Football training

General 

Elliott was good today. Right at the end of football he blocked a hard shot and was upset because the ball hurt which was a shame because he enjoyed the rest of the session. Also his cough has got louder and just before bed time he said his ear was hurting so I'll monitor that. 
 

Activities

In the morning we went to football training at Woodford Park. Luckily we were able to borrow some shin pads and there were about 20 boys there including Adam, James and Javier. They did some agility exercises to begin with and then some passing and tackling exercises and Elliott really got in to them and his passing is really improving and getting quicker:


After the exercises they played a game and Elliott played at the back and in goal. He did some good tackling and some good passing but was a bit tired by the time they played. Also some of the boys had boots on which made it easier for them on the grass so by the time he blocked the shot and got hurt he'd had enough and we left just as the session was finishing. After we got home we had pasta and sausages for lunch.

After lunch we watched a Scooby Doo movie on DVD and then it was time for his swimming lesson. There were only 4 people at his swimming lesson and they practiced on their fronts and their backs. He enjoyed the lesson and afterwards had a shower. After we got home we made pancakes for tea and he especially enjoyed watching me flip the pancakes. Then he got changed for bed and read his school book ""Hola-Board Havoc" to himself before watching Teen Titans on the iPad in bed. Just before I said good night he told me his ear was hurting but he went to sleep quickly and didn't seem to be in too much discomfort.
