Sara was in a soccer tournament for her high school today. They ended up playing the final game against Carlton. Lost 3 -1
It was an interesting cheering game. Can’t yell “kill them” when one of my best friends is sitting behind me on the bleachers – her daughter playing on the other team. And most of the moms I know from Celtic soccer were there. Last weekend we were all cheering our daughters on together as they played on the same team. The pain of that loss was too fresh for us to wish a loss on anyone of the girls. But one team had to win.
Sara and another of her friends were not happy that anyone who wants to play can just join the team from their school – even if they have never played before. It showed when they changed players, pulling off two good defenders for two inexperienced ones. Two goals scored in a few minutes. A bit demoralizing for the girls who play competitively and would like to see their school win for a change.
Sara’s quote of the day ” It’s a Catholic thing. Can’t make any cuts just because they can’t play. Got to let them play cause God loves them all.”
