The H Man played in his 1st soccer game last Saturday. He was a little slow to get started, I guess that's what happens when you have one practice then show up for a game, but by the end, he was kicking the ball down the field. Sure there where a few times that he kicked the ball all the way towards the wrong goal or tackled the ball to keep it from going to the opposite team but overall, he's a natural. Even Brooks got in a few practice kicks while we waited for the game to start.
My new friend, Darby, is the Acorn soccer coach...a very prestigious title. You need A LOT of patience to wrangle these kids up and down the field. This is a job that I probably will never be able to do. She does a great job getting the kids excited about the game and how to play as a team. At one point Robert looked at me and said, "It's like trying to herd cats!" But the team was great and what a blast to watch these kids work together while having fun!
So cute!
