A couple of weeks ago Benjamin had his first soccer game with the Red Raptors! He is playing on a team through the Child Youth Services program so he's with other military kids. And he loves it! His coach does a good job at keeping the kids moving and interested in playing at practice. 
Keeping the kids (at least mine) attention span on game days is a little bit of a different story. But Benjamin was out on the field cheering on his team and spinning spidey webs (in true Spiderman fashion) throughout the game. He was having fun but not necessarily "into" the whole game. I would say that he was the number one cheerleader though... yelling "GOOOO RED RAPTORS!!!" over and over very loud and excitedly!
But as we saw during the recent basketball season he participated in, the kids' skill levels all improve as the season goes on.
They will have one practice and one game per week throughout the season. Last week, however, the game was cancelled due to rain. And it is very rainy here so we shall see how the season plays out!
Go Benjamin (#13)!!!! Goooo Red Raptors!!!!

Benjamin...Keep practicing hard! The harder you work the better you will be at game time.
Love you,
