We were very excited to learn that the City of Dana Point had soccer lessons for kids as young as 1.5 years. At the first practice on April 1 we learned why more cities dont offer sports for kids this age...its chaos! Waylon seemed very excited to play soccer, especially since his friends Jamison and Chloe were also participating. However, within minutes of practice starting, Waylon was running around the field, and playing in the baseball dug out. He refused to do any of the "drills" and only would kick the ball with extreme urging from mom and dad. After 3 practices things are about the same. I am hopeful that by the last practice he will have at least 2 minutes of focus before he runs off and plays.

Waylon and Chloe enjoy kicking the ball to one another, as long as the coach is nowhere around telling Waylon what to do.

The parents and kids warm up. Notice Waylon on the left staring at everyone, refusing to even bend over to stretch.

The most involved he was in the practice...knocking over the goal.
After practice, Waylon and Jamison enjoyed running around the basketball court.
