Spring Sports

It's hard to believe, but it is time to be thinking about spring sports, even though it is only mid-January! My boys are extremely athletic (which they got from their Father, not me! I spent my youth buried in a book!) so I'm happy they are interested in playing different sports.

Spring registration is open for soccer until the first of February and my Youngest wants to play (and has since last spring). I signed him up this week, practices begin in early February and the games begin in late February. So hard to believe!
Baseball is a yearly spring sport in our house and has been for years. Our hometown has their own baseball league and we've really enjoyed playing in this league since it is not competitive. It never really mattered who won or lost, the goal was to play baseball. My Oldest has played for the last 7 yrs and 10 seasons (including 3 fall ball leagues) with this league, unfortunately, the league in only for kids up to 12 yrs old, and my son is 13...and school ball doesn't begin until 9th grade (another 2 years away!) We will have to find a league for him to play in for the next couple of years until he can try out for the high school team.

My Youngest played his first season of T-ball this last year...he wasn't impressed. He wanted to play soccer this year, which I've already signed him up for. I'm not sure if he'll play t-ball, too or just soccer.

Track will be open for my Oldest this year. It is a sport played at his school beginning in the 7th grade and he's shown some interest in it. It will also help with baseball and possibly football (which he wants to play in the fall!) I hope he likes it.

So although it is only mid-January, decisions have to be made. It's going to be a busy Spring!
