Coaching

So my second season coaching soccer is over.  It's kind of bittersweet.  Coaching for 3 hours straight on Tuesdays and Thursdays was tough.  But, it was also rewarding and fun.  Especially my U8 team, they were motivated and wanted to learn.  I wish I could have had more time to teach passing and technique to them.  By the end of the season they were playing well and coaching each other on the field.  It is Interesting to me, that in the coaching class I took we were instructed not to force the kids to pass.  But, that doesn't mean you shouldn't teach passing to U6 and U8 girls.  Just teach it to them and let them figure it out on the field.  If I did anything this year I hope I helped the girls enjoy soccer and I also hope they all play again next year.  That would make my job a success.  

So now I am free to ride on Thursday nites again. Look for me at the Hub ride soon.  I will be the one attacking backwards.

It's been a year?

Wow it's been a long time.  I am going to give this blog thing another try.  This is more about my life and less about racing however.  Hope you like it.  I went thru and deleted the other blogs I was following, that weren't updated in forever.  Sorry if this is you.
