Soccer
Wow!!!!!! We had our soccer meeting the other night and there were 53 boys there!!!! Oh, did I mention that I am coaching soccer at my high school this year? Man, I am sure I am ready for this. If I didn’t have another quandary, here is this one…
I haven’t coached soccer at this level. I coached my daughter’s team when she was three. All that I had to do was teach them to dribble, how to pass, and which direction the goal was!!!! How hard was that? Soccer at this level of competition is not going to be easy.
Here is the other problem involved with all of this; I am a football and basketball player!!! I did not play soccer at any level other then in gym class. I love American Football!!! I truly loved basketball when I played. Soccer really wasn’t that big when I was growing up. It became big in the 90’s, so that was past my prime.
Well, I am predicting that we are going 0-18. LOL No, I hope that we at least win 9 games. If we make it at least .500 I will be okay with that. I don’t like to lose, so these boys better be ready. The other coach said he thinks we could have a better year then I was guessing. Who knows, but these kids are going to have to perform of me. I won’t accept mediocrity.
GO PIRATES!!!!!!!!!

at least at this level most of the kids know how to play. you just need to give them strategy and guidance. which are interchangeable for all sports really.
speaking of sports...a certain junior (!!!!) in hs, had 3 tackles, one for a for loss, 2 sacks, and rushed qb 2 more times last night. woo hoo
I find that no matter what leve people are at in a sport... with a team sport like soccer. Teamwork and team spirit goes a long way. The more time they spend together on the feild the better youll see who works well with who.. after seeing what kinds of skills they have :)
I think coaching would be so much fun!
Have a blast.
