W was a blur of activity today. I suppose it's the life of a teenager! Hubby is coaching W's recreational basketball team. They plot and plan all of December at which boys they are going to recruit to play and hope that things work out in the draft the way they want it! They're funny! This morning at 11am was the first practice.
We all met at home for lunch and then headed off to W's indoor soccer game. This was hubby first experience with the game. W played last year but hubby was in the hospital recovering all last season. Indoor soccer is much faster, and alot different than out door soccer. There are only team and they play both defense and offense, they play off the walls, with very few time stoppage. It's quick, 2 twenty minute halves, people subbing in and out while play is still going on... did I mention how fast the play was???
It's always fun to watch W play keeper. He's good and it's fun to hear the crowd around me says so (not knowing who I am). It's also fun to watch the frustration of the other team grow as the ball is shot but doesn't go in. W's team lost (they always do) but they kept the score in single digits. I need to also say W doesn't ever get to play with these kids, they are all of a rival school, but they asked him to be their keeper last year. It's a fun way to stay in shape in the winter.
Then W was off to play Futsal (another type of indoor soccer) with the kids from his high school team. They have a retire professional player from Brazil that has worked with them for years. When he heard that W was not going to play College soccer he got upset with W and I believe gave him a (gentle but firm) lecture! Thank you Derci! Then told him of a position on his sponsored Futsal team has a back up keeper. Derci had to check with the sponsors before officially offering him position. Derci really likes W and wants good things for him!
When W came home and collapsed in bed at 9:30pm.
