Here's a few photos from the soccer tournament in Cihuatlan on Sunday. The younger lads are 10-12 years I'm guessing and the older ones 15-17?


The pre-game intoduction


Many were wearing playeras in honour of the young fellow that tragically passed a
few weeks back.


Some of the huge contingent of La Manz. fans. I'd guess that two thirds of the bleachers
were filled with people from this town....great town spirit!


An acrobatic attempt on goal.


Fleet footed #11 on a strong charge down the wing.


Size differential didn't bother him.


Fabulous diving save off a penalty shot. Although they were out sized by at least 10kg on average,
they played a hard fought game but eventually fell 4-0.

Scrum inside the box.


Blocking a free kick from outside the box.








Shortly after the goal that put them up 1-0


Unfortunately I had battery issues and missed the goal.

Wow, dynamite photos! We know all those kids, but couldn't be there for the big game. I can put some of the photos on FaceBook if you haven't done it already... Kudos!
