Fantasy Football

Andrew has got over the disappointment of not being given the player of the year award again at footy. On Saturday he played in the Under 9's Soccer 7's tournament all morning. It's ok for him running around keeping warm...but what about the parents who had to stand in the freezing cold rain all morning? Anyway he knocked up 12 goals and I was ready to go home and warm up when the coaches approached me asking me if he could play in the afteroon too. One of the teams in the Under 10's tournament had dropped out so Andrew and the other good players were entering as underdogs. They beat Dunbar's own Under 10 team 5-0 and got a couple of other victories that put them in the final. The winning streak stopped there losing 3-1 but they were applauded by the Under 10's eating humble pie and came away with medals they had worked hard for.
