Terry Foster: Shutting Down My Favorite Athlete Is No Fun

My favorite athlete in the whole world buried her head in my stomach and began to cry. She knew what was coming but deep down she knew I was doing the right thing as a parent.

Celine Foster the young soccer player is being shut down for a minimum of two weeks, perhaps longer. She was diagnosed Monday with Plantar Fasciitis, also know as the Grant Hill foot disorder. The problem began three weeks ago during a soccer tournament and it kept on as she prepared for indoor season. Celine missed the first game of the season, gave it the old college try on Saturday, but knew she could not continue.

Be careful out there parents. We suspect it was caused by new soccer shoes that were too loose.
