Tyson had to explain a lot of rules to them. They all play but most of them don't play with the real rules. They have never had an opportunity to learn.
Here's Tyson explaining out of bounds and off sides. haha
Handing out the new soccer jersey to the kids.
Little Chang is one of Ty's favorites. He is so small that the shirt was like a dress on him. They only had one size to fit all. Chang didn't care he was still super excited about his jersey. :-)
Each of the 4 house parents for the boys are going to be the coaches for the different teams. They all got to have a little draft to divide the teams and pick which team they wanted to be. I think they are just as excited about the games as the kids are.
What a fun time and it was only the first day. The boys have been practicing so much that there is no more grass on the field it's all dirt now. hahaha The first game is tomorrow night (Friday). All the kids are so excited even the girls are excited to cheer the boys on. Ty's mom said we can make popcorn and make a real event out of the night. Each week every team plays. After 6 or 8 weeks (I can't remember) Tyson is going to give a trophy to the winning team.

It's great to see him have the chance to interact with them. Sports is a great way to connect since they don't speak English yet.
