Mac is once again playing soccer, but this time at the City instead of the YMCA. It is a little more organized and slightly more serious in the City league, but I have quickly learned when your team is all 6yr olds who have never played real soccer, organization and seriousness take a backseat to learning sportsmanship and fundamentals. Our team is definitely in a “building year” which is a nice way of saying so far we have gotten our butts kicked at every game. On a side note I don’t think it is fair that some of the U8 teams are stacked with 2nd graders who play Select travel soccer while our team is nothing but 1st graders who have never really played, but hey life isn’t fair! The pictures make Mac look like a superstar and truthfully he is really enjoying it. He listens to what Coach Dax tells him at practice, and he really got after the ball in the first game. A few more clinics and a good match up with another 1st grade team and we will be good to go!
