You had so much fun on Sunday as we were ALL introduced to a brand new sport because you are such an adventure-seeker. I could not be more proud of your willingness to try things – all kinds of things! This time Siobhan asked if you wanted to try your hand at lacrosse, and you said Sure!!

Coaches Ashley, Mary and Amanda did an awesome job preparing for the 1-hour practice. Ashley and Mary are graduating from college this year and are going to be elementary school teachers, so they were GREAT with you and the rest of the group of 1st and 2nd graders!! Amanda is a high school senior – also totally fun! Some things they had you do (from what I could tell from the sideline):
* Pass and catch with a partner at a certain distance
* Stretch and do push ups
* Do a game where you stood in a tight circle, let go of your stick and grabbed another girl’s (from the left or right)
* Laps around the field
* More catch and throw – with coaches working more closely with individuals

* A final game of “Knights, Horse, and Caveliers” – in which you and a partner (a new girl name Olivia/Libby ran around. When the coaches yelled one of those three, you struck one of three poses. You and Libby laughed so hard and ended up winning the game!!

After practice, you and S stayed on the field to help the coaches move the nets. After S challenged you to run and extra lap, you and S challenged Coach Ashley to run one more and off you went!!

Go you, Little Girl!! Go you!!
