Soccer Training

You're stretching your muscles.

 Then Coach says:

" Lets go running from the tree at the end of the fence to the baseball diamond."

So we do as we are asked and we all make it in record time.

" Now lets do toe touches with the soccer ball while keeping it in the same place."

We all do it and are having fun with it then my coach ( mom) says :" lets learn the penguin walk.

We all get in line and we waddle with the ball in between our feet to keep it from getting taken.

Now its monkey walk my favorite part.

We all get in a line and put in one foot in front of the other persons and after we get the hang of it we are moving like crazy.

Now time to kick ball back and forth between us to see if we can stop it with our knees and feet.

Soccer training is brutal yet also fun.

What more could you want then the best people to be on your team.

We are now practicing kicking goals and everyone makes it yet I miss.

I am so sad that my friends come over and talk to me.

They tell me " go try again. you will make it."

I go back to the goal and start shooting I miss again.

I try one more time and I hear cheering they are rooting me on to score another goal.

I try again I finally make the goal I have been waiting for.

Soccer training I shall never forget what it has taught me about respect, to get respect you have to give it.

Having friends cheering you on you make it no matter what, even if you miss just get back up and go again.

Now time for the game farewell let's go win this game.
