Soccer Hooligans!

Oskar and Asha have recently joined a 'Little Kickers' soccer club which we now go to every Sunday morning at the respectable time of 10am. Still enough time still for a cuppa in bed before starting the day....which is important on a Sunday!

The kids love it.  They don't actually play soccer, but the coaches teach the kids to listen to direction, take turns and develop balls skills & coordination. It is so good for them in many ways. By the end of the 45 minute session the kids have pretty much run out of patience, but we are so impressed at how the coaches keep their attention for so long.

Check out their Soccer Kit! It is pretty cute. 





These will be the last photos of them at Soccer, as the 'Child Protection Laws' actually prevent us from using cameras at such sporting events.....which we were promptly reminded of when we started taking photos on the first day. Really?! I also heard that kid's sporting games these days are not scored, so the kids don't know who won or lost......Seriously!? I am sure they know...and if not I will tell them. Winning and losing is a part of life kids should get used to and understand from the start.....in my opinion.
