Lily and Addison started soccer this Saturday!
This is Addison's first time participating with an indoor team and she was so excited.
We offer our girls cash incentives for assists, goals, and stopped goals if they happen to be playing goalie.
We used to only pay for goals, but we quickly realized that we wanted to support good team playing skills as well so we added in assists and goalie money to encourage them to be better team players.
Addison stopped 7 goals yesterday and robbed us BLIND.
We pay Lily a higher amount per goal and assist because, as the girls teams get older, it becomes much harder to get a goal!
The harder you work the bigger you get paid!
Scarlett is still too young to play indoor, but she wore her birthday dress yesterday and chased boys, so she was happy.
Lily didn't get a goal or an assist yesterday but her team won!
They all played so well together and we were so impressed with how she fought so hard and stayed in her position.
She was super frustrated but it gave us the opportunity to talk about the importance of EVERY team member on the field and how they help support the goals.
I may sneak her a dollar today anyway cause she's so awesome.
