Soccer Wrap Up!

Seth and Jackson finished out their season of soccer!  The season went way too fast this Spring.  Seth will begin coaching Owen in the Fall and Jackson will move on to another coach!  Here are some pictures from the last game and awards time. As you can see the motley crew loved Coach Seth!

Jackson started soccer on Friday with Coach Seth by his side again for the Fall season. His first game was Sat. Last Spring was Jackson’s first season to play and it was neat to see him start up this Fall season with some more skill and focus. We are excited to see him grow and learn with his teammates!  And I must say Coach Seth has gotten pretty darn good at herding cats… I mean coaching 1st graders!

Here are some pics!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jackson told Seth he’ll be calling him “Coach Seth” just so the other kids don’t get confused.

I mentioned a few weeks ago that Jackson had begun his first season of soccer. So far so good! He is really enjoying it and burning off lots of energy.

We told Jackson before the first game that he would have 10 mins to vent in the car after each game…but then it would be done. He could be frustrated and upset but he had to save it for the car and couldn’t take care of it on the field. To our amazement he has had a super positive experience and hasn’t needed his vent time.  Owen has enjoyed cheering him on and makes himself at home on teammates family blankets. The boy figures everyone is there to meet him. Last week he met a blind Yorkie dog. When the owner said that he would need to talk to the dog to let him know he was there Owen proceeded to softly bark to the dog for the following hour. Holding his leash and watching his every move.
