This weekend Lily started pre-K micro soccer. It is structured so the girls have a 25 minute practice, then a 25 minute game. Soccer is pretty new to Lily so the explanation of corner kicks seemed to go over her head. However when she got home, she explained to us why and how to do a corner kick. Amazing.
There were also some little girls who likely had older brothers because they were very aggressive and masters of ball handling already. Lily enjoyed the experience which was the most important part. The only challenge came when hearing the soft-spoken coaches who had no idea what Lily's cochlear implants were until after the game.
Next time, we plan to bring the FM to help Lily hear the voice of the coach a little better. You can see in the picture that Lily is likely missing what the male coach in the middle was talking about. I think the female coach was doing a little "translating" for the blue team.
And now with Lily's Neptunes, if it happens to rain during a game....NO problem!
inspiring!
