The pic on the left is of him kicking the ball back into play from the sideline. Then his team and his two coaches. They play their games at the Fairchild AFB Youth Center.
Nathan had his first indoor soccer game this last Saturday. They don't keep score but there were some good goals made by both teams. Nate made one goal and he was really happy. All the kids were bunched up on one side of the field and Nate kicked it through some legs, it rolled across to his team's goal. The look on his face was priceless. There are only 5 kids on his team and only three play at one time. This team has three 7 year olds and two 8 yr olds. You can see in the team picture the size difference. Nate has shot up a lot the last couple of months. He is all legs and his clumsiness has increased but he was out there trying his best. He tripped several times while running, poor kid. They did some exercises before the game and he was the only boy who hadn't learned how to skip yet. It didn't seem to bother him and the other kids didn't seem to notice so that's good. He had fun and did well so it was a great game for him. He says he is going to play outdoor soccer this spring, as well as skate. He hates being bored so maybe having these two things to focus on will keep him out of trouble.
