10 Things I Learned Coaching Soccer...
Saturday, May 01, 2010 Edit This 1 Comment »
1. Lightening is the only true way for an organization to call a game.
2. While a 3 year old is cute to watch running on the field, he is not as cute when he gets the ball taken away from the opposing team and have a full-fledged temper tantrum on the field.
3. If a child has to go to the bathroom during practice, then don't make him wait. He will pull down his pants and pee on anyone near him.
4. Staying in the entire 8 minute quarter is relative.
5. Playing goalie is something everyone but the actual goalie wants to do during game time.
6. The coach runs more than all other players on the field...combined.
7. Making "hi-ya!" noises while being goalie does improve the effectiveness of the position.
8. Telling a child 15 times that the goal is "that way" will not mean he or she will remember the 16th time he or she has the ball.
9. The trophy is not made of real gold.
10. Watching your child run down the field kicking the ball and giggling like crazy while everyone chases him is the most awesome thing ever.
