Floor Hockey

We signed G. and A. up for floor hockey at the YMCA a while back and they had their first games on Sunday. Both of them had a blast.

A. is in the 4-5 age group, which is a riot to watch. Most of her game consisted of a stampeding mass of legs and foam-covered plastic hockey sticks chasing the ball up and down the court more or less at random.

G. is in the age 6-7 group, and his game was a little more like an actual hockey game. Still, the defense forgot they were supposed to be protecting the goal from time to time, and there was no real sense of strategy or positions yet. The kids can hit the ball a lot further, though, so they don't clump up so much.
