And, in case you are curious, I use the term "soccer" loosely.  They mainly ran around the field as a pack, mobbing the ball.  Occasionally, the ball would squirt out of the mass of kids and a star player would dribble it down toward a goal (not always the correct goal).  Here's some footage to show you what I mean:


Our team lost every single game, but they were all winners for demonstrating such great teamwork.  Tillie even got a medal to prove it!
