One rule Jason and I decided on early in Brock's athletics was that we wanted him to only play one sport at a time. He could play different sports different seasons - or year round. But we didn't want over lap - we wanted to teach him commitment to a team and not missing a game of one team to go to another team.
For the last several years Brock has chosen to play flag football in the fall and soccer in the spring. Well, during the winter Jason and Brock decided that Brock was ready to try out for a competitive soccer team. This would be a year long commitment (fall and spring seasons). Brock was fine with that - but he wanted another season of flag football. So instead of soccer for the spring he played indoor flag football and then tried out for a soccer team in May. (He made the team and will start his first year of competitive soccer this fall - he is very excited).
He signed up with his good friend Cameron.
They had a GREAT season and a great time. They killed almost every team they played and ended the regular season only losing 1 game by 1 point in the last 2 seconds. They went to the play-offs and in the last championship game they played the team they had lost to. They ended up losing the game by 4 points. These pictures were taken right after the loss - which might explain the lack of smiles. Regardless -they had a great season and Brock had a few great touch-downs, some pick 6's, and was great at defense (his favorite). He loved playing with Cameron the most.
