Okay, so obviously the FIFA World Cup Final, it is here. And while we're celebrating soccer stars from Spain and Argentina, we have to celebrate some of our very own. So it's time for Look Who Kicks. Let's kick things off with Heidi from Mequon. She sent us this picture of the soccer star in her life. For them, game day started with a good breakfast and going outdoors. She says they've played soccer and watched it forever and they're hoping to see a big win for Argentina. Good for that family. Well, for Becca in Slinger, it's not a game day if the soccer star isn't in her life. Now, of course, he's wearing a jersey there. And of course, he likes to listen to pump up songs on the way to the game. Now, she says he has so much fun playing soccer with their team. And as mom, Becca is always cheering him on. But sometimes the grandparents, aunts and uncles, a big family gathering comes to watch the family party. And Elyse in Colgate has a pop-up playlist she listens to on repeat for the drive to the game. She says she loves learning from her teammates and facing new challenges. Elyse says they always encourage each other to do better and play better. And Stephanie in Hartford sent us this picture of her daughter. She says her daughter has played soccer for six years now and it's a major part of their lives. And let's take things over to Franksville. Now, Coralyn, a.k.a. Coco, starts off game days by listening to her game day playlist, which includes Breaking Dishes by Rihanna, such a good song. Her favorite part of soccer, the passion and teamwork. And passing the ball now to Thomas from Racine, his favorite team, the Blue Team, of course. He's repping it there in his own jersey. On game days, he's all about soccer first, then snow cones after. He says soccer is something new he tried this year. It taught him commitment and teamwork, but most importantly, how to have fun. Have fun? All right, we're highlighting this soccer star, Axel from Silver Lake. Axel says he doesn't really have a ritual and isn't superstitious, so he just tries to get focused and play the best he can. It's game time. Axel plays in a spring and fall league and his family loves to come watch him play. He's been playing in this league for about six or seven years and is excited to keep going. Wow. Well, let's hear it for Mia in Caledonia. Her game day starts with an energy-filled meal and some self-hype before the game.

And Wesley in New Berlin doesn't just listen to his favorite song on the way to the game. He rocks out to that. He loves getting to have fun, being active and learning team values. For Henry in New Berlin, which is everybody's favorite. Yeah, I know. It's all about relaxing before the games and listening to music on the way. Then warming up with the team.
