Another celebration this weekend: on Sunday morning, the U11s team I co-manage were playing their first football tournament of the summer. We've just finished our second season together and haven't managed to make it out of the group stages in previous summer tournaments, but this time we came second in our group to reach the semi-finals. Two penalty shoot-outs later, they only went and won it! Even better, my youngest (Fulham fan, naturally) scored the winning penalty. At least it gave the Villa fan in our team something to feel better about.
