Soccer Tournement

Often the teen guys, and sometimes the men, go into Magdeburg on Friday afternoons to play soccer for awhile at a field close to our former church facilities. This past week-end the teens were invited to take part in a tournament for 13-15 year olds. Only Devon fit the age bracket, so he became part of a team of soccer players who play on the school's soccer field. There were 12 teams to begin with from various schools around Magdeburg. Some were school teams, but some seemed to be as loosely formed as Devon's. They played their way through to the semi-finals (which ended up necessitating a shoot out (7 meters when you are inside) and the finals which they won, also in a shoot out. We had a great time cheering him and his team on! :)
