Soccer team practice sign up began this morning at 7:00 AM. In spite of my request to the parents of 14 other kids not a single person could be found that would agree to go stand in line to assure us a good practice time. The first guy in line arrived at 5:00 AM. The bulk of the coaches arrived between 6:00 AM and 6:30 AM. Our coach couldn't drop off his son until 7:00AM so he didn't arrive until 7:10 AM.
What we were hoping for was a 6:00 PM slot for the boys followed by a 7:00 PM slot for the girls at Celebration Park. Celebration has the right size fields for the boys but no lights for night time practices (at least not on the little fields). The earliest slot available for the boys at Celebration was 8:00 PM -- 5-year old boys practicing in the dark until 9:00 PM. Not a good option.
The girls couldn't get a field at Celebration at all so we moved both practices to Ford field. That's much more convenient for our coach but worse for me. The best time slot we could get was still 7:00 PM, so now the girls will need to be out there until 9:00 PM. This also sucks. So we signed up for both practices at the SAME TIME, 7:00 PM. We will just hope that both of the assistant coaches actually come to the practices. If no one signs up later than us on that field we will be able to stagger the girls back a little bit.
