My first soccer practice as assistant coach to a team of boys under age 6 was a lot like attempting to herd puppies! But the boys, if smiles, laughs, giggles, wrestling and rough housing are any indication, had a fabulous time! (I'm still not sure how much they learned, but they sure seemed to have a good time.) I attempted to teach kicking, passing, dribbling, and the game of soccer. They wrestled, rolled in the grass, took a lot of water breaks and rested. As I walked to my car after an hour of attempting to coach/herd 9 little soccer-playing "puppies," I had a thought I hadn't had in over two decades: I don't think I'm a poor sport, but maybe I'm too competitive to coach children?" It's why we play the game. Anything is possible, anything can happen, and we proved that again tonight." (Casey Korkus)
