Allie started her 4th season of soccer this fall. She has become quite the little player and really enjoys playing. This season we decided to switch to the YMCA in Lewisville instead of Coppell. Jarod was asked to coach because they were having a hard time finding coaches. He had never wanted to do that just because he had never played soccer and wasn't sure what to teach them...BUT, he was a fantastic coach! He taught them to know each other and how to be a supportive teammate. This was the first season that Allie's team were connected and got along so well. The parents were great too! Only Allie and 1 other girl had played before, but you would have never known. Team Unicorns were undefeated for the season. Allie average 4 goals a game and sometimes more...she is super fast on the field. I am not sure where her speed comes from, but she can fly down the field and outrun just about everyone.
We have decided for the spring season, to switch leagues. The YMCA is not very competitive and some of the teams Allie played against were younger (which explains some of the wins) and it wasn't fair to either team. One team was so upset, that little boys were crying because these older girls were whipping them. It was heartbreaking. Jarod did such a great job, that we are trying to keep the team together in the new league!
