Writing with the same descriptive flair that has received his novels a great deal compliment, W. D. Wetherell tells the true account of his high-school-age son's receiving soccer season. Soccer Dad is simultaneously the candid reflections of any devoted daddy and the enthusiastic observations of any diehard soccer lover. When Matt enters his senior season of senior high school, it isn't without myriad parenting concerns for his father, writer W. D. Wetherell. What is his role in shaping his son's future? What will life be like when Matt is away at college? And what of Matt's soccer season? Is Matt's success in soccer just arranging him up for disappointment later in life? Using the pensive eye of the artist, Wetherell follows his son's team from field to field and win to win and ruminates on issues which range from soccer's esoteric appeal in the us to the conflicting thoughts of a parent or guardian sending his youngest child away in to the world. Reflecting by himself experiences both as a participant and a spectator, Wetherell offers a paean to the sport of soccer and the joys of parenthood.
