Connor, in particular, has become fascinated with the game. All of the boys have improved since we first started. Today, Rowen even managed to get a couple of serves over the net. We had several longer rallies going, making the game a lot more fun than our first couple of outings.
We usually play doubles, alternating partners so that each of the boys has a chance to partner with me. The older boys came really close to beating Rowen and me this time. We also play a variety of singles matches. Today, Connor beat Trevor for the first time (which led to an unsurprising amount of smack talk--from both sides). We are still working on how to lose (or win) graciously.
As it looks like we are in for more good weather for the next week, I hope to continue getting in more badminton games with boys, and maybe even with Janelle on her days off.
