Apple Cup Soccer Tournament 2018 - Wenatchee


Kallie’s had her first out of town soccer tournament in Wenatchee a few weeks back. Since Eric was out of town I decided to pick her up early on Friday so we could start our girls weekend, she was over the moon! She loved exploring our hotel and of course spent lots of time in the pool followed by dinner with a few families from the team. The girls were all up early ready to play some soccer. They had two games on Saturday and won both. Everyone played well, passed the ball a ton and were aggressive (maybe a bit too aggressive since the ref told Kallie if she pushed again she would get a yellow card, whoops)! After the games we had a pizza/pool party at the hotel which was probably the highlight for the kids. The next morning they won their game 3-0 which put them in the finals which were intense because both teams were there to win. Although we dominated the game we went to overtime ultimately ending in penalty kicks and losing 5-4.

I was so proud of Kallie this weekend. She played her heart out form beginning to the very end when she scored her penalty kick. You could tell by the look on her face that she was proud of herself too! Although the came in second she was happy with how she played and loved being recognized in the medal ceremony. I have never seen her so confident!

It was a great weekend of soccer for the girls and a ton of fun for the parents to watch!
