AYSO SOCCER

Ashby practicing in our backyard before her 1st soccer practice. She was so excited to start playing soccer!Ashby's team is the Blue Thunderbolts. I remember loving these banners when I played AYSO! I'm so glad they still have these as part of the league.Ashby posing for a quick pic before the game. Her uniform is a little big! lol :)The team doing a cheer right before the game started. Go Thunderbolts!!Ashby and her team Strategizing right before kick-off. :)
She is in the U6 division. It is a lot of fun. They play 3 on 3 with no goalies. The games are only 30 minutes long. There is a lot of action and scoring. It is a blast to watch. Ashby in action during the game. Ashby saving a goal during the game. She kicked it right out of there. Go Ashby!Lining up to shake hands.
Ashby had a great 1st soccer game. She loved it. I know you are not supposed to keep score at this age but her team "technically" won 6-0. Ashby didn't get a goal this game though. Her team has some really good kids. We are excited for the season to get underway!!

So cute! At that age half the fun is the cheer before the game and the high fives afterward! She definitely has the cutest hair on the field! :)
