Soocer Time


Mattie is driven. Driven to succeed and driven to be active. He loves being in the midst of all the action. He is very passionate about the sport of soccer and I was eager to enroll him into a good class this year. Last year was a horrible experience with the Orting Community parks soccer team we were on. I was leary to consider going back this year.
My friend, Kree is coaching the kids this year and most of the kids are in the co-op preschool class with Mattie. He knows his coach and his team mates! This has been the best experience for all of us. Kree is amazing, she is so encouraging to the kids. You can tell she loves coaching them and being out with them to share in their joys and frustrations. She is patiently teaching them not to touch the ball with their hands but guide it with their foot. My son is one that needs to learn that vital lesson in soccer.
She is also teaching the parents lessons as well as we get out and help her at the pratice times! =) I am so glad that Mattie has this opportunity.
