Friday was Radley's last day of soccer which included a "celebration ceremony" at the end. (More on that later). We got the girls dressed and ready to go cheer on big brother. By 9:45am it was already 100 degrees so this is the biggest smile she would give me.
Radley's team finally got to wear the "pennies" that day which he had been asking about all week. Clearly the moment he put one on, he wanted to take it off. Something about it being too big and looking like a dress and male soccer players obviously don't wear dresses.
:)
He had a full audience on Friday and I thoroughly enjoyed watching Ryan keep his mouth shut.
Two hours is a long time for these kids to be out in the sun, but they all had smiles on their faces and each attempted to play as hard as they could all week.
And clearly made time for Gatorade.
10:45 finally rolled around and it was time for the "celebration ceremony" which consisted of each Coach holding a microphone and calling out their campers names. Unless they forgot one because they didn't bring a piece of paper with them and yes, that happened to some poor little 5 year old girls.
What you were expecting something more? Me too.
Radley's team tried to play it cool when it was their turn.
And just like that, his first official sports camp was over. We realized on the last day that he was actually in a group with 6-year-olds who each had been playing for a year longer than him, so way to go, Rad!
He LOVED his Coach and had a lot of fun - the two goals that Coach G had set at the beginning of the week.
He has been practicing all the "tricks" he learned since Friday - you know those skills that weren't really "playing soccer, Mommy". He keeps telling me that this is what he is going to do in the fall and I can't wait to see it!
