With so much excitement due to the start of preschool, we didn’t have time to write about the last class of Maile’s first session of soccer. For the last couple of months, every Saturday, Maile and I have attended a SoccerTots soccer program. It was a lot of fun and Maile made a lot of progress since her first class back in June.
Let's do this!
Every session starts out with a stretching session - Maile always goes and stands on the purple dot.
After stretching, we practice our soccer skills - Daddy helps with balance, but Maile is getting pretty good at standing with one foot on the ball...
Rolling the ball back and forth is a little trickier, but Mommy helped Maile Girl out!
Then we do some drills - here Maile is kicking over the cones with the ball...
Not sure what this has to do with soccer, but it is a lot of fun!
About halfway through class, we take a goldfish break and talk a little strategy...
After our snack, Mommy and Maile sing some songs - it helps build team spirit...
We end class with a couple runs through the obstacle course - Maile rocks at the tunnel!
All in all, it was a fun couple of months and an activity that we are going to continue doing. Nice to start the weekend running around outside!
