Two Outta Three

We had high hopes for Noah to enjoy the Nashville Predators sponsored GOAL kids hockey clinic here in the area this week and next.  I signed the kiddo up, we showed up for the equipment fitting, and Josh got him back the next day for the first session.


Sadly, the first session did not go well.  It went badly.  It went so poorly, in fact, that we're not even gonna bother taking the kid back.  While they advertised and assured us that this was designed for kids with no skating experience, the reality was that it was not.  And poor Noah fell and fell and fell and then the tears started rolling and NONE of the ridiculous teenagers (so-called coaches) were there to help him out. 

Oh well!  We had a great t-ball season and a wonderful swimming summer. Two outta three events ain't bad!  We'll practice up on skating again in the winter ... sans 100 degree heat and a ton of gear strapped to his body. Good try anyway, Noah!!  At least you have a new hockey stick, jersey, and mouth-guard to show for your troubles! :)
