Soccer

Our hero has recently developed a love of soccer. Perhaps it's because his school buddies play with the local league. At any rate, for several months now, he was determined to take up soccer this summer. As the weather warmed up, I investigated the local soccer club to discover that every other parent had beat me to the list and the registrations were already closed. I was still in a winter coat for heavens sakes! He was delighted to hear that he was signed up for a few beginner soccer lessons with the city-run program. Today they called to tell me it has been cancelled due to low registration. Poor guy! I'll have to start looking again.
