skills

This was Grant's last soccer class, he had a great time as always!  I would say he took a lot away from this first experience: he improved at lining up behind the coach when told to do so, followed directions pretty well, learned to kick the ball and use his hands as little as possible, how to defend the goal (kind of!), he does NOT like putting on a practice jersey and would say, "no thank you, no thank you" while waving fervently at the coach to pick someone else, how to do a toe-touch, make smaller/shorter kicks so the ball wouldn't get so far out in front of him.  Overall, I saw improvement from week one to week three and was quite proud of our little soccer player!




Coach Brian was great and Grant really liked him, here they are with their certificates of completion, unfortunately though, not everyone was present for their class picture.
