Our inaugural soccer season is in full swing! Both our 5/6 and 7/8 teams have played their first games, and our teams are doing an excellent job in this first year of ILS competition in the ABC league.
We have a few more games to go this season. Come on out and cheer on our ILS teams!
We are thrilled to announce that ILS will be fielding two co-ed soccer teams this fall! Under the leadership of Coach Schultz and Coach Able, our 5/6 team and 7/8 team had their first practice yesterday afternoon as they prepare for the new season.
Mark your calendars for these upcoming games and come out to cheer on and support our ILS teams!
Upper School students at Immanuel study a new sport each month in Physical Education classes. For the month of October, the Upper School students worked on their soccer skills, everything from dribbling the soccer ball, to passing, to shooting, to goal-keeping. To set a goal for our students, a game was scheduled with Alexandria Country Day School on October 29. Needless to say, with an upcoming game against ACDS, the students’ motivation was high to push harder and learn intently in PE classes. The students knew as well as I did that they had to take advantage of every moment in PE to get ready for their opponent just a few blocks away on Russell Road.
Our mission at Immanuel Lutheran School is to nurture minds, hearts, and bodies of students. Our annual Field Day events are a perfect example of the third part of this trio, as students have been working in their P.E. classes throughout the year to prepare for the fun competitions during Field Day.
