Soccer 2016

The Tolbert Girls had a wonderful Fall soccer season this past September and October. This was Anna Kate's third season and Caroline's first! She just missed the age cut-off last year, so she felt like she had been waiting her whole life for this moment. 

Luke took them out a few times for "conditioning" before the season began.

I love how the big girls are looking at Eleanor in this picture. We told them all to put their foot up on their balls and the big girls were a little exasperated when Ellie said she couldn't do it!



Caroline was thrilled when practices began!





First soccer game!



One of the best parts of this season for Caroline is that her team name (suggested by another player and voted on by the team) was the "Bears." So people were cheering "Go Bears!" all season long! She always thought they were cheering for her!

 





She loved playing goalie the best!




She even played one game in the pouring down rain. But she never complained!

 

Her fans got soaking wet, though!



She loved the goalie position, but did really well running after the ball. She even scored a couple times!



She was really excited one afternoon when Ms. Rachel from church came to watch her play!


And of course some end-of-the-season team pictures!
Go Blue Cross Bears!





And her first trophy!



Anna Kate was thrilled to be playing again this season with one of her best friends, Paisley! Here they are with all of their siblings who always came to cheer them on!



With Coach Daddy!


Playing hard



Having fun with Payten and Paisley


Nothing's getting past these two! Well...not much, anyway :)


Throwing it in



And...team picture time! Go Green Cheetahs!


Daddy gave out trophies!


Sweet girls!
