.

Three more games to go and then we wrap it up until Spring.  That is, unless Benny is selected for the Allstar team, at which point we'll have a few more practices and at least one more game.

Way to go Benny and the Bobcats!!
