The next Pelé

This one one VERY excited guy! Tripp and his Daddy began with a trip to the soccer shop. Looks like this guy could not have been more excited! There was a little girl in the shop that liked the shoes he tried on. 
Don: "Tripp, which shoes do you like the most?"
Tripp: "Deez!"
(of course the brightest ones that the little girl liked on him)

 

They even heat pressed his name on his shirt for the season. He's looking like the real deal - that's for sure!


Then after some practice he was ready for a full press scrimmage in the backyard!


Mr. Gustavo came over and even wore his Columbia uniform ready to play! Tripp was excited and ready to show off his new skill...



His Daddy has already informed him that he wants too many water breaks - the fusspusser likes "Bwakes" as he calls them (ha!)...

Juliette got into the game as well.

After a hard fought match Tripp let them know that Columbia and the USA won!


The kids all were happy to congratulate Columbia on a great match!

So on to the first practice. It was just the cutest thing! All 20 little people moving in all difference directions. The coach was stuck in traffic so Don went out there to warm them up.



The kids all had a ball and loved running around, cheering, AND taking water breaks!


Once a big sister always a big sister... you can even hear her guiding him and advising him on the video. Finally Tripp said to her, "Ju-iette I know how to do it!"


And the look on his face after the first practice! 

"I LOVED it! When can we play again??"

Some little guy slept well tonight!
