The pictures really tell the story for this post. Mac. Loves. T-Ball.
3yr old soccer was more for us than for Mac. 4yr old soccer was enjoyable for us and Mac, but the actual skill set was more like herding cats. The first t-ball game started off on about the same level with 9 out of 11 kids on the field running for every ball hit. Kids running from 3rd base straight to the dugout while the crowd yelled “run home”. And multiple kids on the same base b/c one teammate forgot to advance a base. I have to say the first game was amusing, but I wondered if we were going to be stuck in the sandbox league.
I missed the 2nd game b/c of an Easter egg hunt with Coe, so you can imagine my surprise when I went to the 3rd game and our team all knew where to stand on the field, which base to run to and when, and they actually got a player or two out! We had a lot of rain outs for t-ball, but overall the boys {and girls} learned a ton this season, made vast improvements, and most importantly had a great time.
Mac told me that next year he will play coach pitch and he is pretty sure the next year his team will play the Wahoos – our local minor league team! Once again we don’t lack in the confidence department.
GO CARDINALS!
