T-Ball Time!

Paden is enrolled in Kaysville City's Camp Champ this spring. It is a 6 week program where he learns T-ball, Basketball, and then Soccer. He got a cute yellow shirt and then he gets a ball from each sport. He was awesome and had a blast...


Hitting the ball was the first station he went to. He is quite coordinated and could connect to the ball most of the time.


After he would hit it, he wanted to go and retrieve it too.


The next station was throwing. He would throw the ball to Ben from each of these cones. Learning to step and throw was something that took lots of practice, but he was really good. Notice the ball in the top left corner of the picture.


After throwing he went to a fielding station. They taught him to crouch in the ready position and not let the ball get past him. Doesn't he look like he is focused?

The final station was learning to catch the ball. They gave him a Velcro thing to try to catch with, this was not his favorite station; I don't think he liked the ball coming at his face.

I love it! He looks like he is so into it. He has a good follow through with his throw! (Speaking like I actually know something about throwing... yeah right)
