May 8th (Mother's Day!) was the beginning of the third session of Learn To Play Hockey this year. Today's class was extra long, as apparently nobody bothered to tell any of the coaches that the lessons had begun already. After a 30 minute "lesson" from one of the player's mom, a coach finally arrived and put them through their paces. After several skating drills, the class played a game at center ice. Drew scored another goal today, and has vastly improved his skating (not falling on purpose at all, and his accidental falls have also been greatly reduced!) and puck-handling skills since the beginning of the year. We'll see how this goes, but it may be getting time to move up to the next level soon!
