Sunshine and Sport

What a great weekend! Saturday was truely our day of sport. It started at 8.30 with Tommy and Ella playing their first hockey games for the season. Tommy scored a goal, after many years of playing it has clicked. Ella got a bit involved but was preferring to chew her mouth guard. The under 9's won (no Fletchers in that game but it looks like Tommy will be one of the reserves). Next up, under 11's, Danny's game at 10.30. We played Bulimba and it was a tight game. We won 3-2, I know it's not about the final score but they try so hard and they are the team I manage and help coach. We had quite a few new players as well. Very proud. Then, under 13's. We started with a team of 5 which slowly increased to 8 (addition of 2 players who we'd never met) so Danny, Paul, Brendan and Tom were added. The game started wiath Easts ready to go and us still counting our players (no positions yet), so Easts thought they were going to wipe the floor with us. WRONG! Since the score was 3 all and Danny scored 2 and Paul 1, who are u11's. Fantastic job. They really worked as a team. Wish I could bottle the feeling we felt. Then we went to watch one of scott's workmates play rugby union at Crosby Park. Wow what a day. Hence the relaxation today, just a bit of shopping - markets and woolies. I have cooked a few dinners and am about to go and get a start on the floors and ironing. Blog soon, Brontx
