Soccer Monster

Drew had his first soccer practice last Monday. It was interesting to say the least.

Each kid gets a mini soccer ball and gets to keep their jersey. Drew is number 2.

At first the guys subbing for our coach were having the kids kick ("pass") back and forth to each other and practice on dribbling and Drew kept dribbling off and shooting a goal. I thought maybe we had some natural talent on our hands.
Drew running off and kicking the ball and Andy trying to get him to come back.
Nana was there to help with wild woman. She was everywhere, she also wanted to play soccer.
Action shot!
No hands, Jillian.
Listening intently to coaches.

Luke is on our team and his little brother Nate was there too. Nate and Jillian played a little to pass the time.
Jillian giving a pretty convincing fake cry. I think she is upset because Andy took the ball away.
Owen is also on our team. Here are the 3 boys - Drew, Owen and Luke. Aren't they cute.
Drew getting upset and pulling up his shorts in a fit.
Drew shooting a goal!
The next practice was pretty trying. It is obvious he is one of the younger kids, has some attention problems and has not been exposed to the wait your turn in line concept. I am hoping that this Monday will be a little smoother.
