#1 William

William had his first soccer practice tonight. The practice went mostly well. He, at moments, lost interest but, his coach really helped to encourage him to get back into practice--overall it was a success. They worked on stopping the ball with their toe and foot, dribbling, kicking in a straight line, and throwing the soccer ball correctly. The part William lost interest in was practicing stopping the ball with his toe and foot--that was not his favorite.

Practicing the soccer throw. The coach had them throw the ball on his head and knock him over. William LOVED this part and couldn't wait for his turn to come around again.
