We signed Charlie up for soccer through the YMCA. Figured it'd be a good way for us to meet some Katy families and for him to make some new friends! We've started practices already and he had his 1st soccer game!
The 1st practice was so cute..seeing these 3&4 year olds sit in a circle and stretch..oh my!
We lucked out and got the sweetest Coach-he has 2 small kids himself and has coached before.. it was very obvious he knew how to keep their attention. I was amazed! They did little drills and practiced kicking the ball down the field.
We had been prepping Charlie for his 1st game so he'd know what to expect. He seemed so excited to go & play!
That was until we got there. He saw all the parents & the kids on the other team and just froze! He's rarely shy so we really didn't know what to do! Charlie wasn't the only one though.. I think at one point every little boy on his team was on the sidelines crying from being overwhelmed.. ha!!
It took a lot of coercing.. along with some time for him to see how the game worked but after a bit his coach convinced him to come play & he even kicked the ball a few times!
Henry was happy as can be observing it all.
The BEST part was his drink and snack afterwards! SO excited!
And to top it all off... Poppy rode on his motorcycle to come watch his 1st game! Thanks Poppy!
It'll be interesting to see how they improve by the end of the season!
