tucson soccer: If The Frosting Isn't Moving - Go For It.
- 09/30/09 11:22 PM
Spending the better part of the day making cupcakes for my soccer kids - I knew they would be thrilled to eat them after practice. At the final whistle - they all go running and suddenly I hear shrieks and screaming, "Ants ... the ants got all over the cupcakes!" By the time I went to help, the kids organized themselves - each helping to remove the ants from the cupcakes. It was so cool - those ants weren't going to get in the way of their goal. Then there was one. The one that "Will NOT" eat any and frantically asking "what … (8 comments)
tucson soccer: Famous Last Words: I Won't Do This Again!

But here I sit typing this right after I clicked on the agreement terms to be a volunteer coach, for two teams none-the-less, with the Tanque Verde Soccer Club. Again. Why did I cave in? The kids - I can't turn my back on them! So here is to another year of … (9 comments)
tucson soccer: Home Selling OR Soccer - BOTH are Better With A Plan!
- 11/04/08 11:47 PM
"What's the Plan?" - is what all "us" coaches say to each other before soccer practices and games. It's obvious, at least with our team, what happens if we don't have a clear plan of "what will happen" - disorganization, frustration and unmet goals. Failing to plan is planning to fail. A plan does not have to involve great detail but should be written down. Soccer Planning compared to Seller Planning: How long will practice be? How long do I have to sell my house? How long are the warm ups? How much time do I need to get my house ready to sell? How long is spent doing soccer … (0 comments)
