The World Cup

In the coming weeks our players will have the opportunity to enjoy watching the World Cup. Some players will watch every game, while others may not watch one. While most players are not as passionate about watching the game as they are playing it, the tournament once again presents a learning opportunity for our players.

Each of us will be cheering on the United States, beginning with Saturday's showdown against England. While we may not be watching other games with the same kind of passion, hopefully our kids will find favorite players in other games to model themselves after.

We are kicking off our World Cup celebration at Geeters on Saturday, June 12th at 2:30. Hope to see you there!
