Both G and Drew had soccer tournaments this weekend in cities about 45 minutes from us in opposite directions! So Jim and I split up and I watched Grace on Saturday while he watched Drew. Then we flip flopped for Sunday.
Out of 8 games we had 7 wins. Grace's team lost their game first thing on Sunday morning which put them in the consolation game - which the won 5 to 0. It was too bad because they were the best team at the tourney but they just didn't play well on Sunday morning.
Drew's team won the tournament. They played really well the whole weekend. But a weird thing happened: After the championship game, they always have an awards ceremony. It happens right away and only takes a few minutes. Typically, the team that won and the team that lost the Championship go and accept their medals. Well - when they started the ceremony, the losing team's coach came up and said that he let his players go home! So they were not there for the ceremony. We have never seen something like that. It seemed so disrespectful and a display of poor sportsmanship. We were really surprised.
