my little soccer star
Julien loves to kick around the soccer ball. I was worried that he wouldn't enjoy actually PLAYING soccer, so I didn't want to sign him up in a league. I found a 5week program through our city recreation department, and today was his first day.

oh 5 weeks sounds like the perfect length for an introduction to soccer. Once DS is old enough I think we will sign him up for soccer as well. Hockey arenas are too cold for this mama!
ReplyDeleteIt seemed like the best way to introduce him to the sport - although I do want him to play hockey too....
DeleteGreat exercise for the kids! Teaches so many other skills as well like team playing etc.. Glad he enjoys it!
ReplyDeleteit was awesome seeing him "learning" the game - he doesn't like to let us teach him how to play, so this was great
DeleteI'm so glad he loves it, it's so difficult to know if they will until we actually try.
ReplyDeleteso true - I didn't want to spend the money on a league if he ended up not liking it - this was much more cost effective for us and now that we know, next year we will enroll him in a league
Delete5 weeks program is a great start! and you can schedule your vacation easily!
ReplyDeletevacation? what is that? LOL - no holidays for us unfortunately
Deletefun! I would love to get my boys into something like that
ReplyDeleteTrace wants to play soccer, even though we are a bit afraid b/c of his CP and legs hurting, we are signing him up. Your little guy looked like he had fun which is always great for moms and dads to watch! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteMy eldest plays soccer and loves it. It's a great sport to socialize and learn team work. She started off in the community centres and now plays competitively but, in her own pace. She'll take a season off if she wants. I don't like to pressure her.
ReplyDeleteI still have awesome memories of playing soccer! So fun!
ReplyDeleteI spent hours at the field watching my brother play, so much fun!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome. I felt the same way with my four year old son, but through our Recreation department in our town their 8 week program teaches them the skills and tricks and he loves it. I'm glad you're little one is loving it!
ReplyDeleteGlad your lil one enjoyed soccer! Both of our boys are in it and love it!
