October 1, 2011 - A Mob to Mini-Teams

Coach changed it up a little this week and  let the kids play  4 on 4.  Confusion became the word of the day. There was confusion as to which net to kick the ball into; sometimes the kids mistakenly kicked it into the opposing team's net.  Then there were tears of confusion and frustration.  Anthony couldn't understand why his own team mate kept "taking ball."  He cried and stood on the sideline despite Daniel's encouraging words about helping his friends.  Little Daniel didn't really kick but had fun just running around. I was just happy he was on the field. All the parents were cheering, praising, and picture taking.  After the game, our mini-team bonded as they played tag, and we made 2 new acquaintances.
