RE: Soccer Mom - Got it goin' on

in Guitar4 years ago

Can you share the site? Sounds interesting for sure.

I know all too well about how much time gets eaten when my son also went to play soccer since the summer. I started as a spectator and ended up their team-coach with 2 training-sessions and 1 match haha.

Hey @thetimminator - https://remixpacks.ru/ is the website. Now it is a Russian website and the download links are all in Russian, so take care! I've downloaded 2 and so far so good.

I've been a team manager before but I have 0 soccer knowledge so have not been given the responsibility of coaching or even linesman. My son was in NPL league pre-covid which is a higher-ish Australian league. His coach was well know for his coaching ability, but unfortunately also known for throwing tables and punching walls. Have to admit I'm glad he's gone back to his old club while he finishes his year 12 studies.

I can't see you doing any of that kind of thing as a coach. All your aggression comes out on the guitar! 😁

haha, when he joined his soccer club (he's 7 now) they had a lot of kids joining and not enough trainers for the teams so I figured ... if I'm going to watch every training then I might as well help out. I was already playing with him during the first lockdown last year before he joined the club and I figured that it would be somewhat similar but only with a few more kids. With their age ... I was so wrong haha. But I do enjoy it much more that I anticipated. I even started a course at the Dutch soccer federation (KNVB) so I know more of what to do when he transfers to the under 8 group at the end of the season.

But indeed, sometimes those trainings are a tad frustrating (all those kids being 6 and 7 ... I respect teachers that have to handle those kids much more haha) , so the guitar is the perfect outlet

Thanks for the site. I'm going to take a look. Auto-translate in the browser should be fine to navigate.
