Plainfield Practice

Was awesome today! In the words of Coach and Founder Myra Sack, '10:

"Plainfield practice was a huge success today! It was an absolutely perfect afternoon and all seven kids were full of energy and animation. We jumped into a few "get to know you" games. The Plainfield crew didn't like the fact that Myra is a Yankees fan and let her know it, too. (Let's just say cones were thrown and water was spilled.) We then warmed up with a quick game of link tag. Ali and Eric had quite the rivalry going and ended up chasing each other way out of bounds--Eric came out victorious with an exciting last second tag. After a quick breather and water break, we split the group into two teams, the "Peaches" and "Pears," and challenged the young athletes to a few tricky relay races. The races were so close we couldn't even declare a winner so both teams got the gold! Practice ended with some steal the bacon and a huge game of 4 v 4 soccer! We couldn't help ourselves and plus, Johanna said soccer was her favorite sport by far! Practice concluded with a Plainfield cheer and a secret handshake that we can't reveal here.... "

Sounds like a blast! I wish I was there... I want to know about that secret handshake!
