Carter has been playing floor hockey as one of his after school sports. The Athletic coach put together a group of boys and took them to play in a unihoc tournament at the Sultan’s School. The TAISM boys did a great job — especially considering they’ve been practicing with hockey sticks and a ball and unihoc is played with a puck and shorter, rounded ended sticks.
The nice thing about the iPhone is my camera is always with me, but it really struggles in gym lighting. It would have been better to have my big camera with the zoom, but this is what I got.
Snacking on the chapstick she found in my purse. Seriously, she puts it on her lips and eats it.

Fighting for the puck
Unfortunately I was moving too slowly and I missed his shot, but you can see that the video starts just as he scores.
The team: 4th and 5th grade boys. Girls play after school hockey as well, but this was a boys-only tournament. They didn’t win any games (they played 4), but they improved as the tournament went on.
And they had fun doing it.
