TOP Soccer

A friend of us told us about TOP Soccer, a program for disabled children. Each child is paired with an able-bodied teenager, who runs around with them and plays soccer with them. Catherine is somewhat interested.

We have been to four sessions. Catherine is starting to get the idea that she is supposed to kick the ball with her feet.


Catherine loves to try to use the ball as a seat. This is actually a good activity to help with her balance. Her friend, F., was helping her by holding the ball still.

Catherine spends a lot of time sitting on the field and rolling the ball back and forth with other children. She actually lays down in the middle of the field quite often too.
