Connor had his first practice yesterday.  We all arrived at the a school field 15 minutes prior to practice time.  Connor was excited to get geared up.  We briefly got introduced with the teammates; it turned out that two of them are in Connor’s new class and one from his previous school.  Then the boys were off to practice.  For this first lesson, there was a visiting coach from Scotland and she seemed to be doing a serious job teaching the boys.  Yesterday was one of the hottest day; it was close to 100 degree while the kids ran around kicking the balls.  The parents and siblings were sitting in the shade to watch the practice.  Connor seemed to follow the instructions and did his best.  Then Logan and I were off to his piano class.  According to Stuart, they played a 4×4 a soccer game.  Connor was a bit too tentative, but overall did ok.  All the kids lasted the entire hour playing in the major heat.
