Posted: 08/12/05 - 20:28 Post subject: Officially soccer dad now
Abby and JJ signed up for youth soccer tonight.
Abby is on the special olympics team
JJ is on the 5 and under team.
They had a pick up tournament tonight that even Hannah was allowed to play in and all three got trophies.
We met the special olympics coach and players tonight for Abby. It is completely fun and more focused on getting the kids out and about.
Abby made it about 3/4 of the way through the time, of course she played the middle of the field all of the time to lessen the amount of "running" she had to do.
JJ and Hannah are really pretty good too. Should be an interesting fall.

Awesome! I just finished my first tour of duty in June with the pre-K. In September my son starts the Kindergarten league. He had a great time (and so did I).

Are you going to put a soccer ball sticker on the back of the family van?
Cool Beans! Glad the kids are having fun. I was playing soccer in the 60's...when it was only a college sport. I liked it better than football...less broken fingers etc....

Great, now i gotta watch out for soccer dads too on the road.
Glad all three kids are having fun and enjoyin it, even if the "running" needs to be toned down some. That's funny but ya got to admit Abby knows how to have a good time.

I was just a baseball, wrestling and for a while a football dad. It's all good though - sports are great for kids.
