Stryker's first soccer practice

Soccer season is here & Stryker is playing! We are participating in Gardendale Soccer Club. Stryker had his first practice Monday, August 26th. All practices will be held on Mondays at 6:30pm while games are played on Saturdays. Stryker impressed Coach Barber from the beginning. Our little guy impressed us even though we knew he had good hand eye coordination. Stryker was the quickest & scored lots of goals. After each goal he scored, his hands would go up & he would yell, "I win!" The parents were wonderful & the coach spent a lot of time with each player to work on specific skills. Snacks & drinks were provided at the end of practice. Stryker wanted to sit beside Coach Barber. Everyone loved his name & thought it was a perfect soccer name! Stryker can't wait to get real soccer cleats before next practice (he wore his baseball cleats - wanted to make sure he liked the game before spending the money). His team colors are orange, white, & black but the name is undecided currently. Ready for this year of soccer!

Stryker enjoyed having daddy, mom, baby Lake, Coco, & Fletch cheering him on during practice. After leaving practice, we enjoyed dinner & dessert at Dairy Queen.
