My 14 year old Joshua signed up to join the school soccer team recently. The team is newly formed and made up of children that have never played soccer before. They had a week of training together, (some of them had never kicked a soccer ball.) Their first game was yesterday.
They played a rather good team who obviously had more experience in playing soccer and playing together. The opposing team scored 4 goals and beat Joshua’s team, which scored nothing. I was in the stands watching all of this embarrassing defeat. I encouraged Joshua to keep his head up and that as the team continues to practice together they will eventually learn to play well as a team.

Hi Pastor Senyonga! I just saw your blog for the first time! Tell Joshua I'm thinking of all those playground "soccer" games at school when his shoe flew off and I'm smiling :) Glad he finally gets to play and w/ patience they will get better. Tell all the kids and Eve I said hello and miss them! I bet they are all so tall now! Post a picture! Sending my love--Mrs. Andrews
