Coming to a pitch near you

At some point in time, Michael Jordan was given his first basketball, Wayne Gretzky tried on his first pair of skates, and some weird Russian kid was probably given his first Chess set. If you listened to my brother Cohen, you'd get quickly get the impression that he would add April 12, 2011 into that conversation as the first time he played semi-competitive soccer. I hardly think you'll see him in Europe anytime soon, but I suppose he did pretty good for his first time out.

Showing some finesse
Wait, you can't use hands?
Getting some quality instruction
Pretty like Beckham, skilled like Messi
All joking aside, tonight was pretty fun for Cohen, and it was definitely fun to watch him. He started playing in the 3-5 year old soccer league, and even though he's only 3, he was close to as big as anyone out there, and definitely the cutest.
Tonight was less of a competitive game, and more of a practice / skills competition. There were 3 teams on the field going thru different drills. We caught one of them on video below. Check it out!
Roaring like a bear is effective

Soccer is EXHAUSTING!
Using only 1 soccer ball is for wimps...
After practice was over, I had a chance to get out and kick the ball around a bit. I tried to wait until the older kids left so that they didn't feel bad when they saw my magic. Maybe I can get a waiver to play early. I'm pretty sure I can hold my own.
Sounds like Cohen will be playing at 4:30 the next few Tuesdays, so if you wanna come watch with us, let mommy and daddy know!
Board play
You can't stop this!
See ya next time!
