Fall Soccer

Fall soccer is in full swing as it started back in September...and ends in about three more weeks!  Emory and Ellie are both playing for Creeks soccer again this season.  Emory is on a Premier team, which is a select travel team and Ellie is playing on a rec team with a great new group of girls. 

Ellie's team decided that their name should be the Gator Girls and they have the cutest mascot.  He's a bulldog and was just about 3 months old at the beginning of the season.
Ellie has been playing really well this season and came soooo close to scoring a goal in one of her games.  This is their first year playing on a much larger grass field and having a goalie so it's a little different from what she was used to.

Emory's team is off to a slow start with the wins this season but he's having fun and  we're hopeful that it'll all come together in their second season together that starts in January.   

Emory does have some really exciting soccer news to share...he tried out and made the soccer team at his middle school, Pacetti Bay.  Yea Emory!!!  The team is made up of 22 6th through 8th grade boys and the season starts in mid-November.  We're looking forward to cheering Emory and the entire Wildcat soccer team on to victory this year!
