A Loving Soccer Season To Begin
Chapter 4
The girls had the ball first and we did tap touches on the ball while the guys did 15 crunches and then we switch. So far so great. That's attractive I was already sweating, it was 85 degrees today. At least it's better to be hot out than cold. Finally we did partner drills. We were going to do two touch passes. So I passed the ball to Caleb, he did his two touches and passed it to me, we kept doing this until the coach switched it to one touch. I tried to keep control of the ball for this drill because I had a very strong kick. Caleb was pretty good, he was both a lefty and righty, same with me. Everyone then backed far away from each other, we were getting ready to punt. We had to punt the ball to our partner and catch it. Caleb was first and I have to say it was a pretty good punt. As it went to me I let the ball bounce and I caught it. When I punted it the ball went right towards him. After punting we got back together to work on chest. "Hey your really good." Caleb complimented me."Thanks. Your not so bad yourself." I told him and he smiled which made me smile. The boys had the ball first this time, they were going to toss it to us, under hand style, so we can hit it with our chest. The coach blew his whistle to let us know we can start. "Ready?" Caleb asked me and I nodded. He tossed it to me and I missed."Sorry. That was my fault." I told him and I looked down. "No it was my fault I threw it too soft." Caleb assured me. We tried again and it was perfect and we kept it that way till it was the guys turn. The coach told us to take a couple steps back for they guys we were going to toss it to them and they were going to hit with their chest and then kick it back to the girls. I tossed it and he hit it with his chest and kicked it to me and I caught. We were doing great, then we took a water break. I was so tired and hot but yet still excited that my partner was Caleb, he was so sweet and supportive. We practiced headers, and then went back to passing again. The coach said that we were going to have a scrimmage boy against girls. Before the scrimmage we took another water break it was only 4 yes this was going to great.
