Coaching U8 soccer (with world's best co-coach, CCC) is one of my absolute favorites. This particular group of not especially creatively named players - I think we probably ended on Green Chilis since they had been the Red Chilis the two previous times - was such a pleasure to coach. They progressed and developed a ton as individuals as well as in their work as a team, playing together. It really is a delight getting to hang with these kiddos. I'm a lucky duck.
