10. if you show up with your cleats on.....
and you play hard, try your best.... there is no shame in losing

this is what I tell my 10 year old soccer players... I'd tell you the same thing.

Congratulate yourself on a good effort

congratulations from me too!

14. You should have told us all what town in advance....
