Don't be a ball hog
Listen to your coach
Your parents will embarrass you (especially when they high step down the sidelines high fiving all the parents after good plays) but it is only because they love you and they can't help themselves
Work hard, play hard
Practice
Trust your teammates
Be a good team player
Fine tune your personal skills and practices those things you don't like as much or aren't as good at
Be a good sport
Sometimes there are rainouts
Cheer on others
Clap when the other team scores
Always shake hands
If you score a goal thank your teammates for their support
Protect your goalie
Never be cocky
There is no crying in soccer (I am just kidding....)
Follow the rules
Take care of your injuries
Rest during halftime
Drink plenty of water
Sometimes the ref will make a bad call
Sometimes things aren't fair
Different parents and coaches have different rules and expectations
You my get knocked down, but try your best to get up
Give it your best shot
Congratulate the other team at the end of the game
Don't cheat
Never give up
It ain't over till the fat lady sings
Break a sweat
Play till you think you can't play anymore
But most of all ALWAYS have fun!!!!!

Jenn - I love this! It is perfect! I also love this blog. It lets me see into your thoughts - we never get to talk enough - kids, husbands, work, life, etc.....
Becca - you are amazing!
Well, this is fun. I am so bad about calling - I don't even have an excuse. I will watch this blog on Andrew's laptop -quickly becoming an item I covet! I have a couple of friends from work that do this too. Great! HI BECCA and BEN!
What a hoot! You can only imagine how my friends head down another aisle at the card store when they see me standing there opening every "sound" card and laughing. Can't wait to select and send the next one!
Love, Grammy
