Quick Soccer Trip!

Calli and the Snow Canyon Girls Soccer Team had a couple out of town Pre-season games over the weekend. On Friday they played Alta and on Saturday they played Juan Diego. Both teams are great teams. Alta is a 5A team that has won the State Title in their division like 8 times in a row and Juan Diego is a school that is in our division and a great team as well. We usually play them every year during the play-offs.

Friday morning at 7:00am the team met at the school and loaded on the bus. 

Calli loves these trips and has so much fun. It's such a great way for these girls to really bond and get to know each other better. Calli and Hannah making the most of their bus ride. 

They got to Draper with plenty of time before the games so they ate and went shopping to entertain themselves for a while. Calli, Hannah and Ashley Jensen.  Calli's roommates this trip were Smity, Morgan, and Mishayla.  Adam and I checked the girls out of school around 10:00 am and got there in time for the games. Again, Calli played in all 4 games. She played about half of the Varsity games and the entire JV games. 

For the JV games Calli was one of the Captains. (Showing off her Captain badge she wears on her sock for the games.)

While waiting for cousins to come to the game, Gentry entertained herself quite well. 

Alta won both the JV and the Varsity. But Coach Kunde said he would rather have the team go up against powerhouse teams and lose then to play easy teams and have the score reversed. These games challenge them and teach them so much. After the game the team climbed on the bus to go eat and play. We went and played as well. We took Sadie and Gentry and went with Stacy's family to Trafalga. 

The kids had fun doing glow in the dark miniature golf,

Calli played half with Varsity and then the entire game of JV without coming out once. You could tell by the end of it she was beat. She was pretty pale and shaky so Adam grabbed her a Gatorade before the team headed out.

The team heading home. Calli wanted to ride the bus home with the team, so we got on the road as well.  It was a quick, up and back trip but we are so glad we went...we haven't missed a game yet!
