Beckham's Soccer Season

Becks played soccer on the 3/4 team again this year and had a great time with a few of his friends. He really gets into the game and is pretty aggressive, but he is never mean to the other players and even gave up possession of the ball once to help someone from another team who had tripped and fallen. He likes to play goalie and says "No one's going to get a ball past me!" He would throw himself on the ground to stop the ball even though he really didn't need to. All of our kids are so dramatic, just in different ways.
Beckham and Sam haven't figured out yet that they're on the same team - they are both good with the ball and if either one of them is playing forward they seem to have the ball 90% of the time, but when they were both playing forward at the same time they were pretty competitive with each other... looks like next year we'll have to work a little harder on passing!
Trey didn't want to play soccer this year so Becks got to enjoy all the glory and was lucky to have Carson's dad see his first game and my mom see his last. It was so much easier to just have one practice during the week and one game on Saturday, especially since a few of them overlapped with Carson's flag football games. Beckham is a fun kid and loves to play sports and be the center of attention!
