We debated whether to sign Chandler up for a competitive soccer league as opposed to the YMCA this season, since she seemed ready for a higher level, and we were nervous she would be too reserved playing with the boys. At this age, Brooklynn played on a team where she was the only girl and the boys were super athletic, so it made her feel uncomfortable and unprepared. Luckily Chandler's team was half boys and half girls, and she had no problem showing the boys up.
She was super aggressive, not afraid to run with her elbows out and steal the ball from anyone. A few games she completely dominated the field, scoring the most goals. This girl is so fast and determined. We can't wait to see what the future holds with her and athletics, but we'll surely be fighting over which sport to get her into. I see a future shortstop, while Steve envisions a future mid-fielder.
I guess we'll have to wait and see. For now we'll keep her in soccer and move into a more competitive league to see how she does. Compromise -softball in the summer and soccer in the fall.
