Soccer ended a few weekends ago on a cold and rainy Saturday morning. Their last practice was supposed to be a game and a medal ceremony. All the kids showed up just wanting their medals, since it was so cold and rainy. So that is what the coach decided to do, just give the kids their medals.
When they started playing "games" at practice Lauren did not really like soccer anymore. It was just too aggressive. There were 9 boys and 3 girls all running, falling, pushing, shoving, going after the same white soccer ball. So Lauren was happy just to get her medal and go home. Killian was too!
At this point she was pretty cold and wet, no big smiles from Lauren. She loves her medal. She slept with it several nights, and even wore it to school one day.
I think Lauren enjoyed practicing soccer, going through each of the stations (dribbling, passing, kicking, and goalie) but when it came time for the actual game that was a different story. We will try again in the fall with a 3 on 3 league and see how things go. Very fun to watch her have so much fun (most of the time) with Killian and Seth. Yea Lauren!!!
