soccer no more

Sam has never really liked playing soccer. He has watched his brother play all kinds of sports through the years though. He has also seen that after playing said sport, he receives a trophy at the end of the season. That was enough motivation to try playing his first organized sport. In my book, he wins just for trying. It is so much for a kid with vision issues to try and watch a ball in play while 15 other kids are running around him. He just looks lost out there, but it does serve for some comic relief when he is a "wall" at goalie. Sadly, the trophy is not enough for him this year. We will re-examine the idea in the Spring when the season picks back up.
