What I Love About Soccer - GO RAIDERS!

1. It's a cool thing for dad to do with Danny and Geoff.
2. Teamwork. We'll never succeed in school, business, life or soccer without cooperation. What better place to learn it than on a field?
3. Boys need to run, kick and yell, breath fresh air, sweat and run some more!
4. Snack time.
5. Our awesome team parents who always arrive with a good attitude. They cheer all our efforts, win or lose. The players never feel defeated when the parents treat them like winners.
6. Sportsmanship. Face it, we all lose sometime. Soccer teaches us to lose with grace and dignity.
7. Watching the kids learn and grow. It is so exciting to see players communicate with each other, try out "moves", plan, problem solve and throw their whole body into what they do.
8. Belonging. Everyone on the team has the same name on their shirt - Raiders. A place for everyone.
9. Fresh air, sunshine, green grass, photo ops, chatting with other soccer moms, cheering til we're horse.
10. GOAL!
