“So proud of my little man! His team, @coach_tshiama_academy u6 won their first trophy in the Spring league tournament. The played 2 games a week for 4 weeks, won all 8 games and played the final this Sunday winning 5-2! It’s unbelievable how stressful it can get wanting them to win even though they’re still so young, all the parents had their hearts in their throats! I love that he is a year younger than his age group and he’s getting maximum exposure and game time! Whether he becomes a professional soccer player or not, the lessons he is learning through something he enjoys is so worth it! I’d like to send a big shoutout to all the parents and especially to the coahes at @coach_tshiama_academy who picked up four trophies and a silver medal,” Thomas said.
