Tyler Soccer Spring 07


Go Predators! Tyler was on his first soccer team this spring. Tyler had a hard time getting used to not touching the ball with his hands at first. His first game, he even saw a ball in a neighboring field and went after that ball instead of his own! Also, it was a challenge to teach him which goal was his, and he even scored a goal against his own team. We cheered just the same! He came to love soccer though. Almost every game he scored goals - which was his favorite part. In one game he even scored 3 goals!

The kids would have practice for the first 20 minutes and then a game, every Saturday morning. It's hilarious watching 4 year olds on the field. Some weeks they would all be playing really rough and the next they would be staring at the clouds, playing with their shorts, and picking their noses! Tyler really had fun and by the end of the season, was able to stop the ball, turn it around and run it down the field. Next step - passing the ball to a team mate!
