Soccer coach

I'm coaching soccer again. Two teams this time instead of 'crazy' three. I love it. I love being with my kids, sports, and helping kids in general. The season usually runs six weeks. And by the last week the kids (and the coach!!!!) are pretty much ready to be done. Well, this season the coordinators announced the season would be 12 weeks instead of the usual six... without consulting the volunteer coaches.

Oh this has been L-O-N-G! And I am so ready to be done! By the last couple weeks, the kids are so comfortable with me that some of the... um, not so well behaved kids, can be down right stinkers to me. We are also involved in two other sports. And on top of that, we are doing HUGE projects on our house.

So here's the rundown:

  • Tired, whiny kids who want to be done with soccer (my own that I can discipline) - Check
  • Sassy, naughty, patient-trying kids (on the soccer team that I can NOT spank) - Check
  • Games and practices twice a night (of varying sports) , almost every night of the week - Check, check
  • Dirty house because of huge projects - CHECK ... ug!
Oh the end is in sight... I just hope it comes soon!

Man, I don't know how you are doing that! I think I might go a little crazy!!! Way to go soccer coach:) For all it is worth, Cody is playing T-ball this year and I absolutely LOVE his coach. He is so nice, and really works with the kids. I appreciate the time he puts into the sport and Cody's individual needs. I bet you are one of those awesome coaches--and you may never know the difference you are making:) Hang in there, and Good luck!!!
