Football Then and Now

Gil played tackle football for one season before we moved overseas. It was the fall of 2007 and he was in the 2nd grade, it was quite a fun season for him! Here he is then:




And here he is now. 7 years later. Playing with many of the same friends from that first Trojan football team:






The years in between these two seasons he took up cricket and English football in London, hockey and lacrosse in Boston, while continuing to advance and develop his basketball and baseball skills too. I have to hand it to Gil, he rolls with the punches and adapts to wherever he lands and whatever sport is being played.  He is not afraid to jump in and try something new. He is confident. He is deliberate. He is a risk taker. He is astute. He makes us so proud.
