My son asked me today why he's given oranges at half-time. In my search for an answer beyond "it's tradition I think.." I stumbled upon this article which suggests fig newtons would be a superior half-time snack. If it's good enough for Ryan Giggs, it's good enough for me. Still don't think I'll be able to get my kids to eat them though.

This blog is Inspired by the U6 Princess Rockstar Soccer Team. I met them this fall when I reluctantly became their assistant coach. My hesitation was not for lack of love for the game, but rather lack of confidence in my coaching abilities. I have found the experience energizing as well as immensely enjoyable. I hope that the content of this blog will inspire potential coaches to come forward and volunteer, as well as provide support and direction to those who have already signed on.
