Soccer In The Rain!

Today was the first practice and game for Jack's soccer team - the Fever!  Jack has decided that he does NOT like this name and would "rather prefer" the name of his team last year, the Mustangs.  Oh well, sometimes we must endure that which we do not like. :)  An added bonus this year is that one of his good friends, Conrad, is on his team so this makes it WAY more fun to sort of pay attention to what's going on with the game. 

Today started bright and early with pouring rain but the YMCA was undeterred and soccer went on as scheduled.  What was to be quite an ordeal with an "opening ceremony" and such was thankfully shortened to just a quick practice and then a game.  It rained off and on the entire time which made most of the adults quite miserable, but at least the kids didn't seem to mind too much.  Of course, after everyone had pretty much wrapped it up and were heading out the sun came beaming through the clouds!

Go Fever!!
