Go Wildcats!

This is Taylor’s second year at playing soccer for the Spears Family YMCA 3-4 year old league.  This year she played for the Wildcats.

Here is the whole team with Coach Marc.  He has been great with the kids.  He is so patient and never over the top about the game.  He believes that they are all there to just have fun.  He actually owns two of the Cold Stone Creamery stores in Greensboro—a GREAT connection for Taylor’s sake :)

Actually after last week’s game, Marc treated the whole team and their families to some yummy ice cream on a really hot afternoon!  That might have been the highlight of the whole season for Taylor.  She actually did play in the game that day.  Her new favorite thing to do is play goalie.  She keeps telling us that she only likes to play soccer when it is just the red team because she doesn’t like the other teams.  She is really good playing at home and in practice but it is something about running up and down the field chasing the ball during the games with all the other kids that bothers her.  I don’t think she likes it when someone else gets the ball from her.  She is definitely still learning and figuring it all out.  Overall I would say she has done great and come a long way from the first game when she refused to play.
