Kaden started soccer too!

At Mackinna's first week of soccer Kaden seemed to feel so left out, so I inquired about the age cut off for the 3-4 year old program and they told me if we were comfortable with it- they were fine with him playing. They suggested we give it a trial run the following week. There was no looking back for Kaden, I walked him up to his coach and introduced him. Coach said, "would you like to pick a shirt, Kaden" Kaden replied, "I want a soccer ball!" And then he was off. He loves it and can't wait to go back!
Soccer is hard work- he fell asleep with his ball in his lap on the 1.5 mile drive home.
He loved soccer so much- he even had to hold his new ball in his lap on the way home.
Daddy tells him to try to stay on his feet. Apparently he has watched too many hockey games, he kept making himself fall to the ground after every play.
He rolled around on his ball during the "team meeting"
He "started" in his first game because he wasn't crying or afraid to leave my lap. Standards are not terribly high. Once on the field he just could resist the turf- he had to try a forward roll in the middle of the game.
He started with some drills- check out that kick!
