Cue the music, and get ready....we are just hours away from my coaching debut. Kickoff is tomorrow at 4pm, and that will be the moment of truth. We are a little banged up and will be short handed for the first part of the game. I've only got 11 eligible players because of missing practice violations and injuries. Good thing I don't have any fewer, but the first half could be interesting. The entire JV team will be made up of 8th and 7th graders. When we play our game tomorrow we will face a AA opponent - Sturgis. In soccer, your class is based on skill level, not school size. That is why in our first 7 games we will play schools with enrollments of A or AA standings with the High School Activities Association.
Also, getting warmed up for some refereeing. More assignments are coming out to me, and those will keep me quite busy within practice, games, and refereeing games and working my regular job. I guess I'll have to catch up on sleep in the winter, because it won't be happening in the fall with the schedule I'm keeping so far, but that's part of the adventure. I'd better get some sleep to be ready for the big debut tomorrow, so we'll see you out there at 4pm.
