Michael's first team sport was Basketball. We signed him up with the Ft Sam league. It was a rough start getting him to not cling on to us at practice. He did have a change in coaches right after the first practice so that unsettled him a bit. He doesn't do well with change. Once we got going into the season though he gradually did better. We ended up having the smallest team with either 3 or 4 players showing up for games and practices. Michael enjoyed being active and learning how to play basketball. He is still working on learning how to dribble but he improved on his shots. In his last game Joe ended up having to coach last minute. Michael played his best game blocking a few shots and making a few baskets. It was definitely the most excited and fun he had all season long. All the kids were able to keep their jerseys and received a medal. Here are a few pictures from his last game.
Trying to block a shot.
Not sure if he was successful on this one or not.
The girl on his team took the motherly role sometimes :)
Of course the kids are funny and do silly things since they are still learning the game.
Notice they are on opposite teams yet they are both playing defense.
Very pleased with his medal
He didn't want to take it off all day
