Medals, Ice Cream, and a Joyful Summer Finale

Today the temperature was around 20°C, with a little light rain in the sky. The cool weather was perfect for soccer. The children arrived at the field happily and full of energy, with 24 young players joining today’s training and games.

During the first 15 minutes, the coaches led the children through warm-up and stretching so everyone could get their bodies moving and prepare for the match. For the next 15 minutes, three coaches guided the players through passing drills and two-on-two scrimmage training. The children were focused, active, and eager to participate.

At 7:00 PM, the children split into two teams and began the day’s match. Although a little rain was still falling, it did not dampen anyone’s enthusiasm. The field was filled with running, passing, shooting, and laughter, and every child gave their full effort.

At 7:45 PM, the game came to an end and we reached a special moment for this year’s summer soccer program: the coaches presented each young player with a Summer Soccer Medal. Each medal was engraved with the child’s own name, creating a meaningful keepsake to remember their commitment, participation, and growth throughout the summer.

A special thank you to Kelly’s family for bringing ice cream for the children! After the game, the children held their medals and enjoyed ice cream together, bringing this summer’s soccer program to a very happy and heartwarming close.

Thank you to the 24 children who came to the field today, and thank you to all the coaches and parents for your support and companionship throughout the summer. Seeing the children run, grow, and make friends on the field has been one of the most beautiful parts of this summer. ⚽🏅🍦

Summer Soccer has ended, but the joy that soccer brings to the children will continue!

A Breezy Evening and a Great Game

The temperature was a comfortable 24°C—perfect for outdoor activity. Although it was a little windy, the breeze kept the mosquitoes away and helped everyone enjoy the evening. A total of 25 children attended, and four coaches led them through warm-ups, passing drills, and two-on-two scrimmages.

The session ended with an exciting full match: all four coaches played against all the children. Both sides ran, passed, and worked together with tremendous energy, finishing in a 3–3 draw. The field was filled with laughter, teamwork, and another wonderful evening of soccer!

A special thank you to Sheryl, Yuzhu, and Jiang for providing ice cream, chips, and Freezies for everyone!

Sunshine, Soccer, and Smiles All Around

A total of 24 children joined us for the third day of soccer activities. After warming up, the players divided into four groups for passing and one-on-one drills led by the coaches. They then formed two groups for small-sided matches under the coaches' guidance. Everyone ran, learned, and enjoyed a lively evening filled with energy and laughter.

The weather was beautiful. Away from video games, the soccer field became a wonderful playground for everyone. The kids were happy, the parents were happy, and the coaches were happy—we all had a fantastic and memorable day. What a day!

A special thank you to 小妮子 (custom and retail cycling apparel), Ryan, and 小白 for providing ice cream for everyone!

A Fun Start in the Sunshine

We had beautiful weather for our first soccer activity, with 16 children joining us on the field. Guided by the coaches, the children completed warm-ups, a basic skill assessment, and fun drills before playing games and small-sided matches. Everyone ran, learned, and laughed their way through a lively evening. At the end of the activity, the children cooled down together with refreshing popsicles, making for a perfect finish to a wonderful first day.

As the program continues, we will add more photos and highlights from each training day here.
