Soccer, or Fußball (foos-ball, translates to football) as it's called over here, is a BIG deal. Mason wasn't too interested in it back home, but quickly learned that soccer is the way to a boy's heart here in Deutschland! They play it before school, during recess and after school. They have soccer practice, soccer games and soccer birthday parties. I don't know much about the game, but I'm quickly learning!
Mason is playing U-12 soccer this year on one of his school's soccer teams. They practice and play in all weather conditions. There are no rain delays or weather-related cancellations. Freezing outside? Put on some winter gear under your uniform. Wet outside? Who cares - enjoy the rain and mud and hope your mom has some good stain remover for your uniform.
