Soccer from the Canadian Perspective

Hi, everybody. I wrote a great blog a few days ago and lost it because it wouldn’t publish to the blogspot. Aarrrrgggh! I’m so angry. But, I’ll try to recreate it here.

I was saying that my son plays soccer and this is his fifth year. Every year he and his teammates (the boys are sorted into new teams every year) get better and better. It’s fun to watch his games twice a week. His team this year is very good and they have only lost one game so far. We’ve also been lucky with the weather. While Tuesdays and Thursdays have had very bad weather this spring, Mondays and Wednesdays have been pretty good and so they only had to cancel one game because of lightening. (It’s dangerous to play on the fields when there is lightening. However, if it is just raining, they will still play. Next weekend is the tournament and I hope he and his team get the gold medal! Canada may not have a team in the World Cup but we have some hope for the future!

So, what do you think about Canada and China having a tournament on their own to find out which is the worst team? Would this be fun to watch?
