Waters' Sports Update

We had to make a mad dash across town to WCCC for Ryder's first ever basketball game.  He is playing on the 2nd Grade Spurs Team with boys mostly from his school.  One is actually in his class.  His coach is one boys grandpa with the assistant being his mom (who is a 1st grade teacher at his school)

They were excited to play and to have fun.  The whistle blew and the boys came running.

Do you know what you are doing?
I am not sure.
The ball is in motion.
and he scored the first basket for his team.
It was a crazy game full of traveling, double dribbles, and even under leg dribbling.  The other team had taller boys and a little more experience.  The final score was 36 to 8.  Ryder scored 4 of those points and was all smiles.  He was jumping for joy that he made the the first goal for his team.  The girls promptly told him that they are called baskets or points in this game.

So much to learn with this new sport but the eagerness he shows to playing he can only succeed as long as I can keep people from telling him that he is too short to play.

So everyone be warned this Mom can be dangerous if need be!!!!!
