OK I'm bragging but |i don't care, I'm proud

My 10 yr. old scored his first hat trick (3 goals) yesterday, Hockey, but thats what we play. It's so special to see him walk the walk and talk the talk, the swagger, the "it was nothing" talk, the hidden smile that can't be hidden, jeez I love it, reminds me of myself 40 plus years ago. Who else has a kid that loves his/her sport and plays it full throttle? Is it not the most special thing going? Who else has kids that live, eat and sleep their sport?
My life for him.

When I read the title, I expected this to be a thread from Lubey. IIRC, his kid's into football, and is good at it.

My son is winding down his playing days in college but I can still remember the joy I felt when he recorded his first trick in mites....hockey is a great sport enjoy that i got to share with him over the years. I wish I could turn back the time and do it all over!
Enjoy the ride

Awesome... I a coach Tier 1 AAA 1999 team, thats a great age for them. They're not spoiled by trash talking and ESPN, they play for the love of the game and then they're still kids when the games are over. Oh by the way my guys are ranked in the top 10 in the US.

good job man, we need more people like you in sports. I wish I could coach but my job keeps me away from home. Team sports, the fun and excitement, the up's and down's make it all too special

It’s really my pleasure. My kid is only 3 ½ so he’s not really playing yet. I was a coach in the college ranks way back in the early 1990’s. % years ago I was sitting at a Flyers game with my dad and a buddy I had played men’s league with walked up and asked me if I would help him with an all star team of kids which was the state of PA’s entrant in the summer National AAA tourney. I was not sure if I wanted to work with young kids and deal with parents. Turned out to be a fantastic experience and working with kids and teaching them the game I love and a game that gave me so much has been a great experience. I got to play all over North America and a bit in Europe as a kid and it was a life shaping experience for me.
I am a bit jealous, I am looking forward to the day when I can see my son score his first hat trick. I have fond memories of my Dad sitting in the stands throughout my career.
