The boys were SO excited when they heard they were going to get to scrimmage a team made up of U11 girls. First of all, they love to scrimmage, so much more fun than boring old practice and these girls were older! Now, if I am going to be honest, I must say that I was a little worried that these 5th grade girls were going to wipe up the field with these third grade boys (and Colm who is only in first grade, but the coach lets him practice with them anyways). I am pleased to announce, however, that the boys did AWESOME and the girls only scored one goal in the last five minutes of the game. I might also add that we played on their field which is much bigger than the field the boys are used to which means A LOT more running and the goals are a lot bigger, too. I was very impressed and so were the coaches.
