Coaching

I'm coaching my son's U10 soccer team. The gift to me is watching kids get it, and succeed. For one the success is simply not allowing himself to be knocked over. For another it is not stopping after kicking the ball. Another has to get over a self image that tells him his whole family is made up of nerds. They are learning to play. We are 5 - 2 on the season. But that matters far less than the joy on a boys face after he makes a play he could never have made at the beginning of the season. It is all a gift...
