Ev keeps goal for the U11 team

Ev was asked to play for the Under 11 team this week - he plays for the Under 10s usually, so it was a bit of a step up - you can see from the relative size of the others that there is a lot in a year at this point.  His team were playing the Brazilian SS team - and in the end beat them 8-1; a pretty solid thrashing, in which he was tested only a handful of times.  The goal that went in was from a shot that he parried, and then a kid in the box scored off the rebound.

It can be lonely stuff being number 1 (no doubt a JZ line) - and when you are brought into play there is a lot of pressure.  Strange position to choose in many ways, but Ev is completely passionate about it.

Free kick outside the box, a well struck ball over the defenders, but he had it covered.  You can see the size difference that one year brings when you are in the Under 9s playing up a year.
