Football marking

General 

Elliott was in good spirits today after school and said he'd had a good day. During football training he lost concentration a little bit after the first half an hour and he was messing around a bit not listening to Sally. At one point Sally asked him to either listen or go to the corner in a nice way and he want to the corner (but soon returned!) Afterwards we talked a little bit about listening to Sally when it's the time to listen to Sally and having fun with team mates at the right time. 

Activities

After school we went home and had toast for tea before he got changed for football training. Then he read some of his Horrid Henry school book before we headed off to football training. At training they spent about three quarters of an hour in their teams with Martin coaching Tigers and Sally coaching Panthers. Sally focused on practicing marking opposition players and staying goal side of them and they did some defence verses attack. Then for the last quarter of an hour they played a game against the Tigers which was good, although there are more of them in each team than in actual games so it was a bit all over the place. After football we went home for a quick bath before bed time.
