The Basketball Season Begins

Meg and I had our first 7th girls grade Milford basketball practice last night.  There are twelve girls on the team - two of which have never played before, two that are lacking in skills or motivation, and one that tries very hard, but is struggling to keep up.  Thus, I have seven girls to work with right now.  Meg has been playing very well.  If that continues we may be able to pick up a win or two.  It is hard for any Milford team to compete as we are such a small middle school compared to most.  The high school coaches came tonight to help with practice and have a parent meeting.  It is nice that they are doing that.

I did have to laugh tonight at the beginning of practice.  The 7th grade boys had the practice time after we did.  They must have decided that I wouldn't mind if they watched.  I kicked them out.  Later when they came back with their coach to change, he had to tell them to stop peeking out the locker door to oggle at the girls.  Life of a middle schooler - got to love it.
