Lupita started to kick the ball as all young children do at the age. As time passed she always wanted to carry a ball around. At the young age of 5 she started to ask if she could play soccer in a team environment. We enroll her in a city recreational league for she could see if she would like playing soccer as a team.  When the season ended she was invited to play with all boys team, which participated in a local park but this league was more of a competitive league that a recreation league.

Lupita soccer journey begins as she made the team as a starting defender. As the only girl playing in the team she was not afraid of using her body to stop her opponent.  After playing for 2 years with the boy’s team we decided to take a big step in her soccer game by joining a small local team which she played for about 5 months until the team got eliminated from state cup. After the team got eliminated the team broke up and Lupita was left with no club team.

Lupita wanted to keep playing at the club level. So we looked at all our options and decide to accept the club offer to play. Lupita had a great time with this team. The team won 2 tournaments along the season and the team defense was one of the best in the clubs fall league with the fewest goals scored against. The team got eliminated in the second round of the state cup.

Lupita stay with her club team for one year and the team looks great.

We will be posting more about her soccer journey ………….
