137. Soccer, Soccer and more Soccer!

Yesterday was another busy day with lots of soccer events! Anthony had a semi-private soccer training session in the morning. He came back tired but happy. He really likes this trainer and his trainer knows how to get the best out of him. Something we have been struggling with for years! Unfortunately, this trainer doesn't coach Anthony's age group anymore.
In the afternoon, Nicholas had a scrimmage at Central Park. That was painful to watch... The boys lost by 4 or 5. I stopped counting after 3. But it's not the loss that was painful but how the coach and the players handled it; The coach yelled the whole game and the boys ignored him and at the end, it's like they didn't even care! This is Nicholas' second year with this coach and while last year had it's ups and downs, overall it was pretty good. Nicholas learned a lot. But this year, the team is at a stand still and I think that this coach has given us everything he can give. Unfortunately, he doesn't see it that way!
On a lighter note, Christina's team was invited to the SCV Blue Heat opening game. They got to walk on the field with the players and played a scrimmage at half time against another AYSO U10 team. Christina had a great time despite the fact that she couldn't play due to her broken arm!
