A little boy playing soccer

Soccer season is here! How cute is this little spanky with his britches hanging around his ankles? I'm dying over how funny the little boys are. At the girls games in the past, every time some 

one trips, the game stops and all of the girls run over to help her up and see if she's ok. At Corbin's games, every 30 seconds or so, one of the boys will wrap their arms around the waist of another player (usually his own teammate) and take them down in a football tackle in order to get the ball. This results in a 4-6 boy dog pile nearly every time. It is so awesome and funny to watch. They're like puppies. 

Corbin loves to participate, but isn't aggressive about getting the ball like we thought he would be with his fearless personality. He happily runs along with the pack and only goes after the ball if it comes to him. When he gets it down to the goal, he freezes and instead of shooting, he puts his claw hands up in the air and makes tiger noises.   It kills Aaron.  I find it hysterical.  He's four, and playibg exactly the way four year olds play soccer. the other boys are the same way. One sat down mid field thus week and took a break while his dad hollered from the side lines. People, relax. this isn't the Olympics. Go get a snow cone and chill out.  Corbin does love diving into the dog piles when they happen though, so maybe we should get him into wrestling. I loved watching him play and Corbin had a good time. It's not his favorite thing, but he really enjoys it once he is there. 

Here is a pic of the coach trying to get his tigers to get up and not play soccer on all fours. It was so funny to watch and none of the tigers listened and played about 2 minutes of scrimmage this way. 

Goooooo Team Elite!!!
