The Beaver Bounce & Game vs Johnson

The Beaver Bounce
Where did this crazy victory dance come from? The Pee Wees seem to do it after most goals, and parents are probably thinking "why is my kid bouncing?" or "what the heck is that?". Well, I have an answer for you, and I believe that this crazy dance will stick with the kids for years to come.

Two lunatics decided to post a video on YouTube where they drink white wine, eat shrimp, and hit on girls. Along with their weird antics they created this dance called the "Beaver Bounce". Click here to watch (I would rate this PG-13).

So how did our team start doing this? Coach Cramer has been notorious for getting people, no matter what the age and situation, to beaver bounce to any music that is playing. From Akon to Frank Sinatra, Brandon has the skill to raise the roof. Katie, Liv, Brandon and I come home from one of the women's games one day and have our adrenaline runnin' and decide we need to throw on some music and dance. Brandon says "ok, we're beaver bouncing!" And from there it was decided that all the boys must learn this beaver bounce technique, and man have they done a good job!

Go to the Pee Wee B2 blog to see pictures of the players beaver bouncing.

Game vs Johnson
Pee Wee's played Johnson tonight. After having three great scrimmages, I guess they were headed for a game that wasn't as great. Granted, they won 3-0, they were not playing as well as they could have. They skated down to Johnson's level instead of doing what they should have and made Johnson try and skate up to theirs. There were a few dumb penalties and some off-sides that should not have happened, but I think that they will pick it up with a scrimmage tomorrow and practices this weekend.

The boys in general are a really good team. One of the great things about coaching Pee Wees is that you can still teach them things and not just deal with emotions and cockiness. These kids have a chance to go a long way this season, and it will take a lot of hard work and determination. Do they have it? We'll see...
