Statton's Soccer Camp

July 22-26 I signed Statton up to play in the Challenger Sports British Soccer Camp. They have guys from England come over and put on these soccer camps all over Wyoming and Colorado. You got a weeks worth of instruction and a camp shirt and a soccer ball. Statton absolutely loved soccer. They don't have much for sports for little kids until they are about six. So this was way fun for Statton to do. He had been wanting to do a sport all summer so I was glad when I came across this. He enjoyed going everyday and looked forward to it. 
 These were just a few shots I took one of the days after camp.

 This was the last day of the camp. The kids got to dress up in whatever they wanted and Statton wanted to wear his pirate costume.







 Here Statton is with Coach Matt. He's the one who instructed the younger kids all week. They were so fun to talk to with the british accents and everything. I believe Matt said he was from Manchester.
 They gave each one of the boys a poster with a soccer player on it and on the other side the coaches had written things about each player. This is what Coach Matt said about Statton.
"Statton it has been a pleasure to be your coach this week you have impressed me with your soccer skills, but your attitude and commitment this week has also been excellent. I have seen huge improvements in your control, dribbling, and passing. Continue to train as hard as you have this week Hope to see you next year!"
