Call me coach

I received a call last night that Sugar's soccer team needed a coach. Apparently the parent who was the coach last season had declined to coach again (he might be out of town for work a lot and didn't want to commit since his schedule is somewhat up in the air) but the soccer coordinator didn't know that so she was trying to fill the slot at the last minute. Sucker that I am I hesitantly said yes. Something like "If you can't find anyone else call me back..." I got a call  back. Luckily I know the game (played from age 8-22ish) but it has been years and 4 kids since I've truly played. Also I don't like 'teaching' or being in front of people, even kids (just ask our Little Flowers coordinator). So I am now the soccer coach for Sugar's team. Well, I should say Sugar and Boo since I was able to move Boo up from Kinder league to U-8. 

Sorry Renee but our first practices are the week you are in town—Tues and Thurs nights will no longer contain any fun. 
ARGH...

2 people are laughing with me:

I bet Renee will have fun helping you coach and/or help w/ the kiddos. You'll be great! Way to be part of the solution. :)
