Real FC

 This year Morgan has had the opportunity to play with an AYSO "all-star" team.  She had tryouts (which were super stressful for her I think) and is really enjoying playing.  She is able to play with her good friend, Abigale, and they have really enjoyed being on the same team.  

They've played in Brigham City, Mt. Green and Ogden.  Their team tied for 1st place in their fall season...but lost their championship game in the last minute of the game.  Their team has played against 2 (12 year old) older teams too.  For their team to do this well in their very first season says a lot about those girls.  You should see some of the girls on the older teams.  They are SOOO much taller, it's a little intimidating sometimes.  It was so exciting to watch and most games you would find most of the parents standing up on the sidelines cheering as loud as they could.

Here was one game that I actually remembered my camera.....

The thing that impresses me about Morgan is the fact that she isn't scared of the older/taller girls.  Some of the other parents call her a "scrapper" because she gets right in the middle of the battle and usually can get the ball.  She's a tough little player. :)

 

A little pep-talk during half-time...

 

I can't remember why, but I think that Morgan was having a hard time during this game.  Abigale is such a sweet and thoughtful girl ~ she is always giving Morgan little squeezes if she needs it.
