Soccer and Lacrosse

Isabelle first soccer and lacrosse games were this weekend.  The girls looked a little rusty at the soccer game, but the second half was much better than the first, so I think it's coming back to them.  Isabelle scored 2 goals!  I got a picture of the first one, but wasn't able to get the second one.

We all had our first experience with lacrosse this afternoon.  It's a hard game!  We could barely figure out what was going on.  Isabelle did great - she said a first she was a little lost, but after a few minutes, she was understanding it a lot more.  A game is much different than a practice.  They had 2 games, so by the second game, they looked tons better.  We all have a lot to learn!

 

The game starts (and after each goal) with kind of a jump ball.  I'm not sure what it's called.  The umps put the ball between their nets, then the girls are supposed to throw it in the air, and then they all go after it.  Isabelle got to do one of the jump balls.
