So, pretty much everyone knows that this season was rough to say the least. Though Cole loved every minute of it, I can honestly say I DID NOT!!! Cole has a love and passion for soccer. He is either kicking a ball, or watching Fox Soccer Channel for the latest update. The kid lives & breathes soccer. Good thing because is love for the game is what got me through this last season. Long and short of it all.....we are finished with his U10 Academy season. His team did fairly well...they came in 3rd in the x-league standings. They were a little disappointed due to the fact that they had been first in the Fall, and were undefeated at the Presidents Cup Tournament. I must say that I loved every minute of watching him play, and am so thankful for the friendships he has made being on that team.
On May 4th, Cole has his first day of tryouts, with a second day planned for May 6th. Honestly, Cole and I both had our reservations about him playing for Impact next year, and were thinking of trying out for other teams. We didn't have a good coach experience, and it left a bad taste. Cole had an amazing tryout, and when we found out that his potential new coach was actually the guy who coached Uncle Dan's team back in the day, we both were sold that it was going to be a much better experience. We got the results on May 7th, and Cole made the Black U-11 team coached by Connie Martin. We were all so thrilled!! He made it on the best team Impact has for his age group....to Cole this is BIG TIME!!! So here's to another year of practices, games, and tournaments....I honestly can't wait. Oh and guess what.........I am the Team Manager for his team!! Wish me luck!!!
