Learning how to kick the ball into the goal
Coach Brian and Coach Jeff working with the group
"That girl took MY BALL from me!!!" She didn't really get that that was the point of soccer and that it wasn't "her ball"! I know it was a little mean to take her picture while she was upset, but it was kind of funny!
Not quite Mia Hamm yet! Caroline had her first soccer practice today! She seemed to have fun even though she spent a lot of time picking flowers, digging in a dirt pile on the field, running away from the group and crying when someone took the ball from her. It was a bit hard explaining to her that the point of soccer is to "take" the ball away from someone and kick it in the goal! All and all she said that she had a good time and asked if she could have some "soccer shoes" , a.k.a. cleats. We'll see how it goes next week. Her first game is Sat. March 8, so we'll be sure to post more pictures then.
