Soccer Practice

Courtney has joined the TopSoccer team here in Elk Grove.  She practices once a week and will start games in September on Saturdays.  She is really good at kicking the ball and blocking the goal.

 Courtney loves to wear her red "practice" shirt and so when she got this red water bottle she was excited to make it her "soccer practice" water bottle.

The team she is on is a team for kids with special needs.  They have "buddies" out on the field (older kids) that help them play.  Courtney loves getting a buddy to play with her each week, but has also enjoyed making some new friends.  She is nervous about starting to play games because she doesn't like the idea that everyone will be watching her.
