Elin's first day in soccer class

First day of soccer class through the city of Irvine at Woodbury community park was rained out.

The following weekend (today) on Saturday the 17th at 11 a.m., Elin's class went off without a hitch.  The parents surrounded the kids, snapping pictures and videos at a furious pace like paparazzi, me included.

Halfway through practice, Elin told her mom in Swedish "the coach said they should all go pee".  While the coaches would give the kids water breaks from time to time, there was no mention of a pee break, so that was a false alarm.

Elin began drifting away 2/3rds of the class.  She appeared to lose interest, so I stepped in and accompanied her through the rest of the exercises.

The video below is of Johanna disrupting the class by collecting most of the cones used as markers for kids to maneuver around.  She appeared to be having more fun than many of the kids.  She even kicked a ball or two  quite adeptly.
