My son's U14 Tier 2 indoor soccer team won a gold medal in the Slush Cup up in Edmonton, Alberta. The gold medal game was a tight contest and it went to a penalty shoot-out. My son Alex was selected to be the fifth kicker. As it turned out, when his turn came, each team has scored 3 goals each. His team got to shoot last, so he potentially could win the Gold for his team if he scored. I don't think I will ever forget the look he gave me just before he headed out to take the kick. 

 As it turned out, he scored off the post. Once again, I'll never forget the look of pure happiness on his face after that goal ...
