Soccer

Today starts a new era for the Heinisch family.  Doug was offered the head coaching position for our high school girls' soccer team.  He readily excepted and has already begun working on his plans for practice, summer leagues, etc.

Soccer is not new to the Heinisch family.  Doug played in high school and ever since I met him I have heard countless arguments between him and his brother, Phil, on which of their teams were better.  Doug coached a YMCA youth team in college and has been actively involved in our local youth soccer program for fourteen years.  All four Heinisch children have played in this league - Cam and Meg still do.  Cal even played on the JV team last fall.

It will be busy for us as Doug still coaches Cam and Meg, but I am happy for him.  I know he will do a great job.  I am excited that he'll be coaching Meg when she reaches high school age.  The girls' team is in a rebuilding stage.  It will be fun to watch them grow.  Glad that he accepted the challenge.
