Great day today, had 4 sessions and had awesome weather, probably about 80 and sunny and a nice cool breeze.
6:30 breakfast club followed by breakfast then 9:30 session, lunch, 2:45 session, dinner, and the kids had their phones for about an hour before our last session at 9 pm.
Off to bed as they are exhausted but still very excited. Some motivational chats and it must have worked as most of them are going off and working on things on their own with any free time they have. Amazing how much they enjoy the soccer ball when their is no TV, phone, computer, electronic games, etc, just like the good old days, lol.
Great group so far and excited for the next day.
Food is awesome as today was pasta day and from an Italian perspective, it was very good. No snacks so kids are eating large portions for all 3 meals.
No problems sleeping and assume that will continue too.
Friday is more of the same with our last 4 sessions a day training before we play our first games on Saturday.
Also, visit our FB page for Stars 'n Stripes as we are posting pics there daily.
Only negative today was loads of sit ups for being late, leaving items behind on the bus, including a fanny pack with money and a passport, wow, I will let you wonder if that was your kid or not but it did cost 5000 sit ups and a little pain and suffering but some lessons are tougher than others.
No issues with kids missing names either which is awesome.
More tomorrow,
Ciao
