This fall Lucas played soccer.
With most things he was cautious at first,
but really grew to look forward to practice and games!
Lucas' team was called The Chameleons. The games were 3 on 3 with no goalies.
Lucas isn't assertive when he plays sports. A little timid in fact.
We think it's because he is so much bigger and he doesn't want to hurt the other kids.
He became more and more assertive as the season went along... which was great to see!
His coach was great with the team and really encouraged Lucas to get out there and play!
Towards the end of the season his coach was trying to get the other kids to pass the ball to Lucas so he could score a goal. He came soooo close many many times!
It was cute to see his coach rooting for him every game!
One of the last games, Lucas took the ball all the way down the field and then passed it to his teammate just in time for him to score a goal. Lucas was very proud of his assist!
I think we will definitely do soccer again. It was a great experience for Lucas.
Thank you family for supporting Lucas by coming to his games! He loved having you there!
Blurry... but look at the determination on his face!
