EDITOR'S NOTE: After writing the blog below, I realized we actually have two additional practices in the week following Spring Break, and only then, after those, do we play our final game. So, some info below is incorrect.
During our sixth practice, we did some activities geared toward helping the players think about staying in position and getting the ball to their teammates.
I also tried to impress upon the kids that they need to focus on what I'm saying. This group gets a bit over-excited much of the time, which wastes time during practice and during those minutes between quarters in the games. But, I think this is typical for 7 and 8-year-old soccer players who are having fun.
It's hard to believe we only have ONE more practice and then, after spring break, our FINAL game of the season. I hope to see some of the same kids back next season, so we can build on what we've started this season. It has been fun.
