Bridger's had a great fall soccer season. He's the top scorer on his team. At his last game, he got really mad at another kid because the the kid kept shoving him. With the last shove, Bridger couldn't take it any longer and he shoved him back. The referee blew his whistle and gave Bridger and the other kid a yellow card. I was actually so proud of Bridger for fighting back. His couch pulled him out for the last couple of minutes of the game. Coach Alex put his arm around Bridger and they went for a little walk. He talked to Bridger about being in control of his emotions and not letting the other team get in his head. He was so great with Bridger!!! He didn't scold him but he told him to play smarter next time. Coach Ben and Coach Alex are so great with the boys! They've improved so much since the summer.
At the beginning of the season, Bridger was having some contention with a couple of players. The coaches really focused on team work and by the end of the season, things had resolved. Bridger has really enjoyed getting to know the boys better. He and Bentley have become really good friends. He comes over to our house after school until practice. We love having him at our house. He's such a polite young man. He and Bridger really get along well.
Bridger played a team from K town. Mylissa, Julie and Caleb were so sweet to come to his game and support him. Bridger loved playing in from of his family. He was able to score a goal while they were watching.
