The Panthers took the field against the speedy Lightning team. And what a big field it was - did you know this is the same size field that the junior high kids play on?Before we started the game, an invisible ninja told us to "Stick 'em up!"
Then Aaron and Mitch read the team a bedtime story...
After we regained our composure, Mitch took shots from the team to get ready for the game.
A great big welcome to our newest member of the team - TJ! TJ jumped right in and stole the ball from the Lightning and gave it a big boot up the field!
The Panthers started off the game strong by getting the ball deep in Lightning territory while Matt calls out to Jamie for a clear shot.
Aaron got things started off with the first goal as Lawrence, JJ and Jace try to figure out which was better... the goal or the cartwheel!
Coach Mike multitasked in the game as he gave instructions (and got in a little cardio) as Aaron runs back to steal the ball from the lightning.
JJ played great today as he continuously ran down the ball, stole it and passed to his teammates. Sam got open for the pass as Ryan speeds back to assist.
Jace didn't want to miss out on the action.. so he jumped in and nailed in a sweet goal - nice teamwork on the play boys!
Coach Mike shifted some lines around to give all the boys a chance to play multiple positions. Mark and Derek seem to confer with Coach Mike's decisions.
Jace got open for another goal as Aaron dumped it in from the sideline. This is why you always hear the coaches yell "CENTER!"... it leads to some fun goals!
Lawrence dove into the game the second half and threw in two goals in short order... hey Leslie, keep the grapes for Saturday too!
