Soccer

Ryan had his first soccer practice last night... with the "woman" coach. She wasn't exactly a woman, being only 16 years old, but she was awesome. I think she may be the best coach he's ever had, man or woman or teenager. LOL

And guess why this 16 yo is coaching soccer instead of playing?? B/c she's homeschooled (!!!) so she can't play for the local high school. I thought that was pretty awesome but when I told dh, he thought it was horrible. It's great that she's coaching and mature enough to handle all those little punks but sad that she can't play on a team. But I think Jeff has delusions of grandeur when it comes to Ryan playing football so he's worried about where he's going to play football when he gets too old for the city league. What do you think? Um, about the soccer coach, not about Jeff's delusions of granduer!

In other soccer news....

Adam has had one practice. One got rained out and it looks likes this evening's practice will be cancelled b/c of a thunderstorm. Spring may not be the best time for outdoor sports. LOL He loved the one practice he had and they'll have their first game on Monday.

We still haven't heard from Evan's coach. I'm expecting him to have a practice next week since their games start next Saturday.

I'm glad he liked his new coach. It's a shame she can't play on a team. In our state, homeschool kids can participate in any aspect of public school on a part time basis. It's not unusual for homeschoolers to attend public school part time for band, choir, or sports. I even considered sending my kids to the local school for PE twice a week.
