Yep thats right jack poo about soccer. I have never played, and I have no skills when it comes to soccer. Yes I can run, but kick the ball and keep it within some lines its not my strong suit!
So I was excited to get my son Jaxson envolved in a boy sport. A sport with some running, because mommy needs Jaxson to go to sleep on time!!! So SOCCER it is. We registered him and went off to the field for him to meet his coach. COACH RALPH he said he has coached soccer for some time, and that he was coaching four teams this season so he is busy but would love coaching U6. Awesome, right?
So why is it that when I am in social settings I tend to get volunteered for things, maybe I just have a volunteery face or something. But I apparently volunteered to be the assistant Coach to my son's soccer team. YEP this girl who know absolutely nothing about soccer. Run Kick, Run Kick, God help me if these have to be done together, I don't believe I am that coordinated!
Well last Sunday we had our first game, which was awesome because Jaxson missed the first practice because mommy missed the first email, but for a kid who has never played Jaxson did alright. (MOMMY BRAG-HE WAS AWESOME)
So last night was the first time mommy Coached the team. And it was nothing short of awesome if I do say so myself. I LOVED every minute of it. I got to work with five of the kids from his team on different things, and not just running them back and forth from the goal! So stinking fun.
We apparently had another parent step up and volunteer to assist the assistant, which was awesome! We played a little duck duck goose, and bit of soccer ball tag all while teaching little kicks and keeping the ball within the square. So just goes to show ME that something that I thought was going to be a hassle really wasn't. It reminded me how much fun I had teaching.
Couple of Picts from the game
PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE PUT ME IN COACH!!!
Wait until the whistle to go wait until the whistle to go.
OMG the whistle is never gonna blow!
I really don't like waiting on that durn whistle!
AHH they blew the whistle and I missed it. Gotta go get the ball...
Okay so I am gonna get behind the girls they got this...
Now I got it. Kick the ball, here I go
Its in there now what do we do????
Soccers Over?
POOOO
Haha, that kind of sounds like fun to help coach. I always seem to turn into the wallflower at things like that. Probably because I have only been with my step daughter and I am way younger than the rest of the parents. Maybe I will be better with my son, when I am an actual normal parent age. haha
