This spring Davey played soccer. It was an especially fun year for him because Dave was his coach. I don't know if it was particularly fun for Dave. Trying to get a bunch of 5 and 6 year-olds to follow directions is definitely a challenge. Half the time one kid would be laying on the ground, while another was hanging from the goalposts, while another was stealing the ball from his own teammate. All in all though, Davey really enjoyed himself, and had really improved by the end of the season.

Coach Dave in action. I think this is one of those rare instances in which they were actually listening to him! |
|
I think he really enjoyed the social aspect of the game! |

Poor Charlie, he had a really hard time sitting on the sidelines, especially with Davey playing and Daddy coaching. Most games we ended up making him sit in the car with a grandparent to make sure he stayed off the field! |
|
Here he is starting to be a little more aggressive in going for the ball. |

All the boys together at the end. |
