Curtis was nervous and excited about soccer. The night before he kept asking repeatedly when his soccer game was. He did pretty well for his first ever game. During the practice beforehand he did a great job of dribbling and scoring against another teammate. At the game, he didn’t kick the ball much, but learned a bunch and got all sweaty.

We’ve been watching Peter (who is getting a break from playing soccer after goofing off a bit too much last time), and it’s a bit hard to go backward. Peter’s age was finally getting it, and now we are back to telling kids which way the goal is. I do think Curtis has a lot of potential to be really good at soccer, so we’ll see how it goes.
