This is something the Soccer Mom’s will get a kick out of. So we’re taking our U10 team to the Recreational State Cup and the team mom’s are almost as excited about the trip as the kids are. One of the team moms offered to setup hotel accommodations, which was great. Like any coach, if a team mom offers to help do something, I’m thrilled. "We’ll take care of ALL the arrangements" they said. How cool is that?
Well, I was informed at practice today that the mom’s had arranged to go out dancing the night we arrive so the dad’s could ‘be with the team’ at the hotel to ‘get them ready for the tournament’. I’ve been had.

Yeah and to rub, er, salt in the wound, the words ‘many margaritas’ were mentioned. Twice. Sigh…

Whoa…that was some fancy footwork! Maybe a “Soccer Moms Gone Wild” video is in the future…hey, that would be a great fundraiser!!!

HAHAHAHAHA That’s outstanding. I think I may have to suggest that! Or maybe a calendar.
Yeah, it’s official now. I’m going to coach purgatory.
