Soccer time!

Recently we signed Luke and Olivia up for a 5 week soccer program. They only "play" on Saturday mornings from 9:30-10:15, and we thought it would be a perfect way to introduce them to organized sports. They play for the Strikers 3 and Easy team, and the coach is Scottish. I think some of the kids had a hard time understanding him at first! Some of their friends play on the team as well so it was nice to see some familiar faces. At this age, they don't really play games. It's more drills and kicking, and the games start when they turn 4.

They both did amazingly well, and Luke especially took right to it. He is definitely our little sports kid. It was so cute to see them all lined up listening to the coach and then participating in the drills. Olivia was really eager to kick the ball into the net, which they do at the end of practice, and didn't really like having to wait. But, that's all part of sports and the learning process! Luke was all smiles the entire time and I think they will both enjoy the next 4 weeks.
