Wet soccer

We are back from a cold and very wet soccer game. Luckily it was on turf, so it wasn't a mudbath. Mali played great, and her team did okay but still managed to lose 3-0. They are playing in a tougher tournament than usual - their coaches opted for the premier league tournament. It's a big transition - a lot of the dribbling they could pull off in the lower league doesn't work here, and they haven't quite got their passing down yet.
My fingers aren't working too well either. They are still stiff from cold.
We're all heading out now to end-of-soccer-season party at Laserport. She still has one more game to go, on Tuesday, but next weekend is Thanksgiving and Coach Dean will be gone, so this was the last chance.
