Today Natalie had her first soccer game! She was a little nervous and also tired after a long day in school. To have games late afternoons/early evenings on a weekday doesn't seem optimal for our little girl. She doesn't have so much energy left in the afternoons...Anyway it was nice seeing all the kids play today..or play I shouldn't say..more run after who ever has the ball... Natalie hasn't really understood the basics in soccer yet but I think she has a good time anyway... I've heard a lot of stories from back when I started play soccer.... I wasn't so focused on the game...for a long time it was more interesting with practising cart wheels on the grass... Natalie is very busy with talking to her team mates and go drink water and stuff like that... Well, eventually she will be more into the sport, or I guess time will tell. She might decide that soccer isn't for her..If so that's fine..There are a whole bunch of other activities to try out! One thing that I really like about sports in general here in the US is the idea that young people can play and participate in different sports without have to choose between them. The seasons and rules are set up so you have shorter and intense periods of each sports, and they don't really overlap either...So the result of that is that you can focus completely on one at the time...I guess the drawback is that you don't train the sport for a long time period so that might affect your progress a little...but other than that I think it's a good way to approach all sports for the younger kids and teenagers.
